This is super fun - eBay UK is doing a live pre-loved designer shopping event today at 5pm called “The Endless Runway”. It’s hosted by Raven Smith and is a part of eBay’s live series for Fashion week.

Pre-loved is a great way of pulling an item, that otherwise would be out of reach into our budget.

I’m a massive fan of pre-loved designer and I will be looking for my next One Item a Month!

You can’t wear the same pair of silk trousers every day for a week…

… actually you very much can. People are going to remember your wardrobe and the items you own way less than you think.

The whole idea of never repeating looks is completely outdated and honestly pretty dumb. If anything, don’t you want to wear the items you feel amazing in as often as possible?

And if you care about what people think - It’s not like people are going to like it any less the second time around. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Do you prefer Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday?

3 looks for autumn featuring leather trousers.

Do you prefer look 1, 2, or 3?

Not for everyone, but very much for me. I love a pair of leather leggings or trousers. The texture the leather brings to a look. The warmth and structure.

I will wear them from September all the way through to late spring next year.

My brown and grey pair are both by @theory__ and the cream by @josephfashion 🤍

A week of elegant autumn outfits 🍂

Do you prefer Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday?

Summer might be my favourite season to live in, but autumn is by far the best to dress for.

After spending our days in breezy shorts and dresses we get to start adding layers again.

This is the time to really play around with our wardrobes and find new fresh ways to wear what we already own.

As you can see I lean heavily into my caramels, browns, beiges and warm creams. Cosy shades to mirror the changing colour of the nature outside.

3 key items for your early autumn wardrobe 🍂

Some pieces are the backbone of a season, and these 3 will last you right from the end of summer until it gets properly chilly.

Choosing clothing that we can wear for as big part of the year as possible is key for a properly put together capsule wardrobe. They have to be versatile enough to style for different weather and be made in a quality that can handle a lot of wears.

I have had these pieces in my wardrobe for years already and I’m planning to use them for many more to come.

Items in my bio 🤍

You can’t wear the same cream turtleneck every day for a week…

If you spill on it straight away on Monday. But otherwise it’s no problem at all!

Do you prefer Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday?

This is one of the most versatile items I own. I have worn this more times than I can remember. I would go as far to say that it’s one of my core 10 pieces I use the most.

Say turtleneck for the info 🤍

Do you prefer look 1, 2, or 3?

Whenever I’m a little bored with my wardrobe and need some inspiration, I search for a particular item I already own to get ideas on how to wear it differently.

It’s such a great way to spark some creativity and make sure we use our clothes more. Why don’t you give it a try?

Efcharistó, Zákyntho! 🇬🇷

1 week, no phone, children, sunrises, exploring caves, driving beach buggies, high jumps into deep water, snorkelling with fish, eating calamari…

We brought home a bit of an unusual souvenir. I will share more on that later 🤍

7 days on a Greek island - can I wear blue and white every day?

Do you prefer Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday?

Your holiday wardrobe don’t need to mirror the rest of your capsule. I’m personally a lot more colourful on holiday than in everyday life and blue and white is a go-to for me.

So I have a small holiday capsule wardrobe that I come back to year after year.

Some of these pieces I have had for 15 years or more at this point. So even though I don’t get much wear out of them at home, the price per wear is still great.

What colours do you wear on holiday?

Tunic - Mandibreeze
Set and last dress - old pre-loved.

You can’t wear the same pair of trousers for a week right?

…unless they are super versatile and you make the effort to style them in different ways every day.

Then no one will even notice. 🤷🏼‍♀️

We overestimate how much everyone else is keeping tabs on what we wear. I bet you could wear these trousers to an office for a full week straight and no one would actually notice anyhting else but a well-dressed woman.

Do you prefer Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday?

5 looks for my autumn wardrobe - I’m updating my outfit library. Picking some old favourites to rewear and adding some new looks.

There is something truly special about actually getting to wear different clothes in autumn. Layers, more muted tones, different materials to play with.

I’m not quite there yet, but give it a few weeks and I will be wearing these on repeat.

Do you prefer to get dressed in the summer or in the autumn?

As always, you can find my looks in my bio. 🤍

You can’t look elegant at a music festival… right?

Going to @wildernesshq with @audiuk is a pretty elegant affair. Wood cabins with our own bathrooms, a Michelin star dinner in a glamorous tent, a secret set by @professorgreen… not really your ordinary festival experience, that’s for sure.

But no matter if you go to this festival or another. Remember, you are never too old or too elegant enjoy live music in a big field.

What do you think of my look?

You cannot wear the same dress for a week…

…unless you pick a very classic shape that works for every occasion and style it different every day.

