Just that really. Where do you look for ideas?

I'm mid-30s, holding onto 2st of cake baby weight and my hair and skin is a mess. Help, please!

Another recommendation for www.beautymouth.com. And not a blog, but Sali Hughes' columns in the Guardian are brilliant for skincare & make up. V similar approach to skincare to beautymouth but with some more high street suggestions mixed in with pricier stuff.

Blogs I like and go back to nearly every day are these:
Www.allwornoutblog.com
twentymumthing.wordpress.com/author/ambernectarine/

Both run by mumsnetters and S&B regulars

Kendi everyday
Putting me together
Atlantic Pacific

Lots of nice ideas, styles, different locations and mainly things that are affordable and practical.

I like a lot of pintrest boards too, I find them just as useful as blogs

Sorry to high jack your thread INeedThatForkOff, but can anybody recommend a blog by somebody that is at 14/16 size. Most of the blogs are size 8s in skinny jeans and I need something a bit like my shape for inspiration.

ShoeWhore · 11/09/2013 10:16

I think the Putting Me Together blog is good.

AphraBehn · 11/09/2013 10:41

KosherBacon Try WardrobeOxygen.

applecrumbleandcream · 11/09/2013 20:46

Kosher try What Laura loves although I think she is more beauty than fashion.

Jelloonsprings · 11/09/2013 23:32

Some other blogs - more vintagey/dresses and nice shoes than skinny jeans, if that's your thing, and not a size 8, although 3 of them blog about weight loss at wherearemyknees.blogspot.co.uk/

frocksandfroufrou.com
www.essbeevee.co.uk
htto://www.fatfrocks.com (although mid twenties not mid thirties)
www.amilliondresses.com/

Some of those also have a comprehensive list of blogs they like which might be worth looking at?
