Glamorous

[Glamghirl]

I wear make up everyday, I straighten my hair. I'm short, overweight and 40ish. I still always feel a bit scruffy. I want to feel more glamorous. What could I do? I know losing weight is what i will hear but i am working on that, I still want to feel a bit more glam bow though. Who could I follow on social media for inspiration? Thank you 😊

What sort of clothes and accessories do you wear? And where do you shop?

Also, perfume?

Also, meticulous laundering and ironing and polishing of shoes??

Slim black trousers with slouchy blouses or wide leg trousers with more fitted t shirt style tops. Usually wear converse or dms to be honest.

Converse and dms are the opposite of glamorous to me.

I think colour combinations are important...I love black, khaki and pair with gold accessories/hardware..also clothes which are fitted. Get your nails done. Wear jewellery.

Well, there’s your answer.😄

Pretty much anything you wear will look more glamorous with a beautiful pair of shoes.

Eg:

Or these from Massimo Dutti.

For me feeling glamorous is all about fabrics. Silk, cashmere, leather, lace. Feeling that next to my skin - with a spritz of good perfume - and looking after my skin and hair means I feel pretty glamorous even without make-up

I also always wear good jewellery

Get your nails done every month - it’s a relatively inexpensive way to feel more glam all the time. I also had HD brows done recently and now look much more put together. Invest in some nice stud earrings (I am saving to do this). Fake tan drops in your moisturiser.

Really? Sorry but they are grim and impractical...and not for people with ugly toes either...not saying OP has ugly toes but just in case...

Nails done, lashes, eyebrows, spray tan, blow dries, balayage, all that kind of thing I guess. Glamorous is the opposite of natural really, it needs to look like you've made an effort and spent a lot of money.

Goodness, how literal can you be? There are millions of pairs of shoes in the world. I’m sure the OP has the wit to pick some she likes, without believing the three I randomly showed are a concrete statement of the only choices she’s allowed.

(This board gets worse and worse …)

The linked ones are good the dutti ones are very dated,

op, yes being happy with your weight helps, as you feel better in your clothes.

past that make sure everything is freshly laundered and ironed. Make sure clothes are well laundered. And in good condition and good quality.,and fit properly

lose the converse at least, and if you want to look glam then dm;s can be but really need a good outfit to make it look that way,
