Like the striped ones but a def no one me with boobs!

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 29/03/2015 20:34

I'm busty but don't mind stripes tbh - depends on the fabric and the shape though.

MaryWestmacott · 29/03/2015 20:35

nilbyname - I'm with you for the denim sack big bag style - it's a nice alternative to all the summer clothes that are so unforgiving for the mummy tummy.

I actually quite like the first Next one, but then I'm very short so it'll be close to my knee length and has sleeves, so for spring days I won't need a cardie over the top.

Love the stripey Per Una one! I can't do short with bare legs, not with my wrinkly old knees.

Saw this from Esprit in a blog recently, which looks quite useful.

I think expensive fabric stripes I can just about do really like them though

Greengardenpixie · 29/03/2015 21:34

That would look totally fine with leggings and boots.

Greengardenpixie · 29/03/2015 21:36

This is fab:

I have it, covers a multitude of sins and is a lovely material. I am a 12 and ordered the large as its the only one they had and its fine.

Greengardenpixie · 29/03/2015 21:37

Oh, i wore it with leggings and biker boots. I felt good in it!

I like the Cheap and Cheerful one, Tethers.

stillwearingaredribbon · 29/03/2015 22:27

I love the cheap and cheerful, only in bloody small and smaller though

tethersend · 29/03/2015 22:32

Sorry, Euph, but I'm not over-fond of those.

I've looked on every shoe shop site I can think of and haven't yet found a single pair of the kind I want.

dangerrabbit · 29/03/2015 22:57

Has cos been mentioned yet?
