I'm losing weight and hoping to be a size 16/18 in time for our works christmas lunch. I really want something that shows off my weight loss, especially for those colleagues I don't like & fortunately don't see that often. Those who made little digs about my weight.
As it's a lunch, I don't think a dress would work, I'd look daft as no one else would be wearing one. Plus I have to work in the morning. So I'm looking for something I could wear that is both suitable for work, xmas lunch and follow up drinks.
I have no idea where to look or what to buy. It's hard to buy for a smaller size than I'm used to. My usual plus size shops all have clothes that are too tent like.
I have so far looked at Boden (too casual I think), New Look (too young), Evans (too old), Yours (too tent like) and Phase Eight (too dressy)
Help! Any suggestions?
I'm 5'5 with a long body and short legs. My legs always look like tree trunks because they are short. I tend to go for short length in trousers.
My mum is suggesting jumpsuits but I'm thinking of the pee-ing problem, plus so many of them are just dull black.
