But for now, George, should we get into it? It's Fashion Friday. It's Fashion Friday. We only do podcasts now that first and the second. Alliteration. Alliteration, that's what I was looking for. Fashion Friday, fuck it off Fridays, busy Fridays. You all right, me? I'm good, how are you? Can I just comment on your outfit today? You literally look like you're off to like a day's shoot in the country. That's my new look, it's my country chic.

1:36Are you channeling your either withering heights? Yeah, you know, it's how it is. Can we take a moment for withering heights? What the hell is going on with Margot Robbie and Jacob Elodie? What do you think? I think it's a really good PR campaign, what do you think? Well, yeah, I mean maybe they're just, you know, normal people having a relationship. She's married. They just had a baby. I'm joking. No. Do we think that? No, I think you're right. I think people just love to make something of nothing. I mean, you've seen the shoot, right? No, I know. It was in the Vogue Australia shoot. I'm like, well, if I was her husband.

2:10How does that work? Because I always think that if you're a husband or a wife of an actor or an actress, and you have to see that play out, especially now, right, because of social media and how much hype people make of things. Yeah, yeah. Can you imagine what that's like? I've thought about it a godly amount of time this weekend. I really have thought about it quite a lot because I think what they've tried to do is a bit of a, you know, in Wicked with like the sort of codependency thing with Cynthia and Ariana. Yeah. I think they've tried to do that for this film. So there's a bit of a buzz around it.

2:43So there's something, yeah. But like, I mean, some of the stuff that he's been saying, like when we were looking at each other on the moors, we were like actually in love. And I was thinking like, chill out, mate. Yeah, it's a lot. it'd be quite a lot to hear wouldn't it you're in the spare room tonight yeah maybe that's just a thing like maybe like if you're a big actress or actor now you know that that comes with the PR campaign around a film maybe thank god I'm married to a rugby bloke yeah there are no females in the workspace but talking of Margot Robbie can we please take a moment for her fashion have you seen what she's been wearing on this press tour I mean I'm absolutely obsessed with it.

3:21So we thought off the back of all the wonderful films and all the wonderful fashion, we would do a fashion Q &A today. Let's do one. There's loads of new stuff in the shops at the moment, which we did say probably three weeks ago that this year we weren't going to buy anything. No, no, hold on. You said that. I did. Yeah, yeah, I said that I was really not going to buy any more stuff and not bring it into the house. No. Well, that has gone out of the window. So that's great. Yeah, I was going to say, because this is all new that you're wearing today. All new. Every single item. Right, kick us off, George.

3:52Let's start with, oh, this is for you. Best places to find high-waisted wide-leg trousers that aren't going to break the bank. Oh, you've come to the right place. Right, I've got two new pairs recently. The first, wide-leg trousers or wide-leg jeans? Wide-leg trousers. Right, okay. I would start off at H &M. I've got the most incredible pair of high-waisted wide leg black they're like um like they're not they're not like a satin they're slightly stronger material than a silk um they've got a little drawstring they look incredible with oversized t-shirts jumpers tucked in a really nice blazer a long coat of trainers so H &M would be the first place I bought an incredible pair from um never fully dressed they have got some amazing ones with like prints but also you could go for like a big barrel leg jean as well and I just saw some on ASOS at the moment you know that brand Arrange?

4:49Arrange yeah. I was gonna say Arrange. They've got some really cool ones as well as we're sort of stepping into spring summer they're going to be more like your caramels and your like yeah like the ones you're wearing today beige white yeah yeah yeah what about you? High Wasted Shirt do you know what I had a pair from what the brand that I really liked but they were too big and I it's annoying because I then couldn't get the smaller size but they were such good quality they were lovely but I really would size down like it maybe even twice they because they do come up really big okay um but they are really nice quality and not really expensive because I think everyone always bangs on about you know a staple you can really spend money on it but I don't think you necessarily need to spend money on it I think you just need to look at like a good fabric and these really felt like heavy weight like they would last I've heard good things about M &S high-waisted black trousers I've seen loads of people talking about them online haven't tried them personally such a good staple but just be careful I think when you're wearing high-waisted you know wide legs you've got to be careful about balancing the top yeah like I put on this particular pair and then I put this massive oversized jumper and I was in a bit of a rush I was like, what the fuck are you wearing?

