Is there ANYTHING in the shops at the moment that will look OK on a short, overweight 35 year old?

I'd like to pretend I'm asking for a 'friend' but it's me. I'm 5'2 and size 16. It's my birthday next week and I would love a new outfit.

I haven't had a good look but every where has leggings etc that I can rule out without even trying.

It doesn't have to be fashion-y, classic would be fine.

(I am working on the weight, by the way )

good bits? i've seen some really nice fine knitted cowl necked tunics around which would be lovely on a roundish pear shape. cos had a nice one and i think next another.

Not sure I have any 'good bits' at the moment.

Large boobs, huge spare tyre and wobbly post baby (10 month old dd2 ) tummy.
