UPDATE: I tried on another dress and I think we have a winner!

Original post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/AusFemaleFashion/s/UHu7evmeTR

Thank you everyone for your feedback on my original post about whether the ALÉMAIS Westwood dress was too much for a country themed charity lunch!

I went shopping today and tried on another ALÉMAIS dress, and I think I actually prefer this one!

I felt much more confident in it, and I think it’s a bit more flattering on my figure. It also feels more me.

The only minor adjustment required was hoiking the girls up a bit 🍈 🍈

So, what do we think? Is this one the winner, or the original Westwood?

I appreciate the feedback!

I feel so messy

I used to be fashionable, always dressed well and had my hair and make up on point. Sometime in the last few years I have let everything go. My work posted a media interview I did last week and when I saw it I almost cried. I looked sweaty, jowly, my teeth are crooked (they have weirdly been getting crooked the last few years) and my skin was all shiny and sallow like I had liver problems.

I dress in black pants and long sleeve shirts at work and even that looks messy. I'm 5"2 and weigh 55kg which is 5 more than I used to be. Healthy weight but it makes me look like a teapot.

All pants give me a huge belly as they are all high rise and on my petite body that just enhances the bulge. I can't find low rise or med pants anywhere and all petite pants are just shorter inseam which I can get done at the tailor so it's useless.

I think I know what to do make-up wise now and I need to get a new topper so I'm saving for that (alopecia started a few years ago too) but they are so expensive. But clothes I just feel everything I wear turns messy on me.

Any advice appreciated

Afends dress

Hey everyone. I few weeks ago I posted about the afends dress, the seersucker maxi dress. I ended up buying it in white off depop, it seems perfect for beach cover up. Very sheer though so I'll probably get it in black. I went on their website I ordered this maxi dress, as I wanted something with sleeves too. BUT I'm feeling frumpy, I wouldn't usually buy a check print dress as it's not my look but they didn't have plain white or blue etc. I'm actually thinking of attempting to dye it. I'm also a year post partum and maybe I'm just not feeling it because it really shows my pear shape? I dunno do you think a block colour would make it less frumpy? Excuse my daughter's mess room

Same size, same style. Big difference.

After seeing a post in here the other day about sizing discrepancies I decided to compare my Nobody jeans as I use to religiously buy this brand only, but in the last few years quality has gone down and sizing is getting worse and worse.
Exact same size and style, one fits like a 24 and is too snug and the other swims on me. The original pair I tried on in store and still have is the only one I would say fits like a 26"
Absurd when so many people rely on consistency to do online shopping.

Myer deserves to die.

I recently caved and ordered some Robert Gordon items online with Myer. Sigh.

I ordered a butter dish, mugs, sugar dish and then realised the matching milk/creamer was in store only. I try to call customer service for assistance but that’s a complete waste of time.

So I order another creamer that doesn’t exactly match. So I’m already irritated.

Now this is 5 days later and I get a message from Myer saying that ONE of my items is ready to post.

That the actual fuck is this store doing? How can they possibly hope to survive this economy while their service model is so completely inept?

I’m never ordering from Myer again. I live in regional Victoria and I buy SO much online but I’m done. 🫠

What is this?

Talking about seeing shoes on a foot, would love to see this on a model. What is this? Little dogs will be very exposed. Have seen a similar model from a few brands pop up now.

Where are we getting our handbags from?

Is it just me or is it impossible to find decent sized handbags at the moment? I ordered a gorg status anxiety bag in the DJs sales last weekend and I’ve just picked it up and it’s tiny!! Completely my fault for not measuring but the listing said it comfortably fits an iPad, yeah no.

Anywho where are we all getting our handbags from? I’m looking for something that is big enough to fit my water bottle, wallet, phone and snacks for the kids. Maybe a nappy and pack of wipes too. It needs to have two straps (v important for when carrying kids iykyk) and zips closed.

I don’t mind spending a bit to get something nice as this will be a treat for myself after exclusively using a nappy bag for the past 3-4 years. I’m also open to second hand but I don’t know what to search for!