This is proof that a few well chosen dresses beats a massive wardrobe full of fast fashion frocks any day.

How to make a shirt more fitted.

As much as I love an oversized shirt, at times we need one that is more fitted.

Instead of getting another one, use this simple hack.

Is this hack useful to you?

#tessmontgomery

What a night! The best in a very long time.

@henleyfestival is no ordinary festival (as you might have guessed by the black tie dress code). It’s an absolutely brilliant time and especially if you happen to be invited by @audiuk to their tent where @chefrohitghai was in charge of the food.

Champagne, Michelin-starred meal and so much incredible music! I don’t think I have ever done a singalong like this one ever before. Only all of our English favourites by @alexjameshq 🙌🏻

If there is one weekend not to miss in the English summer social calendar, it’s this one.

Thank you @audiukpress for an absolute blast! (As you can see from all of our faces we had the best time!)

The 3 most serious wardrobe mistakes we make.

To prevent number 3, use this quick little exercise -

1. Draw two large circles on a piece of paper. One is for your life and the other is for your wardrobe.

2. In your life circle, divide it in portions (pieces of cake if you will) equivalent to the different parts of your life. Work/family life/ hobbies/ events etc.
Make the size of the piece appropriate to how big part of your life you spend in that role.

3. Do the same in your wardrobe circle, use them same categories, but estimate how big each part is taking up in your wardrobe right now.

4. Compare the circles. Is the piece of the category in your life circle matching the size of that part of your wardrobe circle?

It’s quite common to realise for example that we have a small party slice in our life circle, but a larger slice of party wear in our wardrobe circle.

This exercise will show us exactly where we are over spending and over allocating in our wardrobes compared to our actual lives.

The ideal wardrobe matches each portion of our lives perfectly.

This is the quintessential British polo experience 🐎

Thank you @audiuk for treating us to our favourite event in the British summer calendar - The Royal Charity Polo cup ✨

Sunshine, Windsor castle as the backdrop, horses, great causes, socialising, delicious food and maybe a royal or two…

This is an event that never disappoints.

Doesn’t Warren look dapper in his suit?

Let’s steal some elegant summer looks from Pinterest.

Do you prefer look 1, 2, or 3?

Whenever I’m feeling a bit of a lack of inspiration I challenge myself to copy inspirational outfits I love, but I’m only allowed to use items I already own.

It has given me so many great ideas of how to wear my clothes and new outfit combinations I haven’t thought about before.

5 wedding guest dresses I wear on repeat.

Do you prefer dress 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5?

Between these 5 I have something for every type of wedding I get invited to.

As an avid outfit repeater I don’t mind if the guest lists overlap. I always style my dresses slightly differently, so they feel fresh even if I wear them again in the same wedding season.

How many weddings are you invited to this year?

You can find the dresses in my bio. 🤍

Some outfits come with whole personalities…

… I really like English garden Tess.

I have a secret dream of a big house on the countryside with many acres. Gardens, a greenhouse, maybe even a tennis court.

I have never been one for fancy jets, sports cars, Birkin bags or yachts. All I want is a space that is mine where I can just exist in peace and stillness. Garden, cook, read, listen to the kids’ laughter echoing over the fields.

A rich life, not for show.

What is your version of a rich life?

The secret to amazing style is…

Not money…. or background. They are also not born with it.

I spent 8 years researching and uncovering exactly what it is that makes someone amazingly stylish.

What I found it is that the people who have great style usually have a set framework that helps them decide what to get, and just as important - how to get it.
Thats the magic.

So I decided to implement it on my own wardrobe, and later I taught it to my private clients.

…and now you can get it too.

ad | Every woman needs these 4 bras in her wardrobe.

1. The one that completely disappears under clothes. It leaves no lumps, lines or the dreaded double boob. It works as the canvas for your outfit and you put it on and forget it’s even there.

2. Your “at home” bra. Most of us want to whip our bra right off when we get home, but still need something comfy for support.

3. The pretty bra - Is not for wearing under clothes unless it’s deliberately peeking out. These bras do nothing for an outfit, but look good on their own.

4. The strapless bra. Not our favourite but we all need one.

With this wireless bra from @honeylove I take care of 1 and 2 in the same bra. This bra blends in under an outfit like nothing else. And as it has great support and is very comfortable, I don’t want to take it off when I come home.

Instead of two, I just use this one.

You can’t wear the same pair of shorts for a week

…. poppycock! Of course you can.

The items we have in our wardrobes are a lot more versatile than we give them credit for.

Often all we need is to challenge ourselves to come up with new ways of wearing them.

Do you prefer the look for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday?
