Are there style blogs for women that look like me?

I sometimes look up fashion and style blogs but they never seem geared to women like me. The bloggers are glossy and slim and young and v fashionable.
I am 37, size 12/14, don't wear heels or makeup and I don't really do fashion, but i like clothes.
I liked a lot of stuff in the quirky clothes thread. I have a pair of yellow suede hotter brogues that i adore. I also love Irregular Choice shoes but they are v uncomfortable on me.
I like 40s and 50s style tight dresses. Bright colourful printed clothes. I have a pair of loud trews that I love but also like ordinary jeans. I like bright tights and headscarves. I like joe browns clothes and mantaray and lindybop loves. I often wear superhero t shirts. I like leopard print a lot. I refuse to buy polyester anymore.
I used to be an hourglass shape but 2 kids later I'm more pear shaped.

Where can i find style inspiration for someone like me?

Thank you. The prints are nice but the dresses are shapeless. I don't want to look like I'm wearing a sack.

You might like Erica Davies, she's on instagram, her blog is The Edited. She likes colour and leopard print!
