I think we all have an outfit that we tend to go straight to when we have nights out, lunches, dates, and meetings. I used to wear something like this almost all the time. The only thing I changed was the bag, or the top. Switching it up between tees and shirts depending on where I was heading.
Once I had the girls I swapped to leggings and a top that would fit – not anymore!! For me, this is my perfect outfit and I’ve been working on accumulating the basics once gain to suit my new shape. I think if the basics are all the same it’s so easy to keep yourself looking and feeling great. Capsule wardrobe is key!
A great pair of fitting jeans is hard to come by and sometimes it’s worth splashing out a little if you know you’re going to wear the hell out of them – like I do.
Leather or faux leather jackets are effortlessly cool.
I have a HUGE boot collection, so I am always on the look out for something similar but with a different detail on them I love the thick chains on these Kurt Geiger sale boots. I have a pair similar with a higher heel but these would be amazing for everyday wear.
That bag though… I do think that I probably have odd taste in bags but I always tend to go for something bright, unusual or a bit novelty.
A white or off-white shirt to me is an essential wardrobe item. I once applied for a job after being a SAHM living in leggings and ugly t-shirts and got an interview. You know what I didn’t have? A suitable shirt.
I love the sales, but I hate shopping the sales while IN an ACTUAL shop, for me the best way to shop is online, on a site that has all the sales on one website. I get my coffee, a cosy jumper, bun and put an outfit together. I can take my time over it and get it right.
Just like my very perfect mum outfit above.
