New job in primary school office - help me with my wardrobe please!

[Jojay]

I start work in a few weeks after 3 years off, and I've no idea where to start!

So far I've bought a Boden wrap dress, not too frumpy I hope, to wear with tights and boots, but it's too winter-y to go straight back to work in.

I've got a couple of nice cardi's from Woolovers and White Stuff, one teal one raspberry, and a cream pair of chino trousers. I've got a long grey fine knit cardi and that is about it!

Can you help me fill in the gaps in my wardrobe? I'm a pear shaped size 12 and 5'4".

Thanks so much.

Ha. White stuff is primary school uniform.

I'd add in a couple of skirts and trousers and some tops that go with both plus a couple of pairs of shoes

How about a couple of pairs of tailored trousers, a blazer that you can wear with trousers, dresses and chinos and a few stretchy long sleeve t-shirts?

I'm a school business manager and tend to wear suits or dresses/trousers and blazers. The other staff are much more casual.

Good luck in your new job!
