Style advice : Be cautious if you're top heavy, the bow detail will only draw more attention to those areas and make you appear even heavier. Drawing attention at work to those heavy assets of yours might not produce the best results of your day! Think proportions... use the bow to disguise this by tying a knot instead of a bow, letting it hang down towards your stomach area, making you look slimmer and taller, hence drawing attention away from your bust area...Flexible aye?
I'm sure you own a white shirt, but do you have this Austin Reed bow tie detail white shirt? Was £60 now £12 - Now that's a bargain!
2. Tuesday couldn't come any sooner, with this stunning tailoring again by Austin Reed! Style crush! Now you don't have to bother about the excessive exposure of the sleeves and bust area apparent in most shift dresses found on the high street, making them almost unwearable to work - or forcing you to wear camisoles or blazers covering the true beauty of the shift dress.
There's nothing as classic as fine tailoring and nothing as timeless as neutral fabrics. I wonder why I brushed pass the red stunning shift dress for this conservative stunner - 'value for money' I guess. You will comfortably wear this over and over again and will be appropriate not only to work, meetings and corporate events but to classics parties and dinners while accessorising to suit the place or to create your own look.
Style advice: Great style for the high waisted and to show off gorgeous waist lines. You can still pull this off even if you haven't got a great waistline...Remember the gift of the underwear..did someone say 'Body Magic'. Note! High necks is not flattering on those who are top heavy or with short necks..Use accessories such as long necklaces or scarves to break up the chest area and give illusion of length or draw attention away.
You possibly own a shift dress, is it as wearable as this Austin Reeds Birdseye suit dress? Was £160 now £64 - Considering what it's worth, this is an absolute bargain!
3. The classic black trouser. How do you go into the week without one? 'Black trousers are to workers like a jersey to a footballer' - so then the quality and fit should come first. Most of us end up with loads of black trousers as we are never satisfied with the fit, length, fabric of the ones we have. A black trouser is worn all year round and suitable for work , parties and occasions - hence buy in the best quality you can afford.
- A classic black trouser should be long enough almost to the ground of your standard heel length not your leg length.
- The waist should not be too tight but not too loose leaving a gap at the back when you sit down (not a good look).
- The classic work fabric should be made of natural fibres such as cotton, silk, viscose and wool, these are more durable,feels and looks better on the skin.
- The most classic style is the boot cut.
4. It's Thursday and the week is telling on you, you spend half the day wondering why it isn't Friday! Cheer up and dress up in a dress down way! It's warmer and the crop pants is huge this season. It's classic and puts 'chic' in your look without having to make so much effort.
This Coast Tyra trousers has been designed to suit all body types and to disguise areas we do not like. If you have short legs, put a heel on- as the amount of leg showing creates illusions of never ending legs and the long legged can wear smaller heels or flats and still look graceful and elegant. Whether you are bottom heavy or small -the turn-ups balances out your figure....This can also be worn to work or paired with your party top for a night out on the tiles! It's also not your standard black but can be paired with any colour- This five star rating piece was £80 now £39 and it's so worth it!!
5. TGIF - 'Thank God it's Friday' - arguably the most used words by workers around the globe! For those who enjoy the luxury of dressing down to Jeans on a Friday, remember the rule to look FAB even at that. If you have to dress down, dress down with the best pieces.
