What about this look? See catwalk video. That top's really flattering just because of the gathering at the bust. With a decent bra, of course. Haircut, colour (bit of gold/red) and earrings and accessories. Don't think white is great on you, but warmer colours would look great because of your nice colouring (same as mine)

TMMJ - umm well my boobs are a 34G and I have a 26 inch waist. Although they might have gone down to a 34F now, I've lost a few pounds in the last week.

RibenaBerry · 13/09/2007 21:00

Nemo, are you still here or have you given up on us and gone to watch telly?

lulumama · 13/09/2007 21:01

fraid that top is not good

more of a sleeve is better short sleeves/ no sleeves very unoforgiving/ unflattering

TTMJ - I didn't say they were up did I? Actually I have some very similar curtains in the bag to go to Oxfam (when we came here there was a lot of chintz (or as I like to call it 'shitz')

If you look at my profile pics you'll see my house, it's the sort of house where chintz would have been acceptable. Until I came. Now we have handmade cream drapes which are much more tasteful.

Simple but well draped and tailored tops can make a world of difference. this is a very basic top but it shows off yer norks while skimming arms and waist.

RibenaBerry · 13/09/2007 21:12

Right, if Nemo's gone, I'm off for some tea. Byeee

layers in hair, maybe lighter colour definitely

you need to lose some weight, sorry but there you go, everyone seems to be skipping round this one but I am not polite

do you have a Primark near you? we have a HUGE one in Manchester, I will drag you round and be Trinny if you like. You could get a new wardrobe for about £70 (if that).
