My daughter attended the London Clothes Show yesterday and had an amazing time. Mainly because she met “The Wanted” a new boy band. All very cute.
She has written a review:-
“It was an amazing show. The fashion show itself told a story based on “Fashion Capitals of the World” starting with Tokyo, then New York, Italy, Paris and finally London each with the outfits themed around it.
Here are the new trends for the season:-
Playsuits (all in ones but with shorts)
Floral dresses
Bodycom (very tight/leotard style clothes)
Very girly, short dresses
Karky stuff (like Cheryl Cole military look)
Sparkly things (lots of glitter)
Floral headbands
For the older woman like my mum – maxi dresses”
Great. So I’m not allowed to wear girly, sparkly, flowery stuff. Just long to the ground dresses that cover everything up.
She gets to wear this:-

and this…
and I get to wear these:-

What is stopping you from creating outfits that incorporate all the new themes that you like, but slightly modify them to suit your persona and your life style?
Screw those maxi dresses. They look dreadful. Real style is personal style.

I like maxi dresses actually – but I trip over them mostly and feel a bit too formal Lx

Oh come on….how comfortable would you really be in those teeny hot pant suit things? I never wore them the first time around and god forbid I should try a tight body thing.

Well yes I KNOW THAT. But that’s not the point. Well. Actually. It probably is the point. Lx

I am still in awe of the clothes worn in the latest ‘Sex And The City’ movie so my advice is forget the age barriers when it comes to clothes and wear what makes you DAZZLE.
