Going to be on telly next week and totally need help! It’s a casual show but I’d like to look a bit more vibrant intelligent amazing dropdaed gorgeous than fat lockdown mum! I’m usually jeans and a top but cannot seem to see anything online. Am 5.8, a14, reddish hair, wide waist !)like green. I do tend to struggle with clothes, but this is mad. And I’ve just realised everything I own is ancient and baggy/ tatty. Can someone please help me style an outfit ideally with jeans or trousers that’s safe but a bit interesting? I have found some nice things but of course they are the ones that have sold out. 😅 thank you!

When you asked for 'safe but interesting' I thought of this blog I read yesterday.

www.wearsmymoney.com/shopping/your-15-piece-spring-capsule-wardrobe/

Hope you find something you love and have a great time on telly!

Do we have a budget? Green blouse What about this with a chunky necklace?

Oh this is so helpful, thank you! The green blouse is lovely! Ordering it tomorrow! I scoured zara but missed this- also got frustrated with their website and felt VERY old!
A thankyou Jofra I will be song out my awful clothes with this in mind - she puts together some nice, easily understandable looks.
Can’t believe I’ve let my wardrobe get so bad. I think it’s a combo of lockdown and being a mum.. I used to be quite chic ( I think!) now feel to fat and frumpy to dare to buy anything. Mad I know.
Thank you very much indeed.
