Lady Like

This look is all about being feminine - it's about the pencil skirt, the sexy stockings, the satin blouse and the dainty handbag.

This skirt and top combo form Matalan fits the bill. At just £14 for the blouse and £12 for the skirt who said fashion couldn't be affordable. Just don't skimp on the tights/stockings for those who dare.

It doesn't have to be about matching two pieces and pink Chanel- keep it up to date and warm with chocolates and creams.

Keep your hair pinned up at work and tousle it down at night - create your own fantasy but make sure you do it like a lady.

Ruffles

Following on from the lady like theme, ruffles are everywhere. From shirts to shoes, bags to cuffs - the catwalks can't get enough.

We're not talking Shakespeare in Love here, put those velvet boots away, but add a bit of ruffle to your life and you're bound to feel a bit more flirty.

Try this ruffled belt at just £12 from Accessorize, it's stretchy and it's bronze - the perfect accessory for winter.

All that shimmers...

...is gold. You've got to have a bit of bling going on coming up to Chirstmas - haven't you? It's the time of year to be saving your pennies to buy that all important outfit which will see you through the season and here at Bolton Boutique we think we have found it.

This gold lurex dress form Dorothy Perkins, (£40), will certainly see you sparkling under the xmas tree.

Can't wait til the big day, then wear it on a Saturday night out in town, tights of course, goosepimples never have and never will be in fashion. You can get your boogie nights on in this number.
