But everywhere seems to be sold out. I m a size 14 so don't want the type that make you look preggers, as I am fairly large busted, and these types of tops can sometimes do that. I want to accentuate my waist, so would like something quite fitted. This is for my holidays in 3 weeks time and everywhere I look seem to be all sold out of summery clothes! Help please fellow A'Bers - much appreciated.

TIA

I am not considered plus size (I am actually a 12/14), would never shop there........Thank you for the advice anyway!
Have you looked on the Joe Browns site? Or Ebay?

Haven't actually Daffy, Joe Browns eh?
Will need to check it out - thank you!
Evans actually start at size 12 and it isn't a frumpy shop by any means. People seem to think it is a shop for overweight grannies. I don't shop there though because I think that clothes are overpriced.
Store21 had some and there are still a few on the sale rails in places like peacocks
I am a similar size to you and I love the Joe Browns tunics, they are generally fitted at the waist. You might try H&M too as their tops are often fitted and stretchy, so are very comfortable.
Evans start at a size 14 which is probably why bednobs suggested it since you said you were a 14. If you are a 12/14 but big busted why not look in Bravissimo. They do lovely tops and dresses for bigger busted ladies.
oops sorry LL I thought they started at a 14! :)

I always get teh impression they are frumpy clothes at Evans, I am only 32!!!
Lilac, I am 43 and I think Evans are frumpy, and VERY expensive as LL said.
Oxfam?

Thought so Daffy, thanks for that!
Tried out the Joe Brown and store 21, still a little bit "wifie-ish", am looking for something a little spangly, it's for my holidays, so something a little bitholiday-ish?! lol
Bought a couple of the type I think you're looking for in Peacocks. BHS has some nice ones too.

Any of these any good?

You could try googling for 'Holiday tunics' and browse the links.
You could try asos.com but there`s not a lot there. (It`s not a tunic but the beaded cami on page four of Tops is nice). Trouble is, everything`s in winter colours now. The "teen" shops like New Look, River Island etc would be your best bet as they have a few party type tops.
