just been shopping

[i love diamonds]

I just went to Dorothy Perkins because they've got 20% off everything and I've had my eye on a coat I saw in a magazine the other week. They only had 2 size 10s and a size 16 and the 16 fits! I'm currently wearing a size 20 coat from there at the moment which didn't even do up not that long ago! This is the coat

Camel patch shearling trim coat - View All - Coats - Dorothy Perkins

It is a bit snug around the arms and around the belly but it does up! I'm going to keep it for when it gets colder and hopefully it will fit better then.

Hi....I like the coat too, though I'm a bit more boring and would have gone for black if available!
I'm thinking about getting a pleather jacket/ coat here at the mo ( no leather for me I'm a Veggie ! ) there have some gorgeous ones around here for under forty dollars....trying to hold off buying it for another month or so . Also have a New Look long coat for here when the temps really fall and the snow is past my knees!!!
I love clothes but have really lost my way with fashion, it's no fun when you are 18 stone plus and everything makes you look twenty years older..... But a new coat in SIZE 16 is brill....well done you

I know what you mean about losing your way with fashion Diva. I love clothes and fashion but I dress to cover myself up, so I never get to wear the trends. I'm 24 but I probably dress like I'm 54!

Ebay is great for hard to find plus size fashion, I was a 30/32 in a top and 28 bottom but I have gone down to 26 top and 22/24 bottom which is slightly easier to find, ebay I love for clothes

I know me too bunnyhops. It's really bad but since I was pregnant with my daughter I've carried on wearing granny pants! I started wearing them when I was pregnant because they were more comfortable and I'm still wearing them now nearly 5 years on. My poor oh! Lol!
