I have a holiday coming up and some dates and I'm really struggling to find anything to wear.

Everything in the shops and online seems to be nude/olive green/black/white and floaty/floral/frilly. I can't do any of those - they make me look like I'm in drag.

I'm 40-odd and look a bit like Princess Charlene of Monaco except not as tall (5'6") and sadly not as pretty but I've got the broad shoulders and slim hips ifswim. I look like a swimmer / tennis player.

It's the casual outfits (day) and the casual but nice (night at the pub/restaurant) I'm struggling with. If I wanted something for a wedding it'd be easy.

Any suggestions? I've recently ordered a load of stuff from ASOS, Next, Boden, Warehouse and Oasis and it's all had to go back. Sad

I spent a whole day at the Metro Centre in Gateshead last week and couldn't find a thing although I loved everything in Karen Millen
