I look in my wardrobe and I am so short of tops. I buy new tops in desperation only to sell them on ebay as they don't suit me and I end up never wearing them. I used to always have 1 or 2 go to tops that I'd feel great in but I haven't had that for years. I clearly need to change what I'm trying on and buying.
I'm a high waisted pear shape. Size 14. 5'7 Bra size 36F. Tops often end at the wrong place for me. I have a lot of wide hip between the top of my thigh and my - fairly nipped in - waist. If tops are too long, attention is drawn away from my waist and shows too much fabric covering my widest area. Just over the hip is best. Bi prefer scoop neck, round neck or v- neck. Hate anything that makes my boobs look matronly. I don't suit big patterns. Colours I like and suit are dark green, teal, navy, black, pewter, cream, proper red, burgundy, rust, some pinks.
Help! I'm looking for smart casual which I can wear to work and at weekends with jeans.
