Feeling so frumpy since having a baby (1 year ago!)

I had a baby over a year ago and since then I just feel so frumpy and clueless about style.

I am back in my usual size so can fit into my old clothes but I feel like fashion has evolved in the last couple of years. I think the main problem is jeans - I lived in my skinny’s pre baby but now they look dated & I tried straight leg ones but they looked so frumpy with my trainers.

please can anyone steer me in the right direction ?! And any tips on how to look pulled together with limited time to make it happen

Definitely try a slim flare - it’s more bootcut than straight but not as wide as old bootcut. Abercrombie do some beautiful jeans called the 90s relaxed and I feel very cool in them lol.

I think you can go to Pinterest to see what's popular now. I hope this can give you some inspiration for your outfits.
