I dont know what to wear

I want to improve my wardrobe and dress a bit better. My office is smart casual but I honestly don’t know what to wear and where to buy. I tend to wear jeans, trousers, tops, blazers. Jumper, trainers, boots. Used to buy in Oasis, Oliver Bonas, White stuff. Can’t find much that suit me these days.

The new style of dresses don’t suit me, long sleeve and long dresses look funny on me these days. I used to wear some knee high tight around the waist dresses but I have put some weight on my belly.

I am 50, 5’2 tall, 62 kilos. Need to loose a stone. Was looking at a video of me dancing and I look pregnant; feeling quite down now.

Any advice welcome. I guess loose weight is the first thing; but seems very difficult at my age

Well some good news - those long sleeve long dresses are definitely not fashion anymore.
if you are on instagram there are a few great accounts to follow that will tell you how to build a capsule wardrobe.

That’s a good idea. I need to get into instagram and glad to hear reg those dresses coming out of fashion. Perhaps I need to spend more time looking at fashion trends on the internet. Thanks
