How to put together a simple outfit for every day

My friend Dee took these photos in Grimaud village just before we left for the UK. I put together a very simple outfit for every day consisting of a light blue tunic top and a pair of wide-leg jeans. The scarf tones well with the top and adds some interest to an otherwise plain outfit.

As I am on a mission to declutter my wardrobe in France I am only keeping the items that I can wear every day and the colours that I feel are still flattering on me now that my hair has turned a silvery grey.

I find that long-sleeved tunic tops are very flattering as they cover the hips. If your figure is pear-shaped tile mine they are especially good when worn over jeans or leggings.

White trainers from Filflop.

Another way I recently wore this blue tunic top here.

I write a fashion and beauty blog for women over 50 with the aim of inspiring mature women to continue to enjoy and have fun with their fashion choices. I have spent most of my working life in some way connected to fashion. I started my career in Fashion PR and then trained as an Image Consultant when my children were young. I subsequently worked in the corporate world running seminars, doing private coaching and speaking at conferences. I started my blog in 2009 as I wanted to share my years of experience working in the world of fashion. I truly believe we can continue to have confidence in the way we present ourselves. Our style may evolve with time and changing lifestyles, yet with a little knowledge and inspiration, we can all continue to have fun with fashion. As women of a certain age we are a growing demographic let us prove that we can also be a chic one.