6:03And I was like, oh, it's completely wrong. It swamped me because I'm quite petite. So just think about that when you're putting it together. Yeah, that is true. You can almost go like slightly shorter on the top. Yes, agreed. Okay, let's go here. Oh, this could be for you. Easy outfit for drinks with mum friends. We're all knackered. I love that that's the last bit they put. That also impacts what you wear. I think, do you know what? this is like a sort of area that I find difficult you know when it's like smart casual you're just going for a drink so you don't want to be too dressy but you also don't want to just wear what you normally wear but I do think you can't go wrong with jeans a really nice top and then a pair of like nice boots or slingback heels or like something that's not like OTT um so yeah I mean at the moment I love barrel leg jeans I have got these same jeans hush barrel leg jeans in three different colors and I wear them day to day and at night but I do think like with a barrel leg they're just a bit more interesting than like a straight jean or yeah just like your normal jeans so if you wear them with like a nice little like kitten heel or like a lower heel I think I think look a bit mad with a really high heel they've got it's got to be that I don't know in between stage um and then just like a nice shirt or like a crop like a shorter shirt or like just some nice jewelry I don't think you can go wrong with like jeans and a nice top yeah jeans and a nice top that's like your perfect outfit also like a bodies really like you can get some really lovely bodies on ASOS actually like off the shoulder ones or one shoulder ones I really like I've got a really nice one that's just got one sleeve yeah I mean that looks not for everybody but I quite like it um I'm not sure if anyone else likes it but I quite like it but you get or like um I like a pussy pussy bow clip that I like a pussy I like a pussy bow a pussy bow is really interesting yeah exactly like an interesting shirt like with a yeah a nice collar or a good sleeve You said Fussy three times.

8:14Okay, where are we going now? Oh, this is interesting. Expensive looking clothes that aren't actually that expensive. Hmm. Okay, let's start with really great tailoring. Because I think Topshop is back in a big way. I don't know. And actually, it's weird because I only sort of remembered that Topshop was back a couple of months ago. Yeah, because we knew that it was on ASOS, didn't we? But now they're in John Lewis. I know. Yeah. And obviously their website is beautiful. It looks absolutely gorgeous. But I think great tailoring. I think when you want to make clothes look more expensive, turn to Scandinavian dressing.

8:52Go and have a look on Pinterest. Pinterest is not just for interiors. Pinterest. Oh my God, it's great. It's the, the Scandies do it so well because the tailoring is beautiful. Everything is slightly oversized. They're always wearing a crisp white t-shirt. They've got interesting trousers on, ballet pumps. like it's really a capsule wardrobe but the tailoring is everything but you also don't need to spend fortunes on it no that's what i was gonna say it's all about the cut like a lot of people will buy like men's blazers for that oversized look so you know like m &s or places where you get good quality for not lots of money so like for me it's like m &s cars our care yeah that kind of in the middle range like slightly prove h &m do that premium range don't they which is actually amazing and it's about fabrics it's like buying a wool coat that always looks expensive like good heavyweight t-shirts I actually bought some heavyweight t-shirts from Primark the other day they were 14 pounds and they are really good they wash really well but yeah like so I said it's like that simplistic fashion with mixture of textures like mohair always looks really expensive yeah if If you can't afford cashmere, because cashmere is expensive.

10:03Oh, it is. And it's just a pain to, like, upkeep. You can never wash it. You end up stinking but looking good. Yeah. But also layering. Like, I really love that look where you've got, like you still just said, like a heavier weight T-shirt. And then you've got a round neck jumper and you can see the T-shirt underneath. And then layer up with, like, beautiful jewelry. Yeah. For example, like a couple of necklaces and some really great gold, you know. Yeah. Do it that way. A nice walk. Neck scarf. Exactly. Yeah, watch. It's all in that kind of stuff. It's like in the details, the buttons, they're the things to look out for.

