Help with shopping

I really don’t enjoy shopping. I can’t find anything that suits me at all. I’m quite pear shaped and small chested. Everything seems to be ill fitting (eg Primark) or very tight skinny fitting.

I’m looking for a dress for a night out and some underwear for Valentine’s Day. Tried a few places for underwear but nothing in my size - 34B seems only attractive fancy underwear can be bought in larger sizes????

So depressing. What can I do? I’ve thought about personal shopper in the past at John Lewis but that got cancelled due to covid and I’m now too nervous about shopping to try it. Literally when I walk into a shop I start feeling sick, force myself to try something on and just feel awful usually looks terrible, give up and come home. How do other people enjoy shopping?

I think it’s because I’m out of proportion, very small top half and large stomach and thighs, nothing looks good.

A lot of my usual places to shop (pre covid) have closed down. I’ve thought about online shopping but I reackon I’d end up returning most/all of it and have to pay for postage etc.

What to do???
