I am a twin mom with skin, too. Actually I look like the Michelin man. I am 5'5", 42G bra. All of my weight is between my chest and hips. I find it hard to find clothes because I am between a 16/18 misses and a 16W. It's very depressing. I'm the exact way. I just got measured and I'm a 38j, 5 foot tall, too small for plus size, too chubby for regular sizes.

I do casual pretty much all the time; my workplace is a manufacturing plant, so it's pretty much casual dress unless there's a customer tour. And for the record, I'm 5 ft 4.5 inches, and curvy. I am trying to lose weight, but no matter what weight I am, I'm curvy.
I wear capri pants, I will occasionally wear jeans (it's too hot outside during the summer to wear jeans-- denim is just too heavy), and I wear a lot of casual skirts. Most of my skirts are about knee-length, and I have a few longer ones that are probably calf-length.
I wear mostly what could probably be called tee-shirts, I guess... knit shirts that pull over my head. They just have details that make them 'nicer' than your ordinary Hanes tee-shirt: they have either a nice print, a narrower neckband than a regular 'Hanes' tee shirt, or a rounder / wider neckline- something to make them more feminine seeming than an ordinary tee shirt would be. I have quite a large collection of shirts and tops, lol, but I get most of my clothes at the thrift stores, so it's not a huge amount of money, even if it is a huge collection of shirts. I do have a few polo shirts, as well.
I also have a number of tank tops, mostly solid-colored, and I wear them with either a light cardigan sweater over the top (the A/C inside the office is pretty chilly), or with a 'camp shirt' or cotton blouse open over the top.
Although I have a TON of shirts, I have some pretty basic skirts and capris (olive green, navy, chambray, denim), so most everything mixes and matches. My go-to colors seem to be blues, greens, with pinks and a few purples thrown in, and I have a few white knit tops in different styles.
And I do use Pinterest for outfit ideas.

I so love that others dress from Pinterest too! I can't accessorize /match to save my life!
