Colour. Slightly out of my depth here. Going on styling I've seen:

Current autumnal colours teal or a deep berry. Brown chunky ankle boots?

Grey skirt, long black boots for just a splash of colour?

Many thanks all, pickle.. also limited to what I can wear, I have no 'roll mechanism' in my ankles, which means I've sprained them about 125 times! Definitely going to look at the Reiner boots

Tried to take a picture with the Christmas tree this morning, but failed miserably! 😂

Wearing new look pinafore, primark bodysuit(I have it in every colour, it's so comfy and only £5!) and simply be knee high boots! 😊😍

Just catching up with all the posts & lovely outfits. Will be mostly dull & Cosy for me for the foreseeable.

Anyone got anything nice in Sainsbury's lately? Their double up on nectar points is on-just been for £100 of free wine so not sure if it will let me double up again for clothes but it's good to be prepared!

Going to the big smoke on Friday with my petite friend but looking forward to checking out that short next dress. Has anyone seen any other knee-ish length dresses with a lower neck?

Also, any recommendations for where to buy stretch type plain camisoles? Am loving being able to tuck into the snag tights to stop them riding up & twisting!

Spot the difference! Apologies to the younger posters who have no idea who this is! Cardigan thrifted, primark leggings and navy tunic from New look, boots from local independent store.

Diesel, I LOVE your boots! I’m jealous of all you normal-footed girls. My flapping clodders need EEE fitting shoes!

I’m in my new top and Tesco skinnies today. Still haven’t got a long mirror, so here’s a bad side view!

Dark is that a crochet scarf, lovingly made by someone? It's fab, and gives me a good idea... I was looking for something to help me wear my snag tights... a crochet snag multi scarf!
Mustard, green, purple, and teal. Yay.

Ilovethekitties · 13/11/2019 17:58

Size 20 from ASOS. Currently 35+3 and plus size, so hopefully will still look good after I've popped!

@ilovekitties You look BEAUTIFUL!

ringletsandtwiglets · 13/11/2019 18:16

Oops @Ilovethekitties

Ilovethekitties · 13/11/2019 18:18

Thanks! @ringletsandtwiglets

picklemepopcorn · 13/11/2019 18:40

Ooh, that's my kind of dress, kitties! Sloping off to ASOS...

TheSummoningDark · 13/11/2019 19:07

pickle, it is, and I'm the crocheter (crochetier?).

Your crochet snag multi scarf idea sounds amazing.

Lots of great pictures today. Grin at Diesel's picture, but if we're playing who wore it best, then definitely you.

picklemepopcorn · 13/11/2019 19:50

I love the ASOS site. Why haven't I seen it before? Proper models, and I even saw stretch marks.

Ilovethekitties · 13/11/2019 19:57

@picklemepopcorn it's a great site for plus size and fashion conscious ladies!

TheSummoningDark · 13/11/2019 20:41

Does anybody have any recommendations for cheap, wide fit wellies?

PaulHollywoodsleftbollockhair · 13/11/2019 20:50

Dunlop shorter mid calf ones are generous and don't split unlike other more expensive ones.

Merino wool jumper £1.50 and £1.00 skirt charity shop finds :)
