Why bother with accessories?

…. So many reasons!! To add interest and personality, to finish off your outfit, to create a pulled together look, to draw attention to a part of your body and away from another, to define your waist, to break up a neckline or colours that aren’t quite right … the list goes on!

But in short it’s always a good idea 👌👌

Sharing my secret layering solutions as there’s no need to compromise on style when you’re keeping warm!

I size up in some for a looser fit as per the video

And here is the reel to accompany yesterday’s Instagram story so you can see them in action and addressing the winter footwear questions too!!

It’s a style I have bought for lots of my clients as it comes in 3 leg lengths - 26/28/30 inseam and waist sizes 23-32

I have the 26” inseam as I’m 5ft2
Wearing Long Live the Queen and Sprout

Multiple washes available too.

It’s an ankle length style so you want it to sit at the top of the ankle bone.

Dress up or down 🙌🙌

Autumn outfits🧣

You don’t need to compromise on style and comfort because you can have both with Air & Grace this autumn/winter AD

So here are the 5 styles your feet and your wardrobe need so you can build successful outfits for every occasion 👌

I’ve been buying Air & Grace footwear for my clients for years because their patented tender loving air footbed technology makes them super comfortable and cushioned. And if you’ve followed me for a while you’ll have seen me recommend the Anais which I have worn and loved over tens of thousands of steps.

And with inclusive sizing ranging from 36-44, I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I’ve linked all the styles in this reel plus a few others that I have talked about on my Instagram stories. Many come in other colour options too.

It’s the smart boot that will work with all your trailers and jeans as well as dresses and skirts if they are the right length…

It’s a hard working versatile option. I’ve linked alternatives of different colours/price points too.

These are a great trouser that I’ve bought for clients - comfortable as they are made from ponte so have some stretch as it’s a heavy weight jersey.

Ideal smart casual style you can dress up for work or down for the weekend.

Come in two leg lengths. I have the short on. Would say they come up long but are supposed to be a full length trouser. Easy to shorten though.

The regular is a good length for my taller clients

The one item you need in your wardrobe this autumn/winter 🍂🍂

… a great coat

(And yes I know it’s not remotely cold yet but the good ones always sell out so if you have a coat shaped hole in your wardrobe then now is the time!)

Some tips on what to look for when buying yours, tips for petites as well as my favourite two styles 👌

It’s knitwear season 🧶

So keep in mind these three tips on sizing, storage and care to ensure the right fit and that what you buy lasts longer 🙌

Sweater - size up. I have the medium in the chocolate knit which is a much better fit on me than the small (I usually wear xs in Zara for ref)

The cardigan - this is a small and is a good fit on me. Would also work for an 8

The fabric shaver is a must have not just for your knits but great for coats too.

All storage and moth care are from total wardrobe care. I have also linked some of their other products which I also have and would recommend. I can’t find their hangers to link here so have linked similar

Chocolate 🤎🤎

I buy a lot of coats from Reiss for clients and here are a couple in this season’s brown tones.

They do regular and petite length. I have petite on in these as I’m 5ft 2

Both do come in other colours such as camel and the second on here is one I do have in camel.

I have linked these in the order I am wearing as they do look similar.

I recommend sizing down in these by at least one size based on what I have bought with my clients

Coats

#LTKwinter #LTKautumn #LTKstyletip

Uniqlo is where I often go for these coats thanks to the price point, value for money and functionality.

I have both of these in different colours from previous seasons and wear on repeat I have XXS but these are both xs.

Lots of colour options available and I’ve also linked a couple of other options in this seamless down range that are different lengths - a shorter one which is great with wider legged styles and a mid length. As well as a lighter down option if you don’t want anything as puffy!!

#LTKautumn #LTKstyletip #LTKwinter

The barn jacket was a big trend last autumn and it’s still big this season.

If you missed out on the viral M&S one then this is a great option -even better because not only does it have a hood it’s also part of the puffertech range so is actually warm.

But hurry because the brown is already oos online and the navy is selling out too…

I have on a small as there were no xs in store but I usually wear an XXS - size 6.

7 workwear formulas for you to consider

Variety is key so make sure you have different shapes and proportions to work with.

Workwear trousers at Uniqlo

Excellent quality and great value for money.

Wearing 24” in the wide leg which are fully lined. Mid rise.

Wearing xs in the slim keg but need XXS. be careful on length of this style as you may need to shorten as I have shown here.

Uniqlo has an alteration service though which is either free or £3 depending on hem type and price of trousers. And you can add this to your online order 🙌🙌

This is a best selling Jean for a reason - inclusive sizing from 23-38” waist and in various leg lengths from extra short to short, regular and long…

Lots of washes/colours/prints available too

It’s a full length straight leg style so is a great one to try if you’ve struggled with wide legs feeling too voluminous.

I have a mix of 23/24 in short and extra short on this post. It’s a relaxed style but I prefer a neater fit so liked the 23 on me better but just depends what look you’re after

If you have a short body or short legs then you will want to re balance your vertical proportions by placing the horizontal lines strategically on your body.

Wherever you place a horizontal line - ie where your clothes/footwear start and finish is the point the eye is drawn to. So trick the human eye into thinking you have longer legs or a longer body 🙌🙌

Want to look taller without wearing heels..👠?

At 5ft 2 using the power of vertical lines to elongate the silhouette is a trick I regularly employ!

One to save and share 📌📌

✔️ vertical stripes/prints

✔️ vertical details such as buttons/pin ticks etc

✔️ v necklines - particularly useful if you have a short torso

✔️ layers worn open - blazers/coats/cardigans etc will elongate and slim as they draw the eye inwards as well as vertically

Adding colour into your wardrobe 💕

One of the colours this season is this lovely coral-pink so here are 9 different outfits and colour combos for you to consider plus some tips on how to incorporate colour into your life.

💕 Often a brighter colour with black is the least good option so play around with other neutrals and colour combos

💕 Consider the overall colour balance of the outfit. A contrast can be great but colours work well when paired with other colours of a similar depth.

💕 Always make sure your accessories compliment the rest of the outfit.
