I need help badly. I have a VERY large stomach. Like I think it looks pregnant were it not so jiggly. I've been in kickboxing for over a year and have a very strong core, but my tummy won't go away. Even back when I was 135 lbs, it was bigger but it's just ridiculous now. I am a total apple shape, street size 16 jeans, 5'5" and about 215 lbs.
85% of the time I wear just the plain v-neck from Target. You know the one, and I've got a billion colors. But since it's cheap clothing they vary in length, or shrink without me putting them in the dryer, and I am pulling my shirt down always to keep my belly covered. My fiancee even pointed it out and THAT is embarrassing (he didn't do it to hurt my feelings or be mean, he just said I should find longer tees). The problem is I really don't want to spend a lot of money on my day-to-day clothing and I like having more than 10 shirts to choose from. My office is VERY casual and I wear one of those v-necks and jeans every day, tank under the shirt. Throw on a cardigan in the winter.
I know my basic style is pretty boring. But does anyone have any suggestions of stores or brands to look at that won't cost a lot? I know the "wear tunics or longer tops, wraps take away from the mid-section" jabber but I'd really like to just keep wearing basic v-neck tees. Old Navy is a no-go as their stuff is so cheap every XL or XXL is a different size than the one before.
Help? Also, suggestions on longer tanks to wear underneath my shirts would help too! Stretchy ones or lace bottoms are no good as they ride up.
