Hi everyone, I'm after some style advice! I'm about to go back to work after maternity leave but am going back to a slightly different role so need a grown up work wardrobe as I will need to look professional rather than just grubbing around on the floor with kids all day.
I have 2 pairs of really nice wool trousers (grey and beige, slim leg, ankle length) from Reiss that just about fit (but I would need a loose top to hide tummy) and a black high waisted pencil skirt, but no idea about tops, shoes, accessories, etc.
I'm a size 12 with a dreadful CS overhang (but good control pants thanks to you guys ) and I'm 5'7. The other women doing my job wear things like pencil dresses with tights, smart trousers with ironed shirts tucked in, leather shoes with small heels.
I will be working 3 days so I prob only need 6 outfits. I don't know where to go and shop. I REALLY like LK Bennett and Reiss dresses as they seem slightly more interesting but I can't afford them.
I'm sorry this is a bit vague and waffly - if I have left out anything key please let me know. And I really hope you can help!
