Pear shaped but with big bust What Not To Wear??

[Chluro]

I tend to grab anything I like the look of and try it on rather than going out KNOWING what I ought to buy iyswim.

I have a slim upper body but with V V large bust (36J) and my legs are ok as is my bum, but my STOMACH is just ott out of control. Am working on it but need some inbetween clothes for the warmer weather. ATM am living in jeans, roll neck jumpers and then those over jumper sleeveless things or those cardigans with swingy body and arms. Not especially stylish!!!

so all you budding Mica or Suzannahs, come out of the woodwork

ok I am similar to you and was told never to wear a roll neck ( Trinny and Susannah) -you need to go for a v neck or wrap top if you have large bust. Also, I don't know what the swingy body cardi is but if its like a swing style cardi, then again this should be avoided as it covers up the bust and makes it shelf like! But they are so comfy to wear I know! I would be interested to find out advice others give as I am in need of a wardrobe overhaul.

yeah I know re roll neck but my house is right on the seafront and its bluddy cold

I do wear a lot of V necks and wrap tops but none fit me atm, so need more and there isn't much out there! I hate how places like Evans for example have such manky stuff in them! Even Next's additional sizes range is dire.

ARGH Definite gap in the market!

how about Ebay? You could try on there? If I lived by the sea I would wear big polo necks every day!!
