Available in a range of versatile colors from camel through to khaki, wear a loose boyfriend style over ripped denim for instant cool points. Alternatively pair with a knee-length prom style skater skirt to add a dose of femininity to a masculine shirt.

Rejoice; the seventies kick flare is back in a big way! The good news is, it’s the most flattering shape of all, in particular for women with curves. The flared shape helps to balance out hips and create the illusion of longer legs when paired with a platform or slight heel. For super-flattering results, try a dark wash hue. Team with a rollneck knit and fringe bag to complete the look.

Hero Piece: The Color Pop Coat

There’s no quicker way to liven up your weekend wardrobe than by throwing on a bright coat. On your off-duty days, leave the sensible blacks, navys and greys for the working week and opt for something altogether cheerier! The latest longer-length duster styles are seriously flattering and super-chic.
