help me buy a summer wardrobe please

[MostlyCake]

I have one pair if shorts and the crappy sports tshirt and that's it! I'm going to boil alive if I have to spend one more day in jeans....

I'm looking for reasonably long shorts, mid thigh to above knee level I guess and some nice tops which aren't sports tops.

I need good value as well as I'm going to have to buy a few things at once....

I'm a 14-16 on the bottom and a 18 probably on top so nothing skin tight please!

Any suggestions?

Boden have some nice shorts in 2 lengths - nice stretch in the material

Next chino shorts here

The Gap has a lovely summery selection this season in denim, soft white cottons, pinks, greys, stripes. Sale on too I think.

Thanks everyone! sorry for the long delay in replying,umy phone is playing up...

I picked up a couple of these fab t-shirts from next, lots of prints and colours..www.next.co.uk/g632012s1#678762g63

H and m have some nice clothes.

Dorothy Perkins have some really good stuff in at the moment - tops and shorts. I also picked up several sundresses in M&Co and gap have some really good printed three-quarterlengths too love these.

I agree , DP have defiantly improved. They've got some really nice clothes. I'd got out of the habit of looking there, but really like their current range.

I used to like DP but the clothes seemed to get a bit cheap looking for a while, all polyester and other static type fabric.

I'll have a look again though!
