I am a size 18, my body shape is hourglass. I have a mum Tum which I hate). In the winter I wear leggings and then a top/dress that covers everything. Now the weather is getting warmer I am getting to hot in the clothes I wear.
How should I dress, any pointers from people
Love this cardigan but wouldn't no where to start with what would go with it.

I'm the same shape. I tend to avoid baggy clothes as they just swamp me and make me look even fatter.
I have to cover my fat bum but I choose layered clothes that fall just below my bottom, nothing too long.
Layers for summer are best, sleeveless teashirt with a kimono type thin jacket is my go to. There are so many nice kimono jackets out there - again I don't buy them too long and cotton traders are very good for basic T's and not too expensive.

You lucky thing, I'd love to be an hourglass!

Have you checked out MM Personal Styling on YouTube? She has a body shape master class series and dresses a live model in each one. I've picked up some really good tips!

She specialises in styling "everyday women" so is fairly relatable.