10:32But I think, yeah, your shops to look at are H &M Premium Selection, Arquette, COS, those sorts of – And other stories. And other stories is good as well. Yeah. Okay. Please help me out of my trainers. They're just too comfy. Oh, my God. Listen, Georgia's your gal because – This is me. Yeah. I haven't seen you wear trainers since way before Christmas. I know. I actually bought a pair of trainers on Friday. All right, there we go. Yeah, of course. but yeah I've been the same I'm trying to get away from trainers because they are so comfortable and it makes you never want to wear any other shoes and it makes every other shoe even like a comfortable shoe not feel comfortable in comparison but I think the way to go is loafers or like ballet pumps but not like really flimsy ones like exactly like you've got on now that are a little bit sturdier I would yeah I mean they're everywhere at the moment you can I mean M &S obviously bang on about it but they do that range that's is it called insolia or something and it's basically it's basically they're comfortable though that's the premise is that they're really really comfortable but i do think yeah a loafer can pretty much be worn with everything that a trainer can yeah and also a loafer doesn't need to be clumpy you know like there's the sort of like um south korean fashion where they wear like little skirts big platform and it's like that's not for us but you can get a lovely loafer like a lovely new producer today she's wearing some gorgeous black loafers with a little pair of socks and some trousers that looks really cool yeah exactly also George you were saying the other day that you needed not you Mark Mark's got some big old clumber trainers on but you wanted some boots to wear to smarten up a bit but it's all about the size of the heel right and also if you don't like wearing big heels and really pointy boots because they are uncomfortable there are loads of different like ankle boots on the market that have got a wider toe a wider heel at the back They're just not, you know, it's a different look.

12:26Yeah. I really like a tiny heel on a boot, but a pointy toe. But then I still find them comfortable. But I do, I totally feel you not wanting to leave your trainers behind. We will link some nice boots that we're loving and loafers on Instagram. Okay. My hen do is in King's Cross. Food, drinks, dancing with my best gals. Want a dress glam. I think, yeah, this is so exciting, but this lends itself to rentals like I think if it's your hen do and like maybe you want to wear white I don't know I'm just presuming here you want to go like all out maybe you don't want to buy a designer dress but you can rent one okay so yeah go on one of my best friends Pips Taylor she it was her 40th a couple of weeks ago and she rented a Annie's Ibiza dress from either I think it was either her or by rotation and it was that is the perfect hen do dress i've never seen and she rented it for like 70 quid yeah exactly and you can go into like selfridges and i think by rotation have a store they did have a pop-up yeah yeah you can put you there are a lot of stores now where you can go in and you can actually see the dresses because i think that's difficult sometimes isn't it that you rent a dress and then you don't even know if it's going to fit you or suit you or whatever um but yeah like the brands like is it aje aje that's always a really great brand yeah um oh i mean i was self-portrait self-portrait yes i mean they're not mega mega expensive to buy but still it's much better to rent self-portrait is always good and it depends what your style is but i think you're going to find something that's fab i mean imagine rocking up to your hen do in like a bowman bowman dress exactly although if it gets really loose then you don't want to damage it literally yeah exactly stay away from the red wine yeah that's so true yeah rent it rent it um going back to work after mat leave I want to look cool I want to look professional cool but not spend loads of money hmm professional and cool professional and cool I think this is you know we've just spoken about wide leg trousers I think you buy yourself you know some staple wide leg trousers i actually just got a co-ord from river island that is so would be such a good office outfit so it's a sort of a gray i can't really describe the fabric but it's a textured fabric a jacket and wide leg trousers and the jacket has got almost like a little bit of a necktie attached to it and as one word is it a pussy time it's not a pussy bow it's not a fussy bow um it's got a necktie attached to it and lovely it's it's got a necktie it's a neck like a I can't really describe it you know like a little kerchief type of thing but it's in the it's in the same um like print as the jacket and trousers and that all together is like a really nice look but then you could still wear those trousers with a nice belt um and whatever you know depends how casual you can be whether it's a nice t-shirt and then you could wear a different jacket with it i think you should go and get a couple of like coords and suits if you want to sort of that's quite cool yeah to be matching but then also you can wear those as separates as well because you can use the blazer and the trousers separately yeah um i think you should get some really nice basics as well like intimacy me into intimacy me intimacy me um intimacy me do these amazing in fact i was wearing one today they're like sheer um like roll necks and i've got them in brown and black but they do them in loads of different colors so if you get a couple of those obviously whilst it's still really cold it's been raining loads as well like let's be honest all the spring summer stuff starts coming out in the next month or so but we're not realistically going to be wearing any of it till the end of April beginning of May so you've still got time to like wear your your winter wardrobe and then I I think leather trousers or leather look trousers are amazing midi skirts always an absolute win yeah like a sort of a puffy one that you can wear with like a daintier shoe.

