Having accepted that I'm now at a size I'm likely to stay at (give or take a bit) I need to find some new clothes.
I'm looking for some simple bits - I like a capsule wardrobe. At the mo, my entire wardrobe consists of:
pair boot cut jeans (dark blue)
v-neck cream thin sweater
v-neck camel cardi
black boot cut trousers
camel skirt, A-line, just aobve the knee
black polo thin sweater
black sleeveless sweater with big rollover neck
LBD
white shaped shirt with curved bottom
black t-shirt
white t-shirt
plus some running gear, joggers and a couple of manky sweatshirts for keeping warm. And various boots and shoes.
Doesn't sound like much but it works and I know from experience that, no matter how much I have in my wardrobe, I won't wear anything more than a few faves.
I'm suppose I'm not looking to change too much but would like to upgrade what I do have to cotton/silk mixes and natural fabrics (not wool - it drives me mad with itching). Anyone got any tips of where to try? I've been to M&S and John Lewis (but our local one is being altered and stock of clothes is low).
Anyone ever been to House of Fraser etc and tried out their personal shopper service and, if so, would you recommend it?
Anyone got any hot tips for a way of converting this to a more spring-like wardrobe?
