Capsule Wardrobe

Thank you for your very kind messages to MissM. Even now, after so many years, we are all surprised and touched by how generous you have been.

Today was spent shopping for MissM's new work wardrobe because she starts her job in the City on Monday. It felt as though my life was flashing before my eyes : so many hours trying on school shoes, blazers, sports kit and sensible skirts had come to this final moment when we look for the perfect pair of cropped trousers. If MissM is flying from my nest she will look stylish as she goes.

    Congratulations to Miss M on her new job!

    I've just started working again (part-time) and am really struggling with what to wear after so many years at home--I could definitely use some style advice! xx

    Lucille's comment made me laugh! I'm looking forward to the day that no more clothing needs to be labelled.

    I feel excited myself reading this. We dress fairly casually where I work and part of me would love to be in a classy, stylish outfit, with manageable heels and a chic little jacket. There's nothing better than knowing you look good, and look the part. Good luck MissM!
