Long skirts with blouses and boots can look lovely. I just found long skirts at a clearance centre, 2 for $5CAD, and bought 7 of them with the intent of wearing some with winter boots at work. They look pretty and they are super comfy!
Just wanted to sat I'm the same way...no junk in the trunk, but waaay too much in the front. I hate jeans, and I have to wear them for work. Nothing fits except elastic. I have to be sure that my tops are long to cover up the tummy.
