Is like to look cosy and stylish instead of like a bag lady... what are your curvy must haves? Have you bought anything recently that you'd recommend? 👗

Where do you buy your woolly tights? I have fairly long legs and am size 16 and keep having to pull most up all the time!

I got the large in Matalan and Primark. They come up to my boobs Grin

Not found anything but.....joining 😊. I’m 5ft 6. Size 14 top and 16 bottom. Am wanting plain black/ navy blue/burgundy tube skirts to wear with opaque tights and slouchy jumpers. Can’t find any that on me, would be above knee but not showing my nethers, if I bend over.

Anyone?

PlaymobilPirate Mint Velvet have quite a few dresses that work with tights & boots.
Here. I like the cocoon dress in Bordeaux.

My favourite recent purchase is an absolute cheapy bargain but I love it.

Gold print skirt

I’ve worn it with a black jumper for our work lunch and with a biker jacket for a night out. It’s super flattering.

Have lost 2 stone, and still losing...everything is too big. Despite this, I'm still a size 16+. I'm going back to work after being retired for a year (I'm 67), but feel guilty about buying lots of new clothes. Anyone suggest a smart capsule wardrobe? Many thanks for any suggestions.
