Hi,
Sorry this turns into a rant.
I'm going crazy trying to find clothes that i am prepared to wear. Basingstoke seems to have a whole 10 different items to choose from. I've been to Reading and love H&M and Mamas and Papas(bit expensive) but have found that their range is too small. The mothercare and dorothy perkins are for bigger people- taller and rounder - i am only 5ft. Debenhams range is also really small.
I only want a few simple t shirts, work tops and will need a dress for a wedding that i have to go to at the beginning of july when i will be 36 weeks. As many people have already said they seem to sell dull, black dresses which is hardly apt for a wedding. I don't want to buy online because i have found that loads of clothes that i try on in shops just don't fit.
I am going to try Blooming Marvellous in Winchester but don't want to spend all my free time travelling to different cities just to find that there is only one shop in each. I was in mothercare the other day looking for some underwear. All the pants were in size 16/18 and if there were any bras in my size they were out of my reach and as usual the staff are no where to be seen.
I'm happy to try out Southampton, Windsor or anywhere within about an hour as long as when i get there there is more than one shop to look around!
Sorry for the rant. I've searched on this topic but am hoping that people will know of good shops in my area.
Any help greatly appreciated as i am getting a bit down about not being able to find anything.
