At the minute I'm living in skinny jeans (capri/long/dark/pale) and either long vest with various t shirts or long vest with slouch jumpers.
Help me look like the glam mummies at our baby groups.
Size wise I'm 5.10 size 16 hourglass figure note I hate my upper arms so must cover at least half of my upper arms. Pale with long brown hair.
Budget little as possible please anyone got any ideas?

What do the glam mummies at your baby group wear?

Was just going to ask the same!

Similar- ish stuff but they look more glam and polished.
Shirts with skinny jeans, shorts and dressy t shirts, maxi dresses which I'd love to wear but they're all sleeveless.
I do wear make up and hair normally down loose so need to make an effort with nails too I think

Are you avoiding maxi dresses because they expose your arms?
Have you tried them with a racer back as that is very flattering for arms. Or what about a fine linen t shirt over a maxi dress?

Couldn't show arms at all lost a lot of weight so tops of arms terrible, could try shirt over hadn't thought of that

It looks better than it sounds! I wear a navy white stripe maxi with a navy linen t over it.

Maxi dress with a very thin, lightweight cardy?

The mums you describe sounds v similar to what I wear...not saying Im Miss Glam but I think having hair styled (not necessarily up) is important, I can get away make up free if my hair looks good.

How about a nice scarf or long necklace (try accessorize/ topshop, ebay have some great bargains for this) to go with the vest tops and jumpers, they can really glam it up.
