Why don't you try one of the bigger department stores like Debenhams? I'm sure they have "personal shoppers" who are supposed to find stuff that suits you - no need to actually buy though...
Good idea Z. Next do a personal shopper service too - I think you said you like their trousers for length Ames so could be worth a try and as Z says, no obligation to buy. I'm considering trying it when (if ever) I go back to work
And for a key basic like black trousers/skirt, white tshirt etc that won't date its worth paying a bit more so they last as cheap can be a false economy because they fade/lose shape/the fabric wears or creases easily...26.2.19/14.1.19: T MC 3629.26/3629.26 : VM 0% 1050/13876.59 : W 0% 100/1485 = 4409.26/18990.85 =25.17%28.1.19/28.1.19 Hubs 0% £400/£2,977 =13.44%SPC 2019 #073

Thanks Bunny.
*goes to shop for boots and tops*Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0 -
I think tops like this are fun as well-would suit the rock chick in you as well, lol
I think you would look good in red as well. Also purple or a nice fresh blue or green. Colour is good on top as it draws the eye upward...

What should I wear for my interview tomorrow:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Oh and random question that popped into my head yesterday - does the stuff they skim to make skimmed/semi skimmed milk get used to make something else or is it binned?

Luc,
What they skim is the amount of 'cream' so the less cream, the more skimmed it becomes!

I quite like this but not sure if my bust'll look too big in it?
