A capsule range of vintage-inspired florals, fities skirts and 60s-inspired separates, it appealed instantly to me, so when Very got in touch to offer an item from their huge range for review, I knew I had to go with something from Diana's collection. I picked the Contrast Collar Printed Dress (£49) which I thought was very cute with its big pink buttons and collar.

And boots? Forget it. They all seem to be cut for women with insanely tiny ankles and calves. So I'm always impressed to see more retailers branching out into wider fit shoes and boots. Very.co.uk are the latest to take the plunge, and they carry a decent selection of wide fit shoes to compliment their size 16+ So Fabulous! range. I was lucky enough to be sent a pair to try recently...]]> http://www.biggirlsbrowse.com/blog/2010/01/big-girl-tries-very-co-uk-wide-fit-shoes/feed/ 1
