Really need summer tops in size 18. Recommendations please.

[peachesandpickles]

I am short and appley. Arms, shoulders, boobs not too bad and don't mind sleeveless but I have a lot of my weight around tummy.

I usually wear leggings and tunics or dresses but I have a few skirts I'd love to wear this summer.

Being short the length is very important. I look like a barrel in a skirt and a too long top but I also need it just long enough to disguise lower tummy area.

I've tried on lots of different things but to no avail.

Has anyone any recommendations for me? All colours, prices etc welcome so that I can get an idea of what to look for.

Thanks

Hopeful bump.

have a look at red herring in debenhams, i bought a couple of funky swing tops in there recently, one with parrot print which is cute, not expensive and flattering for my 16 / 18 size

i have a really lovely swingy top from monsoon from last year

how about something like \link{http://uk.monsoon.co.uk/view/product/uk_catalog/mon_1,mon_1.3/5232421353\this}

Love the Monsoon top and would wear it with jeans but my skirts are a-line so think I need a more fitted shape.

I'll look at Red Herring thanks.
