00:00 any winter weddings coming up, any winter,
00:02 I mean, you can also wear this for work.
00:04 Don't think about wearing,
00:05 think about maybe wearing it for a court shoot.
00:07 These dresses aren't necessarily
00:10 just for special occasions.
00:12 This would be definitely classic chic territory.
00:15 A beautifully cut dress, lovely, lovely colors,
00:19 gorgeous detail, and it's the detail
00:22 that actually makes it really stand out.
00:24 You can wear this for a winter wedding,
00:26 you can wear it for a summer wedding.
00:27 Also, as I say, don't think of anything but the best.
00:30 Think about wearing it with a pair of boots,
00:33 little jumper over the top, and a white jacket,
00:35 and it's perfect for every day,
00:38 in the winter, maybe autumn,
00:40 and for next spring, summer, as well.
00:41 Not wishing our lives away from anything.
00:44 Thank you very much.
00:46 And we have another dress here.
00:47 This, of course, I mean,
00:50 this is a bit of a no-brainer, isn't it?
00:52 We have got Parisian chic.
00:54 Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful colors here,
00:57 they are all wardrobe classics.
01:00 A wonderful skirt, I would have me, actually,
01:02 you know, I dress down, a chunky bit of that,
01:05 wear it with a pair of chunky boots,
01:06 there's no reason why this wouldn't be
01:08 an everyday dress on occasion.
01:10 The trench, Hobbes do the most amazing trench coats.
01:14 They do them in petite, they do them in regular,
01:16 and they also do them in plus size.
01:19 Absolutely wonderful, water-resistant,
01:21 work with everything.
01:23 These are a must-have thing in wardrobe.
01:25 They also do them in other shades,
01:27 and not just the classic camel,
01:29 but for me, if you're talking about a trench,
01:31 it's got to be a camel one.
01:33 Think about dressing it up with a perfect overcoat
01:36 to pair with suits, as well.
01:38 Alternatively, as I always say,
01:40 I go to Paradise in a T-shirt,
01:43 and you've got an outfit for every day.
01:46 Thank you very much, Josie.
01:48 Now we have Stevie.
01:50 Stevie in R.
01:53 - If you have a suit, you've got a beautifully tailored suit,
01:55 you are immediately drawn to androgynous there.
01:59 This, however, has a lovely feminine twist to it,
02:02 in that beautiful, slightly minty waist.
02:05 We've also made it a little bit more feminine,
02:07 with an addition of heels.
02:08 This would, though, work perfectly with loafers.
