Help! Ive lost a bit of weight recently and have gone down from a tight size 22 to a size 16/18 depending on the shop. I've got a way to go still, but as it is, most of my clothes are having to go as they are too big. Ive got away with it in summer as I've been slowly replacing as I've been losing. However ive realised my plan of 'all these clothes will look fine really loose' is entirely wrong, and I am going to need a lot of new stuff for winter.
So basically I'm looking for recommendations of shops I can buy some reasonably good quality jumpers, cardis and dresses from for not very much money. They only need to do me one winter as hopefully i'll be smaller again, or even at goal, by the next one. I've been v nervous about going into shops that I had previously not been able to squeeze into things in, and seem to just be stuck on a neverending loop of New Look, Dorothy Perkins, and the local supermarkets. Any advice would be very much appreciated!
