Hi...
I usually avoid this section, but, desperate times etc. etc.

I have no idea where to start with regards to style and fashion, ive always just "been me". Im one of those people who when makes an effort gets all the "ooOOooh, where are you going?" Im at an awkward age I think aswell... because im a mum, I dont really want to dress "studenty" , but, I dont want to dress like im ashamed of my age. Im totally starting from scratch and am devoid of any stylish ideologies, so, please help me! Ill do anything you tell me

Thanks in advance if you respond to my plea

Sorry, Quootie. Didn't want to embarrass you, it'll be easier to suggest shapes etc if we have a vague idea of the physical you, iyswim. Am I right in thinking that you are a SAHM with a young baby DS ?

Ah, only 20. You can still get away with the more 'fashionable' items then.

Goodness, will you consider me as an emergency? Pretty please?
31, 5', 11(bang in between 10 and 12), thinnish with baggy tummy.
Hair partially grown out - looks AWFUL but can't face morbid fear of hairdressers to go back to short and spiky.
