So fed up

[eggandspoonrace]

I've money to spend and desperately want to buy new things for my wardrobe but I just can't find anything. This heat is proving really difficult because I like to be covered up but everything is viscose or polyester and makes me sweat or has stupid sleeves or is too short in the body. Is it just me

Not just you. If I find something made of cotton I weep tears of joy.

I've gained a lot of weight this year so I've had to buy new stuff. I've spent hours trawling websites and come away with a couple of linen trousers and some tops. Comfortable but dull and so very disappointing.

If I find something made of cotton I weep tears of joy.

Haha yes this is me!! It's sooo depressing isn't it.

I've also put on weight which isn't helping

Might be worth having a look at Massimo Dutti - they're still using natural fibres for a lot of their clothes.

I've recently bought some long 100% cotton tops from both Kitri and the Shirt Company.

If you have a ££ budget there's always Toast.

I’ve recently bought three dresses from Cos. 2 (£35 each) are cotton, the third is cotton elastase (£39). They have all washed well without twisting/bobbling/shrinking/widening etc etc.
