Jesus, can I buy the legs to go with the jumper too?? If I could have one that just goes to my ankles and covers up my dumpy little legs i’ll be buying it like a shot! Knit maxi dress anyone?

Could not agree with you more Not Just On the Inside.
I love to give them a plug as they are Irish but I am often pleasantly surprised when I have a look around the shop as they often have really cool stuff but the windows are never appealing for anyone under 50!
But it is good to shop Irish!

Love the red and navy pull and bear one – thanks for putting me onto to that – I never think of going into pull and bear for some reason.

Feck yous. I want the Karen millen one now. My car is in for service so def can’t afford this month. Great advice for pear shapes. I’m hour glass but with generous boobs. This advice is spot on.

Hi Jane, you are right about knitwear anyway it is so versitile and i love the snuggly feeling that it gives you over winter. Your selection is great the Frebh Connection one with the eye is one for me. Thanks for the tips

Hey Volume&gloss

Its all about texture and balancing your proportions.
Choose finer knit garments. Knits with some stretch in them will cling to your curves in a more flatteringly way.
Cardigans that button or tie just under the bust – empire line – then fall away from the body will give you better balance.
Avoid belted cardigans and if it has one cut the loops off and dump the belt and this will give you a leaner silhouette.
Longer length knits that fall to at least your hip are best.
Dark colours are more forgiving, but don’t think just black. Try shades of dark green, charcoal grey, chocolate brown or navy.
V -necks slim down a larger bust and prevent you from looking top heavy.

Hope that helps!
