What would you like to wear?

[Roussette]

I was chatting with some girlfriends the other day and we were talking about different outfits we would like to be able to wear but really couldn't... either because of size, height, body shape etc.

My one style I would love to wear but feel I can't is a jumpsuit. Maybe floral with high heels. My stomach is too fat and my arse is too broad (but I'm working on it!)

Anyone else covet a particular style but just can't get away with it?

Shorts. My legs are a disaster. They were fine in my 20s, but white. Now they are flabby and white with blue veins. Uggggghhh.
Halter necks. They suit me but give me headaches and also require strapless bras.

Sleeveless tops and dresses.
My arms are like Sumo wrestlers.

I wasn't convinced I could wear a jumpsuit (size 18, short) but I bought this last week and it is so flattering.

Those boyfriend style jeans. My legs are chunky all the way down so boyfriend jeans look like skinny jeans on me. In fact I’d just like to be able to wear a knee length dress. Anything that shows my legs is a no-no. I try to tell myself if I wasn’t carrying my excess weight on my legs it would just be on another part of my body and I’d hate that bit instead....

@Rousette where are those printed trousers from? I know someone who would love them!

I would love to be able to wear sleeveless stops/spaghetti strap things/shift dresses- I am slim and very body confident on the whole but have very broad shoulders so all of the above make me look a bit like a rugby player.

It’s very frustrating because no mater how many hours I put in at the gym/how strict I am with my diet/how much money I can afford to spend on surgery- literally nothing can be done to correct broad shoulders so I’m stuck with them!

Peach I don't know where they're from! I just googled flowery palazzo pants and up they came!

villandry I'm liking that jumpsuit!

Ok thanks @Rousette, I I’ll show her the picture anyway!

Those lovely, peasanty brodae englais off the shoulder flouncy dresses or those with spagetti or tie straps. They look beautiful if you’re a size 6.

I look like my uncle Tom in drag when I wear them. I have shot putter shoulders, guns and awsome forearms so Ive been told.

Shorts. They look so convenient but my legs are so fat and crooked.

Wearing shorts can be the crime of the century unless you're tiny, I think!
