What the hell I might as well face the fact that im more the Alpha female then the girly girl in nudes and rose coloured clothes.
I very much describe myself as a Tomboy in heels.. And a real tomboy I was.. Really i was, Ya know the type, tree climbing, football loving and football playing, side note; I taught my brother how to play football..:) I was a 5 aside football champ (if my memory serves me well) So it would comes as no surprise that I love wearing suits, more specifically pants suits, and in particular masculine suits… worn with heels.. Naturally
Nothing sexier then a well fitted suit worn with heels. With a little flash of flesh underneath the jacket. Totally my jam!
And suits i wear often, perhaps not as often as i used to, Being out of the “corporate world” now and all but i still find excuses to wear them nevertheless. So lets take a look at some of my recent suited looks..
My go to place for good fitted inexpensive suits are Massimo Dutti, Riess, ted baker and zara. But nothing beats getting a bespoke tailor made suit.
You will notice that I like to have fun with clothes generally and where possible (which is always the case) I like to add a little ‘Sade’ to things.
My Check Double Breasted Suit with straight leg trousers was Bespoke tailor-made. A great option for picking and choosing style, fabric and fit. This service is widely available online. Have a look at this one
My Grey Suit was from Massimo Dutti I decided to go all out masculine with shirt an tie for this look.. very Sartorial toped with a black and white houndstooth cashmere coat and well of a course, a hat.
My very old Black Suit from is from Zara Quite plain and simple, until you add a little drama, in the form of a leather fringe belt as i did. Gives the suit a whole new and not so boring look.
My favourite of all is again old, pinstripe suit from Massimo Dutti I used to wear (quite a lot) to my corporate world of work. It has been sat dormant for a few years but i love to keep and reuse clothes so it came in handy for this strong structured and boss chick look.
I have linked great alternatives below together with accessories. Check out the Pinstripe suit from Mango now on sale for £39.98 for the whole suit! Amazing!
Enjoy.. and till next Time Xo

My goodness, massive round of applause. Job well done on this post. Everything is sheer chic perfection. All the pieces individually are a wardrobe must have and collectively you pulled off a stunning look. I love the hint of “Sade” you gave each outfit. I have asked Mango to notify me once the blue pinstripes trousers are back in stock. ????
