People talk about shopping for 'gaps' in their wardrobes. Hw would I know if I had one? :(

It's obvious if I need to replace something that's worn out but what are these 'gaps' and how do I identify them?

Yes, I'm an idiot when it comes to shopping and wardrobes but I'm trying to learn

Oh I know that feeling! I am in the process of doing a Pinterest board with anything I like the look of to see if I can put together some stuff I like and will actually WEAR. Do you want to give us an idea of what you like ( or hate) and we can make some suggestions?

In the mean time Celtic and Co do more straight cords in lots of nice colours if, like me, you think skinnies are an abomination unto (chunky) thighs ...

I like the idea of yoga pants and a cashmere or merino or just lovely-feeling hoodie.

My current hoodie is really chunky sweatshirt material and makes me feels huge!

I've been wearing linen trousers 'at-home' through the warmer months but will change for autumn/winter into something warmer.

The yoga pants I've looked at are too thin and leave nothing to the imagination in the anatomy dept Shock

I would have no gaps if I could stay the same weight for more than 6 months. FIL passed away recently, I had to make an emergency trip to next (the horror) for funeral attire. Here in Ireland funerals take 3 days and start within 24 hrs of the person dying. Makes it a bit manic. When MIL got home from hospital, there was a stream of her friends with food and their best black outfits to loan. It was so sweet.
