A thread for apples and the non- waisters

Thought I would start this one off as it is such an irritating shape to dress. I will pop down stuff that has worked for me. I am short (5.3 and 1/2 🙂) and between a size 12 - 14 depending on the cut. I have never had a waist and my hip bone and rib cage virtually touch. I have a broad ribcage which is another consideration.

Anyhoo would love to hear fellow apples best buys of late. Here's mine....

  1. swing dip hem vest from Next. Really flattering and will be excellent in the summer. I sized down to a 10 to get a more flattering line.

    2)cigarette jeans from Next. Sized down to a 12. Great cut and they don't stretch too much.

  2. relaxed skinny jeans. Next again. Size 12. So comfortable and great to roll up.

Great thread!

I tend to wear jeggings with long jumpers or long vest and shirt/cardigan over.

Any ideas for long tops for an evening out?

A thread for meeeee! Some great ideas here.

Could you help me find a dress for a wedding next weekend? I'm a stone heavier than I'd like to be and my friend lent me a lovely dress to wear but I've just tried it on and could cry, I looked like a lumpy sack of spuds with beads and sequins stuck on :(