16:35Yeah. Like what you mean, like a Sarah Jessica Parker type? Well, just like, I can't remember what that fabric is, but they're almost a bit more structured. Oh, right. Yeah. Okay. That would be more Georgia. That wouldn't be my vibe. Yeah. But if that, if you wear that with like a trainer, that's quite a cool look. I'd love to see you. I've never seen you do that. I've done that a million times. I wear a white one here. Oh, you mean like, no, they're like cotton. Cotton. Yeah, but they're like structured cotton. They're not floaty. I got it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, so hopefully we've given you a few ideas there, but definitely pieces that you can make work with other things in your wardrobe.

17:09Yeah, yeah. Because, I mean, part of me thinks, God, getting dressed for the office every day. Well, you could wear that to the office. Yeah, it would be fun. Oh, yeah, yeah, it would be fun. It would be really fun. I was thinking that I've got all these lovely clothes, and I literally live in leggings and oversized jumpers. I know. What the fuck has happened to me? It's the same here. They're always dirty. I've been in dog shit. We'll be right back after this short break.

17:33Welcome back to this episode of Made by Mamas. Now, where were we? Things to wear in Dubai in February, George. You're going to Abu Dhabi, aren't you? Not in February, but yes. I think February, the weather is like not boiling, boiling hot in the evenings, but you do so glam. Dubai is quite glam. It really depends, again, on your look, but I would look at Never Fully Dressed because I think they have got some beautiful things, even if you want to be casual. but because they're just a bit different you'll feel really dressed up and put together I would get like those dresses the the long sleeve dresses and that you know they're down to the floor tight but always in the most amazing prints they're great to take because you can very lightweight yeah they're lightweight you can roll them up and put them in your suitcase but I think people always forget with the Middle East they think it's going to be boiling boiling hot yeah it isn't always in the evenings but also you spend a lot of time in air conditioning so you do need to take like light jackets and um yeah like stuff like that like not just your hot it's a place where you can wear holiday clothes but not super relaxed holiday clothes because it is a bit smarter i was going to say as well check out nobody's child nobody's child have got the most incredible pink like fuchsia it is a jumpsuit but it's it's one shoulder and it's got one amazing kind of long arm thing and it's like all floating and it's the way it moves and stuff it's beautiful stuff like that but just make sure you've got some great jewelry to dress up yeah and like you said it is glam but it depends on where you're going it depends yeah what and how you like want to do it i think silk wide leg trousers like drawstring ones um pretty lavish do an amazing pair they always sell out though so if you see your size just buy them i think that is the perfect thing to take to buy because you can wear them with a t-shirt you want to be casual you could have a slightly dressier top you could probably even wear them over like a swimsuit if you wanted to Yeah, yeah, yeah.

19:25I was going to say, that's a really nice look for the day as well. Yeah. Really lovely big hat, gorgeous bag. Yeah, yeah. I just think, yeah, don't forget to bring stuff that's a little bit warmer. Yeah, because it will get cooler in the evenings. Yeah, because it will get cooler. Leggings and top or forward slash jumper to cover bum recommendations. Where do you get your leggings from? Oh, my God. So, I've got the most incredible pair from Pangaea. Have you heard of Pangaea? Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, they do really great basics. but I've got a gorgeous pair of high-waisted and they've got this sort of like it's almost like a fitted band but you can't really see it um so it keeps you really really sucked in so I love Pangaea workout leggings I love Gymshark obviously Adenola um but like my what my day day leggings yeah um I've only got a couple of pairs because I wear active wear leggings I've got loads of print Varley absolutely I love Varley leggings me too but I've got to give a really really big shout out here to fnf their new active wear range is unbelievable um i was blown away i've got to be honest with you the set that i've now got i've got a couple they feel like varley quality for 22 pounds yeah yeah so get yourself down to tesco you get your shopping done you can whiz upstairs get yeah no 100 i was gonna say that i think for a little while varley had a certain look that they really owned yeah that's why they're so successful i do love listen i love varley i live in varley but i've now noticed there's so many high street stores that are doing a similar look i mean even like sweaty betty is less expensive than varley it's still expensive but it is not as expensive and they are doing similar like zip up tops and leggings and i think like leggings wise i probably prefer a sweaty betty do you yeah and i think they always have discounts on them.

