MissTraceyD on LTK

A very quick turn around to elevate a super casual look into something cute to go out in. This sports jacket stays in heavy rotation for good reason! It’s always an instant look! Heels to lift the flair denim skirt and we’re good to go! The jacket is @stradivarius heels are from @russellandbromley in store sale and the skirt is from the @zara winter sale. Bag is @maisonmargiela Links will be in my LTK (blue link in my bio under my profile pic) elevatedcasualstyle capsulewardrobe styleover30 outfitinspo londonstyle

A quick GRWM for work with a spring look. The london weather has been a mess but I’m choosing to dress for the weather I’d like to see and brave it in heeled sandals!! Heels will always lift a simple blouse and skirt look! The shirt is old @topshop the skirt is @marksandspencerstyle the sunglasses are @bottegavenetaworld the bag is @urbanrevivo and the shoes are from @asos.

I popped in to @marksandspencer for a broccoli and ended up picking up quite a bit more 🫣. There are some great pieces in for spring and summer including some really good denim pieces. Very happy with what I got! Have you tried any of these and are you popping in to get some new things for the warmer weather? #marksandspencer #styleover30 #stylishmum #minihaul #springfashion

Just got the keys to my new place and obviously celebrated the only way I know how… with a new pair of cute shoes! These are such a vibe from @johnlewis who have some special offers on at the moment!! Very happy with my celebration purchase! These will be so cute with a cropped jean this spring summer!! After I buy all my appliances I’ll be eating ice for the next month or so 😂 #newshoes #housepurchase #styleover30 #springfashion #londonstyle

Headed out for tonight’s event in all black with a pop of yellow! You can never go wrong with an all black fit and a punch of colour! This @urbanrevivo skirt is so much fun! I love the playful drama of the shape. Paired with this @zara high neck top and my fave @loewe heels for maximum impact! It’s a simple outfit but it’s definitely a lewk!! ! #styleover30 #shanghaistyle #allblackoutfit #blackgirlfashion #springstyleinspo

If you never have anything to wear, you might not be doing enough with the clothes you have. Here are a number of ways that I like to re-imagine this black slip dress from different occasions to different seasons. This is how you get good wear out of your clothes. Sorry the video gets blurry halfway through! No idea why😩. #stylehacks #styleover30 #capsulewardrobe #rewearyourclothes #springfashion

Let’s style this sports windbreaker jacket for work. Can we make it smart casual? I think it really works with the chinos and the oversized blazer coat! Jacket (top) and coat are both from @asos and the trousers were bought in the @zara winter sale. Would you wear your sports jacket to work?

The internet has been obsessed with the YSL sports jacket and it really is a lovely piece but the price is a lot!! We can definitely achieve a similar look with one of the other sports jackets currently available on the high street. It’s a fab addition to your elevated casual wardrobe. A very versatile piece and these options from @urbanrevivo @bershka @stradivarius and @asos are all great and affordable options! #styleover30 #ysljacket #capsulewardrobe #designerdupes #fashionhacks

The rugby shirt is a bit of a trend item at the moment but it definitely is a good classic wardrobe staple. It’s really versatile if you reimagine it with different things in your wardrobe. I picked this one up from the @urbanrevivo sale and you can get one pretty much anywhere. How do you like wearing yours? #stylehacks #capsulewardrobe #elevatedcasual #styleover30 #fashioninspo

A simple jeans and white tee outfit but make it 90s baddie! A wide leg jean, chunky shoe and scoop neck tee bring the vibe together. Trying to channel that effortless babe energy of Nia Long and Miss Janet from the 90s. How did I do? The jeans are from @zara 8727|222|401. Other items will be linked in LTK in my bio #jeansandtshirt #90sfashion #styleover30 #90sbaddie #elevatedcasual

It might be spring but the weather in London can still be a mixture so we can definitely still wear all black! The trench coat is a spring staple but you can mix it up by going with a different classic colour. I picked this one up from @weekdayofficial skirt boots and bag are all from @urbanrevivo Links will be in my LTK in my bio 💋#allblackoutfit #springoutfit #trenchcoatoutfit #styleover30 #fashioninspo

You get the most out of your wardrobe when you mix u how you use your items. We don’t have to have rigid categories for types of clothes. We make much more interesting combinations when we’re flexible with how we use them. Make sure you’re really getting bang for your buck with your clothes by reimagining ways they can work. Bear with me while I try getting the links up on LTK 🥰 #fashionhacks #capsulewardrobe #personalstyle #londonstyle #styleover30

A statement shoe is the ultimate style hack! It can help turn a nothing outfit into something. When in doubt about what to wear, throw on a shoe that you love and it might just give your whole outfit the boost it needs!! These @loewe pumps are one of my faves! Some fashion jewellery, red lippie and this @asos coat to set it all off and I am ready to go! #fashionhacks #styleover30 #ootd #elevatedcasual #statementshoes

