The styles in shops seem to be aimed at every age group but mine! Argh!

[QueenCess]

I don't like jeans, esp loathe skinny ones. I don't like tunics and leggings as I am rectangle shaped/apple and I look pregnant if I wear these. I am on the petite side for height at 5"3 and a size 16.

I don't want clothes that my Mum would wear ( per una, Kaliko and Hobbs) and I don't want fussy stuff. I favour classic monocrome stuff in a grey/ black/ red / navy palette.

I am 37 and not interested in fashion but rather style suitable for my age. There seems to be little between trendy twenties and the stuff that those women wear from 'Loose Women'. Neither are looks I wish to emulate.

Where the hell can I shop? Anyone else experiencing this?

Sorry for being grumpy with you op. I do sympathise really. But this idea that your mum and her age group are all content to shop at Per Una really pisses me off.

I would say it's indirectly age related in that your body doesn't stay the same but the real game changers are events like pregnancy, child birth and the menopause.

I agree Whistles quality is terrible these for the price which is a shame as I think they do that low key cool thing really well.

Baukjen's another possibility.

I'm 10 years older than you. Agree with Flos list, also Hush and Finery might be worth looking at.

Ancient thread alert.....