21:17It depends which ones. Like I'm power leggings or zero gravity. There's two types that I really like. I've not tried Lululemon leggings but I know people love them. They're really expensive. Yeah. But then I just think there's always a discount. That's why we like F &F. Yeah. Yeah. But long t-shirts. Yeah. Leggings and top jumper to cover bum. Okay. So I've got one of my favourite ever jumpers is this hoodie that I got from, is it called Couture Club? Yeah. Or Culture Club? Couture Club, I think. It's an online brand. Yeah. And it's black and it's got this, it's just got like a couple of white.

21:58It's kind of like an adenola one, but it's slightly different. And it's just the material. I've had it for like two years. It's still super soft. It's really oversized. It looks incredible. I always get people say to me, where do you get that from? Yeah. Every single time I wear it. And it was probably only about 60 quid, but it's lasted and lasted and lasted. I do think the stuff that you wear day to day is worth spending on if you need to. You know, like if the quality is there and it's not expensive, then fine. But like sweatshirts, we've both bought like H &M sweatshirts over the years. Like they always do really good longer sweatshirts.

22:25Just size up. Size up. Sizing up is key. I really think that's a big mistake that lots of people make. Oh, yeah. Is that they'll get, say if, you know, I'm a size six, I'll get, if I get an extra small jumper, it just looks awful. I always either get a medium or a large. Always. Yeah, yeah. And that's what you have to do with so many clothes. It depends how you want to wear it. There's a brand called Colourful Standard that I really like. Oh, yeah, nice. Yeah, for sweatshirts and track suits and stuff like that. But again, you want to really size up in the jumper and then the bottoms you wear, normal size.

22:57And also, I'm going to really give a shout to Vinted here because I've got some really incredible Anin Bing boots off there, but also jumpers, T-shirts. The top tip with Vinted is never buy new with labels because they fake. Oh, interesting. I've been done a couple of times. Have you? Yeah. I still wear them because I'm like, well, I'll do it. Yeah, whatever. But they're not real. I still like it. Okay. Oh, that's good. That is good intel. I like that. And sorry to Vinted if that's not the case. But it's just like that. I think they do like have that check service, don't they, for really expensive stuff.

23:30Do they? Yeah, I think. Or is it eBay that does that? I don't know. But I just know that I've been done a couple of times and it's upset me. It's upset me. Wedding guest dress for mid-March wedding help. I'm tall, six foot, size 10. I hope that helps. Ooh. Okay. Well, I think you can't go wrong with Reese. Yeah. Especially if you're tall, right? I think Reese, never fully dressed. There is an incredible leopard print dress on there at the moment with like red ruffles. I think Reese is perfect because they do come up really long. Like I can't wear Reese trousers. No, oh God, no. I love Reese, but I always have to spend a fortune getting it taken up.

24:13I think Pretty Lavish is great. Again, like their dresses are full length, like quite long, beautiful. I mean it depends again like on your style but there's um like a polka dot brown dress with long sleeves and a little like necktie on there at the moment and I think that's a great mid-march wedding dress because it's you know still feels a little bit a little bit of spring but essentially it's gonna be cold don't be freezing as well I'm sure you wear like I went I actually got it from pretty little thing yeah pretty little yeah um and it was like um really soft like butter yellow and it was you know it's like almost like a it's boob tube and it almost had like a bit of a structure and then it was just this sheer skirt absolutely stunning absolutely beautiful and then over the top I just put on like um a little fluffy you know like a little fluffy coat and it was just cream and it just looks so beautiful together because the wedding was it was cold yeah i think a trouser suit actually for a march wedding great idea it's gorgeous yeah not if it doesn't even have to be like a blazer but you know just like a a nice jacket and lovely trousers yeah you so so right you don't want to be freezing the amount of times you see people at weddings and they think wedding and they think like little dress oh yeah and then like they are absolutely freezing and uncomfortable all day have a look at a range as well i know we've spoken about it on asos but they've got like their premium dresses and stuff there and asos is great for occasion wear because there's just so much on there yeah um let's go here best oh best under eye concealer for dark circles oh right you showed me this you taught me so i've got two that i love i've obviously got my laura mercier custard which i absolutely love but like incredible concealer for under eyes but also the maybelline one which is more matte yeah i used to love that the eraser yeah yeah what about you i now do the bobby bobby brown duo so it's a concealer corrector stick first right and then the i think it's called like skin um skin concealer it's the thicker one together yeah amazing is the is the color corrector one a bit orange yes it's like well there's different colors but you would never wear the color corrector on its own it's under it's to get rid of like the darkness before you put the stuff on yeah but I do think that is a hack like using a corrector first before the concealer yeah because just lasts so much longer and just look like you just get a better result yeah you do make sure your eyes are always really hydrated but not too but not it's like a fine line isn't there because you want your you don't want to ever put on concealer if you've got dry eyes because it just goes crusty and dry yeah powder on top and I would go lighter the better but I think a colour corrector is a really good tip yeah um and I Victoria I've just discovered Victoria Beckham Beauty oh have you had the foundation yet haven't tried it me neither but it's sold out everywhere and it's really expensive so you don't want to buy the wrong shade and get it wrong that's how she's making so much money I heard her say the other day I sell one um coal liner every 35 seconds and I thought oh good for you love but it's fucking good and then i bought it oh did you i really wanted to get the foundation i'm i will make a trek to self just to try it yeah yeah yeah okay let's go together and i'll make the 115 pound mistake oh my god is that how much it is it's a hundred i might be 114 i think that is how much that is disgusting it is isn't it i'm not doing that but then everyone who set who tries it it's like it's worth it it's amazing i like the georgia money i'm using Oh, I've just started a new one.

