    I'm heading off to Spain in two weeks and need to get some summer clothes

    I can be a size 14 up to an 18 (big boobs, weight goes onto stomach) I usually wear lots of layers, so I'm not sure what to buy that'll be hot weather appropriate but will make me feel comfortable?

    Any suggestions?

    It really depends where you plan going in Spain. I'm living in the south and generally feel like I'm melting from day to day. I couldn't leave the house in trousers, tights or leggings at this point so it's bare legs with dresses or shorts for now. The north is cooler but still pretty hot so to guarantee being comfortable I'd still avoid trousers etc.

    For a week maybe 3 dresses, 3 pairs of shorts and a couple of loose tshirts?

    hi there, i too am heading off in a few weeks and am of the same body shape as yourself - there is loads of nice summer stuff in the shops at the moment - dunnes have some really comfy cropped trousers and lose tee-shirts. Also have a look in new look as they have some affordable things and go up to the bigger sizes. I would advise to go with comfort for the days and bring a couple of cardigans for the night! Enjoy your holiday!

    Forever 21 and New look have great options for larger sizes and really inexpensive. If you're feeling a bit worried about showing lots of skin Maxi dresses are great, and can be really glam as well. Dunnes also have some really flattering swimwear at the moment with higher waists and nice fitting tops.
    Happy shopping and have a great trip!

    Definitely maxi dresses. Most are kind of 'loose' fitting and always have room to accomodate changing 'sizes' up/down.
    Also a few flowy skirts.
