Work Outfits; playing with color.

If you play with colour you get trend this season! Who says you have to wear black to the office, especially when blue is so bang on trend this season. These beautiful chiffon blouses look fabulous tucked into tapered trousers. I love loafers and they are back; perfect excuse to give feet a rest from heels. Pop a chunky art art-deco style necklace on top and you're onto a winner! Have fun with colour and don't be affraid to introduce more than one, be sure to break it up aproapriately and you're there! How can you not have a successful, and fab day in this outfit; it's great being a woman! xxx Madge DC xxx

How to wear print Tees....without Jeans

Print Tee Shirts give us an opportunity to express ourselves in a very explicit way, but does that mean we must confine our legs to jeans? Well, T shirts actually offer a surprising amount of variety with what we choose to wear it with. Be a little bolder and try tucking your print Tee into a smart skirt. I have created a look below that is so wearable, and oh so Jackie-O style neat, that you can wear your print Tee to the office. Experiment with different textures. I have fallen for this amazing skirt from the Closet range at Dorothy Perkins ; a great little wardrobe essential to see out the season. 
I love this cute military style short jacket from villa! Military look is back with a vengeance this season and there's no reason why military can't mean ultra feminine, ultra sexy. Team military jackets with pumps to add sexy appeal. A look like this is great because it doesn't need a hair do to do all the work. I would finish this off by tying my hair back into a not too neat bun or a slick back do. Oh and what a bargain this lovely Matalan belt is?? Amazing, how can you resist?? Until the morrow, xxxx Madge DC xxxx

How to wear Monochrome to the office

I was most pleased to hear that Monochrome is back in this season because I love it!! It's a great trend for anyone who needs to look professional, as well as those who like to keep things simple. Clashing black and white patterns does take some skill and you have to be bold enough to get the right balance. A crisp white shirt is a great place to start; nothing is better than a well fitted shirt; make sure it does up over bust; no pulling. If you hate shirts because they don't give you enough shape on waist, then start getting acquainted with a waist belt. These shoes are my fave of the season; I just adore them!!! white stilettos will also work and are this seasons fave shoe.
Getting sick of all the Cruella black and white??? Then break it up by introducing some color into your outerwear. This amazing coat from Hobbs compliments the outfit perfectly and a flash of red or another bright co lour; green would be great, will also break it up and allow you add some personality into what you're doing. Don't forget a red lip for ultimate trending. There are so many amazing pieces around, really spoilt for choice. Have fun with it! Until the Morrow xxxxxxx love Madge DC  xxxxxx

Wearing Print Blouses

The Key to wearing print blouses is to either go all out and clash with other prints, or for the more conservative among us, to choose other items of clothing which compliment the print colors, whilst simultaneously, not over shadowing it. The blouse is the star, but if you don't compliment it correctly, it's going to end up wearing you girlfriend.
Some blouses, like the airy, soft, floral one below, are very feminine. I like to have fun mixing such delicate fabrics with hard ones like leather and wearing the chunky Cuban heel. This is a good way to tone it down if you feel it is allot to take on the eyes. Throw a scarf on to hit the street, keep it a block color though. Don't be afraid to wear more than one trend at a time.
Have an awesome day xxxxx love madge DC xxxxx