27:57Go on. By Terry CC Serum Foundation. I had the CC like highlighter-y thing before in the summer, which you could just wear on its own. And now I've switched to the foundation. Is it nice? And it's really nice. By Terry's brilliant. It's light. It's really, it's not ball coverage foundation at all. But it's really, yeah, it's got a skincare benefit. So it's got skincare in it like the Victoria Beckham one. Nice. So that's where I am at the moment. Okay. While I wait. We'll be right back after this short break.

28:31Welcome back to this episode of Made by Mamas. Now, where were we? Spring bomber. Oh. For fitness school run look. And also jeans, pumps, t-shirt combo. Oh, you don't ask for much. Jesus. Should we do a spring bomber? For a fitness school run look. That's your look. Fitness school run look. That is my look, isn't it? Fitness school run. Okay, I absolutely love, but my menopause brain is slowly shutting down. What's the brand that I love that I've got that bright orange corally one, the bomber? I don't know. Hold on, let me think. You know, the sort of like floaty-woty one. They're like hippies on there.

29:16Free people. That's it. I love that I knew that from you saying that. I fucking know how well you know, I love how much you know me. I love free people for bombers. Love free. And they're active wear actually. Like that for a fitness school run, look, actually free people is amazing. Really good. Really good. Don't get put off. The website is quite overwhelming. There's a lot of stuff on there. Hippie dippie. It's a bit like feathers and like, you know, fire festival. But if you can get through that and you're not going to end up dressing like you're going to Burning Man, there are some really cool bombers.

