My wardrobe is limited. My budget even more so. Shall I just give up and become a naturist?

I have one pair of (RIver Island) jeans. My other pair died. I have a few skirts. A pair of black trousers. and tops of vrious styles and colours.
what do i need to get the most bang for my buck?

what's your life like? Small children? work?

what kind of size are you? what look do you aspire to?

As a basic given that summer is coming, I'd go for one new pair of jeans, a dress, a good pair of shoes (wedges?) and a few cardis and cami tops.....you can combine those together and also with what you have

What sort of budget do you have in total? if your budget is limited I'd suggest a trip to TK Maxx for a rummage, and also New Look (their jeans are great and only about 10 quid).

go to charity shops in posh areas

I'm SAHM. 2.6yo DS.
5'8"
165lbs(ish)
usually size 14.
DD bust, no waist, long legs.

I've tried new look but their jeans make me look huge. that's why i tend to get river island, they are the most flattering (though this season's jeans aren't very nice there!)

I mostly just need kicking baout clothes. nothing too fancy, toddlers tend to mess things!

not sure about over all budget. I'm just going to pick up pieces as i see them (and can afford them!) but need some hints!

You really need Mrs Badger - she'll sort you out in a jiffy, but I can give you my sort of take.

Bright primary colours for tops are very In this year and what I'm going for. THink yellow, pink fitted cardi tops which I would say wear with a cami underneath and jeans.

A tunic top or two...kind of floaty hippy style.

Some cork wedges as look good with jeans and skirts.

I've got a couple of a line dresses too for the summer as are easy to just pull on, bung a cardi on the top and go.

For actual items someone else can maybe help. i don't lve in the UK, so although I get to dash into the shops periodically when I'm over for work, I don't really have a good overall picture of what's available on the high street at the moment
