How to do that French/minimalist style thing when your body is shot from having children

[IwankaTramp]

Top tips much appreciated as well as good finds.

Thought I would start a thread for those of us struggling with the heat and not adverse to the odd maxi dress to take the stress out of summer dressing as well as a flappy linen pair of trousers. Huge knicker wearers United.

Thinking of capsule stuff in a neutral palette.....

Some stuff I am hoping to hunt down in as natural fibres as possible are:

1)Massive knickers that come down mid thigh, pull the stomach in a bit but not so high they are ribcage covering.

2. swing top vests in linen that are below hip length on navy, black, grey and white.

3. plain cotton tunics in same shades as above.

Can’t help,but need help

Have you looked at Poetry? They do beautiful linen/natural fibre clothing, and I always love the simple lines. They got a fair few linen vests.

Dunno about clothes, but the best, softest, most wonderous knickers for any outfit are the big cotton maxi knickers from John Lewis. In nude. They make my flabby midriff happy every day.

Skinny jeans plus oversized shirt

Works well for me!
