Clothes and Fashion

Worrying about your fashion sense may well be the last thing on your mind since your divorce but if you don't want the style police banging on your door, being rude about your wardrobe and fondling your breasts then get your act together.

dreamstime_2657202.jpgHow you look and present yourself to the world at large is at the core of your sense of self and going out stylishly and attractively dressed can work wonders if getting divorced has sapped your confidence.

If you’ve taken to traipsing to the corner shop in your trackie bottoms, an old t-shirt and your slippers, you might want to think again about the image you are projecting. Not only are you committing a heinous fashion crime but you are also denying yourself the right to feel attractive. You should not be hiding awayin your post divorce life but grasping the opportunity as a fledgling single to get out into society again and meeting new people and making an effort about the way you look is a big part of this process.

Help is at hand
There is no shortage of advice about making the most of your assets. Bookshops are laden with books by Trinny and Susannah , Nicky Hambleton-Jones amongst others showing you what to wear to flatter your body shape plus sound advice on disguising the wobbly, lumpy bits.

No need to shop till you drop
Shopping online is now easier than ever and leaves you free to enjoy your leisure time without having to wrestle with traffic jams or crowds and its rapid growth means that there is no excuse not to make an effort, with websites that cater to every style and budget.

If you don’t have any particular fashion aspirations in your life after divorce, but just want a style that doesn’t date, there are plenty of companies that cater for the classic look for both men and women. John Lewis have some classy clothing for both men and women with some lovely dresses for special occasions as well as casual clothing for both sexes . Not always the cheapest option but when you buy something from them you know it won’t fall apart the first time you wash it and, if it does, their second to none customer service will help sort things out for you.

Big girls
For a long time it has been very difficult for women to buy appealing, flattering clothes in bigger sizes but, at last, designers and manufacturers seem to be realising that we are not only getting taller, but bigger, with the majority of women in the UK wearing a dress size 16 or over.

If you don’t have a lot of money to spend on clothes Dorothy Perkins stock a big range of clothes for women in a good range of sizes. Lots to choose from with skirts starting at prices as low as £10 and dresses for the summer from £20.

Well, I’ll eat my shirt!
If you thought the term organic only applied to food you would be wrong. Seasalt Organic Cottons became the first fashion company in the UK to ga...

  dreamstime_100533.jpgFor the girls
Remember that a simple skirt and top or dress in lovely fabric can be transformed with jewellery, a pair of fab shoes and a groovy handbag into a head turning outfit and for men, a decent pair of trousers and a well cut jacket can carry you through most occasions if you accompany them with a smart shirt and a tasteful tie. 

That bastion of the British shopping scene, John Lewis, has a small but delicious collection of frocks for those dressing up occasions and a range of lovely bits and pieces and very pretty jewellery to go with them. Look out for gorgeous must have bags from one of the most reliable and best respected names in British retailing.

Don’t forget that underneath that fabulous outfit you need some underwear to match and leading purveyors of knickers on the web , M&S, should be able to sort you out with their massive selection of pants, bras and shapewear (once known rather less glamorously as support garments) to hold in the bits you’d prefer you didn’t have and to give you a more streamlined look. Featuring more brands than you could wave a thong at including a good range of less expensive bras and pants.
For gorgeous tights , stockings and other hosiery Tightsplease has everything a girl could desire. They also sell a good selection of underwear.

Offering clothing for discerning gentlemen with dress and casual shirts traditional accessories including silk ties and a good selection of cufflinks, you can look effortlessly stylish in no time.

Look Good, Feel Great

Look good, feel great

The importance of looking good after divorce

If you’ve just been through a stressful break up, chances are you won’t be feeling that great about yourself. Your confidence may be at rock bottom and your respect for yourself has quite likely taken a hit since your divorce not only leaving you shell shocked, but looking as washed out physically as you feel emotionally.

You may not see the point of making an extra effort or indeed any effort, with your appearance at this point in your life but hiding away watching soaps on the TV unshaven and unkempt is the exact opposite of what you need to be doing.

Now is the time for women to pay extra attention to their makeup and hair, and for men to shave regularly and make a visit to the barber. Why? Looking good after divorce will not only make you feel good but will in turn affect the way other people react toward you making you feel more confident as your self esteem spirals upwards in a self-fulfilling cycle that should not be under estimated.

Paying attention to grooming as well as how you dress really can change your life - witness the success of makeover dreamstime_439488.jpgprogrammes such as What Not To Wear on the Beeb and Channel 4's How to Look Good Naked.

Popular magazine titles that give great advice and help on choosing and using cosmetics and grooming products, changing your hairstyle and colour - for both sexes – and generally helping you to make the most of yourself. Many magazines can be bought on subscription.

Exercise will also help your new look and start to get you toned up ready to have some fun and getting your hair done, having a facial or a massage also means mixing with others in a relaxed atmosphere where you can chat with your stylist, beautician or masseuse and other clients. You’ll not only find it relaxing but beneficial as therapy too so that when you go out for an evening with friends or on a romantic encounter you will not only look, but feel, like a new person.
