The LOOK- Great style at every age.

People constantly ask me where I got my interest for fashion from. Well believe it or not, not only was I raised on good Christian values but also with an inherent love for style and being presentable. 

My mum and dad always believed in having the best and this extended to the schools we went to, the holidays we took and the clothes we wore.



As I grew older, I looked to my mother more and more for inspiration and I wasn't disappointed. Always making it a point to be well groomed, mum was always on trend with her style ageing as gracefully as she did.

Today as a high powered businesswoman she still takes as much joy in dressing up as I do, always managing to look elegant and age appropriate. Dressed for a day of meeting clients, take a look at her professional chic ensemble below. 


1. Navy Blue short sleeve top with lace detail from H&M- AED 40 (on sale).

2. Navy Blue flared trousers with high waist tailored by DreamGirls- AED 170

3. Digital watch with Black leather strap and Silver face from FOSSILS- AED 500 (approx)





















4. Pearl and zircon long necklace from ALDO- AED 65

5. Black leather bag with silver clasp from ALDO- AED 320


  



6. Black patent leather kitten heels with bow detail from Vincci- AED 160

7. Sunglasses from Reaction by Kenneth Cole- AED 325




This outfit is comfortable and still professional. the length of the sleeves on the top are modest enough to disallow the need for a blazer. The lace detail on them makes this top versatile for work or even dinner or drinks afterwards. Pair with jeans or a fitted skirt for a more causal effect. 

Kitten heels are a great option for taller ladies who want to keep heels low but still have a bit of an arc. They serve as a great alternative for ballet flats.





Are you a working mum? Or a professional with no time to go shopping? If you like the understated smart casual style above then drop me a comment below so i can help recreate a similar style for you. As always feedback is welcome! xx
