Which newspaper?

(Only kidding. But) you haven’t been terribly generous with information. No one here knows anything about where you work or the degree of formality required, how you usually dress, your budget, whether you’re a size 6 or 26 ...

Maybe a top and shoes of some sort Grin

Thanks 💕 Was looking for general style options. I am a pear shaped sized 10 but maxi skirts seem to be quite slimming for me. I’m a teacher so I’m looking for smart casual as that’s what I like to go for. But I just never seem put together IYSWIM? I don’t mind splurging if it’s good quality and I’ll get a lot of wear out of it.

I wear like this photo, or with a like jumper tucked in.

Ankle boots and a slim-cutting jumper. Maybe with a cropped blazer if you need a d extra layer. I work in a smart office and find this works well.

That should say light jumper not like!

Ankle boots with a small heel or flat.
Merino wool jumper or a blouse tucked in.

I don’t like a maxi skirt with ballet flats personally.

@Atalune I do wear ankle boots. I stopped wearing them for a while but have been wearing them more now for the past few months so I’m glad that I’m doing something right Smile. What about hair? I have another thread about it on Style and Beauty about my dreadful hair Blush

I agree with ankle boots/courts. I’ve sported brogues with mine go work too. Love a maxi skirt.

What do you feel needs to change about your hair?

@ItsLeviOsanotLeviosA It’s this thread...had to look for it because I think it got lost amidst the other threads.
