I need some work clothes! I am now going back to work in 3 weeks and have nothing to wear! Honest, I live in jeans
I have
1 pair black trousers that are quite new and basic (M&S limited collection).
1 pair 3 year old boden check wool (brown ish) trousers (bit tight but I am doing sit ups!)
1 green (jigsaw) cord suit (much nicer than it sounds was quite trendy) 3 years old
1 black long cardy bought this year from Laura Ashley
1 brand new long length cardy with a tie (F&F)
1 nice, new last feb black cardigan from laura ashley
1 beige (much nicer) cardy from banana republic
1 knee length cotton skirt from zara (kind of chino colour - nice and fitted looks good i think)
couple of banana republic tops s/sleeved
1 banana republic knitted top - always get compliments - bought feb
1 dress boden 3 years old like a shirttwaister but loks really shapeless on me as i am little and reasonably skinny (when i have done those sit ups)
I can see a thread here (ie i love cardigans!)
I am aged 50 (think I look/act younger)
will be in a corporate client facing role (basically management consultancy)
need 'business clothes' for out of the office days
need 'less formal but still msart' clothes for when in the office
i am 5' 1"
size 10 top
size 8 bottom (but do need to tone up and get back into preholiday good eating habits for afew weeks)
basically blonde/shoulder length hair (might have a restyle later on but not too much all at once)
