Help i need a style
Hi
I need a style, im a size 18 but 5ft 11 tall so dont look as big (as some days i feel).
I perfer flat boots and shoes, but im struggling to but clothes together.
If i had my own way i would wear trainers and jean all the time, but i do want to change my style and love all the boho style thats about, but the good shops seem to stop at size 14-16
So i guess im asking for websites that do good clothing or shops (i live in Leeds). Or just a bit of help will do thanks

Most of their clothes go up to a size 18, sometimes 20, and they always seem to come up a bit large anyway. Perhaps try a few different styles to see what works for you from there, but if they don't look right, it's not going to be an expensive mistake, cos things are always so cheap in there!
Good luck with your shopping! Much as I hate them, those What Not to Wear girls aren't too bad. They've got a bit on the BBC Website that gives you some tips. I'm quite curvy and 5'8 and have found that hipsters divide up your hips which is good, pockets on the bum also, and deep v-necks divide up your chest area so you don't look like you've got a couple of airbags on. By your size, sounds like you can take quite bold things, contrasting colours, but bear in mind the old rules of verticals or diagonals for slimming rather than horizontals which widen. Bias cut skirts skim the figure rather than the big boho skirts which can widen you. A good pair of knee-length boots to go with everything too. A long scarf looks boho and again divides you up a bit.
I want to go shopping now!
