I am really struggling to find tops and a summery jacket. Have in mind a "lineny" blazer type jacket but need to bear in mind my 32ff norks and non existent waist helped along nicely by my spare tyre/muffin.
I'm a size 16/18 on top and a 12/14 on the bottom. Usual apple - skinnyish limbs and no arse but very blobby round my middle.
Purleeeese help inspire me and re-kindle a love of clothes shopping that I only vaguely remember.
Also, should apples wear belts - or not? I fear looking like a sack of spuds but dh is convinced that Gok Wan's advice is to belt up.
I've lost the plot stylewise and really hate my body sometimes!!!

I'm similar to you, albeit a bit chunkier on the limbs ... but still with 34g boobs and no bum!

I went shopping last weekend with and bought a sexy black dress, 3 tops and new jeans!! Even bought a lovely bracelet too! Sadly no jacket purchase to inspire you, but one piece of advice is to wear magic pants a la Gok... it has rekindled my love of clothes shopping, and made me feel a whole lot better about my blobby body.

If I were you I would def wear a belt, with a 32 back size, you must be tiny around the ribcage and that's worth showing off, especially if you are all sucked in with magic pants too

Neney,
Thanks so much. I must try a belt. A big one, do you think or a wee one?
Also, re the magic pants - do they stay over the muffin or roll down? I tried some once but they kept slipping down from under my boobs!!
Thanks so much for posting. I look at women with no boobs and jus think how lucky they are. Are you a Bravissimo fan? Jus seen their new summer collection online and some of it looks great just need to try it on with the magic knickers, eh?
