Help!
I'm a size 16-18, and only just 5foot tall (or short)... where can I find beautiful clothes which won't cost the absolute earth? I adore the Vivien of Holloway dresses, but as I'm a housewife I'll never really be able to justify or budget for a new piece. Hay-ulp! Lol. xx

Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs.

I think the Vivan of Holloway sale is still on their website so you might be lucky and find a bargain. Also try looking regularly on eBay, I get all sorts of great deals there!

Oh well, I'll just keep my fingers crossed for eBay. Lol!!Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs.

Set up an eBay auto-serach. Its really easy and it emails you when soemthing comes up rather than you having to check it every other day.

i struggle finding yummy clothes in my size too, i end up making a lot of mine but that still works out dear and theres always the drama of worrying your seams are gonna give out on the dancefloor
...there are other lovely retailers too but again its the price thing...wouldnt it be nice to have somewhere like a swapshop or somehting where you could donate stuff and rackup points or credits or something and end up with a SCRUMPTIOUS outfit in return. xxxxx
