1. Little Black Dress
“This timeless wardrobe staple is a must-have. Black is figure-flattering and has a way of disguising any lumps or bumps. Simply classic for daywear, you can glam up a LBD for evening with jewellery and heels and wear over and over again as it never goes out of style. Here are some of my current favourites.”
River Island
£25 (reduced from £55)
I love the styling detail on this lbd from River Island. Frills and one shoulder in one perfect package!
2. Skinny Jeans
“You can dress skinny jeans up or down to suit the day or date. Great fitting skinnies can really lengthen the legs, especially black skinny jeans. Go for a stretchy pair for extra flattering fit and comfort.”
3. Wrap Top
“This wardrobe classic is flirty and flattering for any body shape with the wrap-over styling emphasisng the waist and creating an hourglass illusion. Go for a bold colour if you have dark hair and a pastel/neutral shade for lighter hair.”
V by Very Curve
£25
Make the most of your curves in this bright top – available up to size 28.
4. Statement Bag
“Accessories have a great way of pulling a look together. Invest in a good quality classic bag, which will add style kudos for day or night.”
5. Satin Midi Skirt
“A satin midi skirt is soft and romantic and easy to style from day to night. Go for a length that is flattering for you and wear with a cute pair of your fav heels.”
Asos Design
£32
This is a perfect example of a day to date night piece that will suit most shapes and sizes.
Topshop
£29
This longer-length midi comes in a range of fab colours to make you stand out from the crowd.
New Look
Reduced to £10.00
This skirt makes me think of vibrant spring flowers and is perfect to take you from the office to a chic evening venue.
6. Block Heels
“Heels completely change your posture, in the way you stand and walk, giving you more height and, therefore, confidence. With block heels, fashion and comfort combine perfectly to change your outfit from day to date night.”
What a great idea. Can’t wait for the first episode!!
