Just been sent a link to these REISS tutorials - thought they could be quite helpful for tips for those who're looking to look glam but classy.. Maybe a bit of that 'French style' that's always being talked about on here..

Understand that Reiss is quite expensive but they could be recreated with existing/cheaper clothes..

Ironing everything
Even cheap clothes look better this way!

Thanks Kennington but I was giving tips (or at least them link is) not looking for them LOL

I agree though, crumpled clothes look awful..

Oh dear sorry
I liked the workwear bit
Am too short for the Blazers unfortunately

Yup just thought there were some good basic ideas in there.. I know sometimes folk struggle a bit with where to start..

Less is more!

Not too much make up, 1-2 items of jewellery or an accessory like a scarf, make up outfits with a key piece (brighter colour) and "classic" pieces like a good quality tailored pant or jacket.

Maintain...
Polished shoes, ironed clothes and tidy fingernails.

Painted nails.
Accessories

I was ironically combining the tips idea with the specsavers thread and actually managed to make myself laugh out loud in the process. I'll go back to the telly.... :)
