knee high boots, I have really wide calves and can't find boots that fit. Many years ago when I was young I was trying on boots in Miss Selfridge and struggling in vain to get the zip done up and will never forget the sales assistant telling me "These are fashion boots and you don;t have fashion legs"

Peep toe shoes, I have a long second toe and they always look awful in peep toe shoes, and pointed shoes my feet just wouldn't let me too painful, can't wear any full shoes, I go from boots in the winter to flat sandals in summer, I don't own one pair of full shoes. Luckily I can wear trainers.

Anything high necked. Pastel colours. Black.

Anything low cut at the front or that has gaping arm holes at the side . I’ve had a double mastectomy and have no breasts.

The combination of frilly with a high neck, and empire line dresses. I’m slim enough but I have big solid boobs and I just look frumpy in those styles.
