Great going out dresses from Miss Selfridge
Author: Lucy
I don’t know if you have the same problem that I always have on a Friday night, I get in from work and try to figure out what to wear.
Miss Selfridge has some items that are perfect for a night out if you want to be that little bit more dressy.
Black Playsuit, I love this as it is keeping in line with what’s fashionable, but also very flattering, team with heels from Office that I wrote about in this post.
Black Tulip Dress, this dress is tulip shape so is great for the fuller figure. Team the dress with brighter accessories if you don’t want to blend into the background.
Blue Ruffled Battered Dress, If you don’t want to wear a black dress then go for this blue dress. I would go for gold accessories and the gold heels from Office mentioned in this post.
Rouched Boobtube Dress, Body Con is the hardest fashion to wear, as you have to have the figure to wear it, just make sure you have the right underwear underneath this.
Summer wardrobe for work from New Look
Author: Lucy
When it starts getting warm I always look in my wardrobe and think of what to wear for work.
I find work clothes very hard to piece together as you want to look smart but also fashionable.
I have been having a look at New Look and they have some very fashionable items at the moment, what I have gone for it cut off shirts and then either trousers or a skirt.
Ruffles are very big this season and look really good on shirts, I have picked a few shirts from New Look.
Stripe Ruffle Blouse
This shirt is very flattering as you have the ribbon around it, so if you have a bit of a belly this would be good for you. I would team this with Belted Formal Trousers and heels.
Ruffle Front Blouse
This blouse is lovely with a pencil skirt I would tuck it in to create a smarter effect. It comes in jade and black if you don’t want to wear the white one. With this one make sure that you have the correct bra, I would choose a t-shirt bra to create the smooth effect.
Gingham Gypsy Shirt
The gingham is the perfect pattern if you want to jazz up a plain black skirt, the empire neckline is very flattering. You can wear this tucked in or have it hanging out, put it with Belted Formal Trousers if you are bigger on the bottom half.
Check Ruffle Shirt
Not much to say about this, the checks are lovely and fresh, if you are bigger up top I would stay clear of this one. Team with Belted Crop Trousers and black wedges as this will give the appearance of height if you are a bit short.
Metallic Blouse
This tie blouse is good for work and great for the evening, add the Buttoned Skirt and heels. This top comes in pink as well.
Buttoned Skirt
Belted Formal Trouser

Limited Collection at Marks and Spencer
Author: Lucy
Marks and Spencer have come along way since they were just a shop for round neck jumpers and side fastening trousers for the older lady.
One of the ranges in Marks and Spencer is Limited Collection, and they have some amazing items this summer.
Limited Collection Plain Ra Ra Skirt
Limited Collection Short Sleeve Floral Print Dress
The next two items are the item that every lady should have in their wardrobe this summer, the playsuit is very hard to pull off, so make sure that you team it with flats and you will not look too dressy.

Limited Collection V-Neck Jersey Playsuit

As seen in “Closer” magazine this week from Motel Clothing.
This dress is perfect for the summer as it is so versatile and can be worn with heels or sandals.
Get the Grecian look at Miss Selfridge
Author: Lucy
Oh my god we are still having the most amazing weather ever and I know that every lady when the sun comes out, has no idea what to wear.
Here are just a few bits from Miss Selfridge, I love Miss Selfridge as they update their website all the time.
The style that is very big this summer is the Grecian look, this can be worn by anyone and is so flattering.
I have picked two Grecian style items for you to have a look at.
The Twist Grecian Dress is dark grey is perfect for the day and night, I love this grey but would team it with shocking pink as it brings it to life.
The Crepe Drop Pkt Skirt this can be teamed with a white shirt for the work look, or a scoop neck t-shirt for the casual look.
I also came across this Ditsey Rara Tier Skirt, the skirt is really good for this weather, but just remember to keep the top very simple.
Gok Wan at Dorothy Perkins
Author: Lucy
Celebrity stylist Gok Wan from the channel 4 programme “How to Look Good Naked” is working with Dorothy Perkins giving everyone his style tips and advice on fashion.
Gok is also doing on the website “Gok’s Grab of the Week” this is the must have item you should have now.
The section that I love the best is the videos and advice on your body shape, he goes through all the types of body shapes there are and what suits you best.
I couldn’t help myself but had to tell you about this black polka dot dress from Dorothy Perkins, this is a bargain at £30.00. The dress can be worn in the day with flip flops, and then ditch the flip flops and put on some heels for the sexy evening look.
