Before we start linen trousers are not a sensible suggestion!

So it's my sons 1st bday party on Sunday! He look fabulous, I just look fat and frumpy. I'm into my 30s and he's my 5th. Up until now a was an exceptionally hot totty mummy! It's all gone horribly wrong.

Stats are 5'2" although 5'6" in heels (which currently I can't avoid as my legs are like bumpy tree trunks)

32g boobs! Still bf, although won't be in the day so disregard that.

Size 10/12! Petiteish with fat thighs and arse! Oh exceptionally pear shape. Arms bingo style!

Ive left it too late for online and can go shopping tomorrow between 3.30-5 only!
Budget £100. I have a debenhams, monsoon, phase8 Laura Ashley, next, new look, m &s, topshop, Dorothy Perkins and other usual suspects! Nothing ad lovely as Zara!

Please help I don't want to look fat and horrid although am feeling it!

I shop in new look when I feel fat, the clothes are cheap and cheerful. I am sure you look lovely and enjoy the day

I need quite a lot of structure! Comfy will make me feel horrible.

Debenhams should have some control underwear stuff. Get a new bra as well, lifting the boobs clear of the tummy always helps

Yes I've got a good bra! An ultimo it's the pants than are a bother!

do you like this? it would probably come up less short on you and with black opaque tights your legs would be instantly slimmer and longer

or this? with cardigan to hide bingos

whoopsfailedagain · 20/09/2012 15:11

Thanks miss woo! The first link didn't work Sad not sure about the 2nd new look one, think it's a bit high in neck line. I may end up looking like a fat nun! If only I had thd hips for it it's v pretty though.

Oooo the topshop link finally worked! Now that does have potential! With some v high heels I may get away with that Wink
