Off to Florida this summer, couple of days in Miami then driving around the state.
I'm short and quite frankly frumpy. 5'2 and a size 16 I never manage that effortless, cool look. I'm always the slightly sweaty, red faced woman who has over colour coordinated and look like ive tried too hard and missed by a mile.
Cropped trousers are mumsy and frumpy and make me look even shorter and stumpier, vest tops and strappy tops although nice and cool show the bingo wings. I honestly don't know what to buy to go. We went two years ago and I wore longish shorts and vest tops and looked fine but mumsy and frumpy. Teamed with my Skechers for walking around the parks and I felt like someone's Nanna. I may be 44 but I'm not ready to look like that yet.
I want practical and cool for the parks but also effortless and stylish.
What can I buy? Should I be looking at dresses? Everything I look at is polyester or garish patterns. I'm really struggling. Some pointers on what to buy would be very gratefully recieved, thanks.
