So you want to make an impact but don't want to buy a new outfit you will wear only once and everything you have is sooo! Last season, I have nothing to wear I hear you shriek. Now how many times have I said this even though I can't fit anything more in my wardrobe and drawers, and surprise surprise they are brimming with a variety of styles.

Good news is all you need is a bit of imagination, your old closet and fashion accessories to contemporize that old pair of jeans, trousers or skirt, its amazing what a new handbag and chunky vibrant necklace can do.

Okay for those lucky ladies who have a new date what should you wear? first things first find out what you are doing? For arguments sake lets assume you are going to see a film or going for a drink in town, you want to look sexy but without having desperate wrote on your forehead. Why not wear a pair of good fitting boot cut jeans with high heel shoes or boots a white fitted blouse or if your feeling daring a strappy top. Add a splash of individuality with a chunky turquoise necklace and funky blue retro inspired bag by Lillypod to give your outfit a lady like style, this is sure to knock your new guy dead, and have him begging for another date, if you want one that is?

So what do you wear for that all important interview, you have an old moth eaten suit in the back of the closet ok slight exaggeration the suit is a few years old, lets guess you also have a pair of smart black slacks and a couple of white fitted shirts. You try them on and feel plain; it's not your usual stylish self. However it is important to feel comfortable with yourself yet look smart and efficient, so why not try the suit again this time add a slender grey or black belt to the waist of the blouse or maybe a wider belt around your suit jacket to accentuate your waist, bear in mind its an interview not a fashion show and we are looking for understated style so don't go too wide with the belt. To finish the look choose a simple heart pendant necklace and a large black and white floral handbag by Lillypod completed with a pair of comfy chunky heel round toe shoes. This look not only gives you a sense of style and individuality, it will make you feel ultra confident and at ease with yourself.