29:53I've got a bright orange one, which is so cool. It's like a fleecy material, but it looks incredible. You can literally, and it gets, you know, like in the spring when it's still quite freezing, I just wear it and then I've got a t-shirt on when it gets warmed up in the day. Yeah, gorgeous. So I check out three people. Actually, a nice bomber over your active wear is a really good look. Yeah, TK Maxx. Yeah, yeah. I got a lovely one in TK Maxx the other day. Yeah, you love TK Maxx. Have you got a good one near you? I bet you have. Yeah, I haven't got a good one near me. It's terrible. I really like Hush at the moment now Hush used to be like a bit of a granny brand in my eyes maybe it wasn't like maybe I'm just a granny now I'm not sure it could be it doesn't look like you're in that coat but I'm a farmer I'm joking and they've got some quilted sort of bomber style jackets on there they're about 130 pounds but what I do like about Hush is that you don't see everybody with it like I think M &S I love it but you do quite often see people with the same things because it's so accessible whereas like yeah like other brands like Hush, Mint Velvet yeah they're still readily available to everyone but they're slightly different same with three people yeah like if you get I mean the one thing that gives me the ick more than anything else is seeing on Instagram hi guys I'm just styling the viral Zara jacket and I'm like you and two million other people I know that puts me off puts me off that's lot like because go in and try and buy it but it didn't look very good on me i'm such a sucker yeah i know i get it but i mean i love an independent where where i can there's a brand called 70 and moshi that i really like but actually they do cool to jackets and stuff like that um if you just what if i something that not every single person has that's exactly it that is the difficulty i'm gonna um also need to talking about independence i've got to give a shout out to number four boutique which is in on isha high street oh my god they have got you know that beautiful beautiful like pilot's jacket that i've got that aviator jacket that's from stand studio which is a scandinavian brand they that's where i got it from you will not come out of there without buying something but they've got so many different brands in there but sort of one or two off pieces yeah and like everyone's wearing it i really miss the like boutique shopping i feel like it's going and maybe even gone in a lot of places i used to have a boutique that i went to near where my parents lived and i knew that i could go in there like i could have been invited out and 20 minutes later i need to be ready and i knew that i'd be able to go in there and buy a full outfit love that and no one else would have it on and now i just don't think that it exists let's keep supporting our independent boutiques guys actually and if you own a independent boutique then message us and we'll do some shout outs for them because I do think everyone wants to find a little gem like that yeah yeah um should we do one more yeah let's do one more what 10 staples do I need in my wardrobe as a mum of a toddler who wants to look nice okay I'm gonna start off okay you do a few I'll do a few I'm just gonna go for I know it sounds ridiculous you have got to have some really nice t-shirts oh just get yourself some really gorgeous t-shirts 20 quid 15 quid but make sure like we were talking about lovely round that heavy weight that you get three white three black there's your starting point and maybe a gray if you're feeling i don't know frisky i don't know why that work came into my mind now we know you're feeling frisky get a gray right gray would not be the color that i would turn to if i was feeling frisky but yeah georgia however uh so i'm going to start us off there a really really really amazing pair of jeans yeah come on let you've got to go and try your jeans on please find the time to go and buy some like try some jeans on yeah ordering them online we don't know what works um and like we spoke about earlier and i know it's a really simple thing but lots of people are wearing the wrong jeans in my opinion and they just if you get it wrong you can feel all kinds of wrong and it's actually really easy to update your look with a different cut of jean like to look a bit more modern or a bit more like it's just yeah and there are so many out there now i mean like m &s denim collection is wild and they're like 30 pounds you could get like a dark pair a black pair you know a few different but once you find like a shape you like i think you can kind of stick with it yeah um i would say a good track suit yeah not in the like kevin and perry um or juicy couture yeah or juicy couture not that sort of track suit but big girl all i wanna do is do it oh my god um like a thick heavyweight tracksuit that you could put with a smarter jacket or just that you know like if you're feeling a bit you can put on and it feels a bit nicer so i mean i love vali but they are mentally expensive m &s have got a really good one at the moment and they're like barrel leg joggers so they're quite cool uniqlo also do really good really good ones actually Uniqlo is quite a good place to go to get some staples like fleeces that look a little bit nicer especially if you're layering and you're going to the park or you say you've got a toddler but you still want to look nice I think getting the basics like that right.

35:25Wide leg trousers we're going back to wide leg trousers a really good belt because again finishes off a jean a wide leg trouser yeah um and and what and i really like i look i think things like people get a bit scared by leopard print but i think using your leopard print as a neutral let's be honest it just it makes you feel like you've got a bit about you even if you haven't slept and you've got a messy unwashed hair mum bun going on situation so like look at your leopard prints even like leopard print jeans or like a leopard bomber a really nice little add-on um and i think coat wise for me let's be honest you're not going to walk down the park in like a beautiful full-length wool coat which yeah i've tried before and then it's got covered in crap so i think you just have to be a little at the moment it's freezing cold so a nice puffer yeah i've got a really lovely maroon one from zara and it's really smart and i really love it but it's warm yeah that's actually i need to get a new puffer for walking around the theme park do we think we've done enough there yeah i think i mean and a good pair of trainers or couple of pairs like a smarter pair that are a bit like different you know like a more a smarter pair and then like a sportier pair yeah um and i think then you're good yeah some accessories yeah a few nice jumpers um thank you so much for sending in all of your questions today an absolute joy to answer them georgia little fashionista off she goes to the country to go and shoot some yep shit what heard my goats and thank you to you guys for sending them in we absolutely love these q and a's as always we'd love you to rate review subscribe and please give up a cost to follow.
