I need inspiration! Would love some blogs to follow!

I like Suzanne Carillo, she has cool hair. suzannecarillo.com/

cheeriosatdawn · 23/10/2017 20:12

Can't help, can bump. Unless I've missed some treasure trove of content, it seems to me that blogs on 40 something life in and of itself would be pretty cool, too!

thedevilinablackdress · 23/10/2017 20:47

Depends what sort of style you're after. I like www.kingdomofstyle.net and

thatsnotmyage.com

Whatlizzyloves.com
Katgotthecream.com

I like myfashionable40s

Quite like thefashionlift too and Wears My Money.

Sadik · 23/10/2017 21:49

I like fake fabulous though sadly am rather too short for most of the things she wears.

Would welcome any recommendations for similar blogs (ie quirky rather than chic/'well groomed'/'expensive' style) by petite 40+ women . . .

Notmybag · 23/10/2017 22:51

Some great ideas here. I’ll take a look but will stick to UK blogs for ease of shopping!

Honeycake - I was just coming on to recommend the same! Whilst I like her blog, I really enjoy her insta more though - especially her stories!

MinkowskisButterfly · 24/10/2017 12:03

The Does My Bum Look 40 one...just for clarification!

Delatron · 24/10/2017 12:18

Like
Doesmybumlook40, TheFashionLift, Chloelovestoshop. I also like TheFrugality though she's not 40 but does wear cool
clothes and I like her interiors blogs too.

homebythesea · 24/10/2017 12:41

in addition to the above:
midlifechic, myfashionable40s, SusieSoSo, Poppys Style

All very different - you will need to have a look at a few posts and see which chime with you best

Delatron · 24/10/2017 14:50

Oh yes I like Susie So So too and she seems very lovely.

Notmybag · 24/10/2017 21:34

Lots to look at. Are any best for just normal high street stuff?

OP posts:
Almahart · 25/10/2017 08:55

Not really high street but Thatsnotmyage is my absolute favourite at the moment.

Susiesoso is great and buys from the high street but doesn't post very often

I also have a soft spot for midlifechic. I don't share her sense of style but she writes beautifully and is very warm. She also has a very professional take on the industry which I really enjoy

I agree with this. She comes across as a genuinely nice person.

Judydreamsofhorses · 25/10/2017 19:06

I love Wears My Money, and dip in and out of the others mentioned above. Another one I like is Smalltown Threads, although she is very petite and often focusses on that.

She’s not my cup of tea style-wise, but I too like Midlife Chic’s writing, particularly in her “midlife lately” bits. I properly dislike her banging on about rules, like we must not wear skinny jeans any more, though, and find it quite patronising.

Theonlyoneiknow · 25/10/2017 19:18

High Street Stylist (janehighstreetstylist on instagram) also dress like a mum on instagram

AgathaMystery · 26/10/2017 19:55

I love midlife chic! Also A life to style.
