Ooh a fashionable tent! I am going to say it now - those fashionable glamorous women of the world terrify me.....
Despite being a mere 34 years old I have never managed to be particularly trendy but have learnt a few tricks in the last couple of years for when I do make the effort.
Very hands-on job means boring trousers, sensible shoes and usually a fitted t-shirt/top for work but I am trying socially to look more stylish and wear heels. Also in the last two years I have become friends with a lady who works as a colour stylist/dresser and she has given me free bits of advice along with multiple stares of horror that I am sure are meant for my own good!!!!
Through her I will tell you what I have learnt:
1. EVERYONE can wear skinny jeans - they are your friend!
2. Only a few people can wear black, everyone can wear navy! If you have warm peachy or olive skin try brown, if you have pink skin tones try grey.
3. Ugg boots should be only used as slippers and never leave the house!!
4. Lipstick is essential at all times (I must confess I don't abide by this- it scares me!)
4. Show off your best assets and get good tailoring!
I like Fatface and have just bought this

I also love joules and I am wondering about this:
