I like this year's spring, and not just because it's quite proper. It makes sure there is a sophisticated elegance, suitable for work, spending quality time with your friends and lifting your spirits, which is always great.
There is a strong and often quite apparent link between character, mood and hair. Even Coco Chanel said: "A woman who cuts her hair is planning changes in her life."
I don't support profound changes, because I believe that it is good to be in touch with your personal style, especially when you reach a certain age, and to know exactly what suits you.
I can already tell that burgundy will stick around for next winter, which means my clothes are actually a good investment. But the top piece is my new striped and ethnic print jacket.
Keep some pieces of clothing in your wardrobe that you usually wear in your off duty time, and some more demanding pieces, like a blazer, a high waisted skirt, a dress, nice socks or stockings, a bag, and appropriate footwear.
I know lots of women who are constantly going on a diet and failing, I also have friends who have more curves and pay no attention to their weight, because their strong personalities and charisma overshadow any question of extra weight.
