Hi all

After a fairly crap week I want to go shopping on Sat.

I need some cool stuff to wear at the weekend or to work.

I don't own any leggings and was wondering about leggings and tops but what length tops? What shoes?

I normally wear dresses or suits with heels to work. Weekend jeans and boots or converse and a top. All fairly standard stuff.

I'm newly single and 35 and need some stuff to make me feel a bit cooler. May venture out to a few bars on sat night.

Am size 10 with E cups so blouses aren't great.

Budget about £200 I guess but would like quite a few things for that.

Any ideas very welcome! Smile

I'd go for tops that cover your bum if you're wearing leggings. If you go for jeggings you can wear shorter tops.
Layers can be good so a cami and a cardi or sweater? Jersey vest tops under sweaters look good but ate comfy. I'd wear ankle boots or pumps.
Try Zara and h&m.

Of go for tan or black, they tend to go with most outfits. Depend what style you like really! I like a low heel with a zip fastening and have a couple of pairs I switch between. I'll try and link the types I like.

I have been recently converted to Dorothy Perkins Bailey skinny jeans. They are really flattering and don't go baggy. They are around £22, which is a good price, I have got them in indigo and grey. I even feel a tiny bit trendy in the grey ones (waits to be told that grey jeans are soooo last season!)

Love these boots from Amazon, which I saw linked to on another thread...
