HELP!!! fashion advice for a middle aged woman please?

help! i am a size 18 middle aged woman who needs advice on fashion. i am fine when it comes to formal wear but am totally clueless when it comes to something to wear for an evening out at the pub?


i go with my friend who is much slimmer and prettier,and she says so as well so i know i am not just imagining it i know i will never look as good as she does but i would love to go and not feel so out of place and ';boring';


i usually wear black trousers and a top but would love to be a bit more trendy without going over the top. my best feature is my bustwhich is large 40d but it is still pert and not droopy and i have a slim but short waist.i have very long legs which are not bad but i have a BIG bum and i dont like my arms and thighs.


i am 44 and have been married for 25 years.


i would appreciate any advice very much.


thankyou.HELP!!! fashion advice for a middle aged woman please?

My advice would be ....ditch the 'friend'!!
the black trousers have to go, because women assume that black makes the appear slimmer but other colours can do the job.





whatever you do, do not wear jeans ever. Try wearing a skirt that is tailoured, like a tulip skirt or one with some sort of structuring that pulls you in at the waist, and wear it with a chunky belt.





or if you love wearing trousers, maybe get osme in brown, or grey, or maybe pinstripe, tweed. experiment with textures and style, and maybe get some that are slimming and dont flare out at the bottom





a good way to look trendy effotlesy is to wear jewellery like beady necklaces, a silk scarf tie round the neck and bangles.





you could buy some shrugs/bolero things too to jazz up outfits.





You could try wearing those skinny jeans with the boots tucked into the jeans, and get some nice knee length boots with a nice heel to give you height and definition.
stick to wearing nice trousers, and to hide your bum get one of those mid thigh dresses to wear as a top over the trousers, the chiffony sixties types with the long puffy sleeves. abstract black and white is a good look at the moment.


My sister in law sounds like you and she wore these at Christmas and looked stunning.


Wear a long chunky necklace and matching earrings.





With mates like her you don't need enemies.