GRWM for a day of meetings in a monochromatic look. There’s something quite chic about wearing one colour! Love a good shaped trouser and a contrast pump for effortless easy style! Nothing fussy in this outfit, just clean classic shapes. These @uniqlo trousers were such a find! #workoutfitinspo #styleover30 #personalstyle #capsulewardrobe #workoutfit

GRWM for girls night! Jeans and a cute top will always be a winning combo! Once I add a bold lip, some jewellery and a statement shoe… it’s game over! Elevated basics for the win every single time! This is my go-to cute dinner/drinks look. Pretty much everything I’m wearing is old but I will link alternatives to my LTK today. 💋 #ootn #personalstyle #styleover30 #londonstyle #goingoutoutfit

I realised I didn’t own a cinched blazer which could be a really useful core wardrobe staple so I ordered 3 different styles from @asos to see which one is my perfect fit. I only want to pick one so let me know which option you think I should go for. I think it’s between 2 and 3🤔. #cinchedblazer #fittedblazer #capsulewardrobe #styleover30 #personalstyle

Get ready with me to attend a fancy dinner. This look is more ‘elegant’ than my usual day to day but I still stick to my policy of elevating simple items. These £30 @bershka trousers can work for day and night time looks making them a perfect wardrobe staple- linked in my LTK in my bio. Gorgeous but simple asymmetric top in from @zara ref 4437/004/251. #styleover30 #occassionwear #personalstyle #daytonightlook #capsulewardrobe

GRWM to go to a Fashion Week event. When I need to get ready quickly, elevated casual is always my go-to. A red lip, statement boot and a cute bag can always lift the fit!! How did I do? Links to available items will be in my LTK linked in my bio❤️. #elevatedcasual #personalstyle #styleover30 #londonfashionweek #londonstyle

The weather in london is shocking right now but we have to keep the vibes of our outfits high!! I love playing around with different ways to wear a shirt and trousers. There’s always something interesting that can be created when you add in a new layering piece to elevate these work staples. These trousers from @bershka are in seriously heavy rotation and they’re the perfect all rounder! How do you jazz up your work staple looks? #personalstyle #workoutfitideas #businesscasualoutfit #styleover30 #londonstyle

Very realistic what I wear ferrying my kiddo around for an activity filled Saturday. I stay true to my sweatpants and sweatshirt uniform because it never lets me down for casual but put together vibes. These @bershka barrel ones are the best sweatpants and the shape hits so right. @marksandspencerstyle for the sweatshirt and jacket. All things linked in my LTK found in my bio ❤️ #casualstyle #mumstyle #styleover30 #capsulewardrobe #londonstyle

Let’s get dressed for work. Sometimes all you need is an extra layering piece to turn a pretty standard outfit into something a lot more interesting. This leather effect halter neck top from @zara (4387/089/800) is the perfect addition to this very safe work look. Links will be in my LTK - check my bio 💋#workoutfitinspo #personalstyle #styleover30 #smartcasual #ootd

I love a cheeky pop into @marksandspencer. Millennials it is our time now to embrace her! You can get really great things in there and the quality is always pretty top! Go have a lil look, it might surprise you. These are my fave finds when I popped in recently. This is not an ad, just saying keep an open mind for where you might find some of your next core wardrobe pieces. #marksandspencer #styleover30 #stylishmum #minihaul #personalstyle

GRWM to go to a work event tonight! Sometimes we think up an outfit and it doesn’t all work. The boots did not give me the vibe I was looking for. Do you think I made the right decision by switching them out?? Love a shirt and dress combo. The shirt is old @karen_millen and the dress is from @asos Shoes were @riverisland #ootd #blackgirlfashion #eventoutfit #styleover30 #fashioninspo

Same sweatshirt. Same sweatpants.
More ways to wear them.

We are building outfits and building range!

You don’t need a bigger wardrobe.
You need better combinations. The OG sweatshirt and sweatpants are from bershka! #personalstyle

Your casual items of clothing can always be elevated. Your shiny items can always be repurposed! Always mix and match your clothes to make full use of your wardrobe and get full bang for your buck! #elevatedcasualstyle #millennialstyle #workwardrobe #workoutfit #capsulewardrobe

I didn’t keep the full tracksuit and that’s the point.

Sometimes the smartest move isn’t forcing an outfit to work,
it’s spotting the piece that earns its place in your wardrobe.

This zip-up works with things I already own so it stays.

Style is editing, not commitment. #personalstyle #styleover30 #smartcasual #stylednottrendy #wardrobeediting

I wear sweatpants most days but I don’t want to feel like I’ve disappeared in them.

This is my casual outfit formula:

You don’t need lots of different clothes, you need a system that makes what you like work harder. #casualstyle #womenover35 #polishedcasual #mumstyle #personalstyle
