On-trend accessories
Accessories are a great way to ease yourself into a new trend and I’m loving this quilted bag, guaranteed to elevate the simplest of looks. Trainers suit all ages and will instantly give your outfit a youthful spin, especially when teamed with more polished pieces.

The right fit
Invest in well-fitting clothes and avoid anything shapeless or too tight. Highlight all your best bits with tailored blazers, high-waisted trousers and belted dresses. Try rolling up or ruching your sleeves.

Dark denim
Dark wash jeans are timeless, whereas acid-wash or distressed jeans can look like you’re trying too hard. Defined by their high waist and tapered leg, mom fit jeans are incredibly flattering across the generations. Tuck in your top half and add a cool loafer or strappy sandal.

Good foundations
Your underwear affects how everything else fits. Make sure you’re wearing the right size bra and get fitted if needed. For an extra confidence boost, savvy shapewear will help create a smooth silhouette, making everyday dressing a breeze.

Colour pop
Wearing colour can boost your mood and appearance. You don’t have to go all out – even small splashes can have an impact. Warm skin tones look great in yellow-based tones including reds and corals, and cool skin tones suit blue-based tones such as greens and pinks.
