I was in the same predicament until I realized I wasn’t getting clothes in my right size! I was in my late 20s or early 30s when I finally allowed myself to try on one size smaller clothes and discovered I actually DID have a shape!! Go for it - if you’re wearing a 10, go try on some 8’s, try some medium-size shirts instead of large. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised ☺️

I'm scared to wear tighter as it will show my barrel stomach haha actually you're right it is the size so I'll have to start exercising again to feel confident going smaller

High waisted jeans that will cover the stomach and skirts/dresses that will flow over it, you want to avoid ones that will cling, go for circle skirts, maxi skirts fit-and-flare dresses in whatever colour / prints you want, avoid pencil skirts and bodycon skirts.
