really elongate that torso.

      Bold And Bright

      Sometimes the simplest ideas are the best, eh honey? Basics can look brilliant in bold colours. This bright sexy blue top is so simple, but the combination of colour, flattering style and minute detail in the twisted straps make this a wow piece. All you need are some classic, neutral wide-legged trousers and low-key flip-flops to really show it off. A really cool confident look!

      Buy simple shapes in bold clear colours like this.

      Sometimes less is more. A beautiful coloured top doesn’t need to be crowded with accessories.

      Gok’s sneaky style tip

      Every stylish woman should own a pair of neutral-coloured trousers!

      Layering

      Big Entrance Elegance

      Now that’s what I call an arrival, lady! You can still make a big style statement in outerwear. You will really get noticed en route with a coat that is as flamboyant as a dress. Look for a coat with stylish detailing like the pussy bow necktie and wide sleeves here. Add a brooch to keep the look retro and on-trend.

      Add a leather belt to cinch it round your foxy waist.

      Three-quarter sleeves are great for styling; let a coloured jumper or long gloves peek out.

      Doubly Cool

      You will look so cool in this street-style outfit; the short-sleeved baggy tee looks sassy worn over a polo neck, and your arms will look super-slim! Layer cut-off shorts with thick tights or knee-high socks when the weather’s not as hot as you are.

      These chunky necklaces keep the emphasis on the cool drapey Tee, not the plain polo neck base.

      Sexy Seventies

      Cardigans aren’t the only way to layer on a cold day! Keep the focus on your foxy silhouette by wearing a sassy dress over a fitted polo neck. This is your sexy Seventies look – with knee-high boots and a long necklace over the polo neck!

images

      You can wear your favourite summer dress all year round by adding layers underneath!

      Gok’s sneaky style tip

      Open-toed shoes don’t need to be saved for summer – they look foxy worn with opaque tights or long socks.

      Cardi-coat Queen

      A big chunky knit is a great alternative to a coat, because it becomes part of your outfit rather than just covering it up! You can still show off your dress by belting a ‘cardi-coat’ open, and revealing just a column of what’s underneath makes your silhouette appear super-slim. All eyes will be on you, my foxy lady!

      It’s easier to cinch in the waist of a cardigan with a leather belt than a knitted one, and a contrasting colour will focus eyes on your waist.

      Fit Bird

      You can pile on those layers without adding bulk to your beautiful booty! With an outfit like this, you can still keep all eyes on your weeny waist. A cardigan jacket with a fitted hem, a wide skirt with a figure-hugging waistband and a bold, cinching belt all show off that awesome hourglass you got going on!

images

      For those days when you’re in between a coat and a jacket, a loose, short-sleeved cardigan makes a fashion-savvy solution.

      Jackets & Coats

      Biker Babe

      The leather biker jacket is another modern design classic you’ll have in your wardrobe for years. But you don’t always have to wear it with denim. It can also give a tough urban edge to your sexy Saturday-night dress, without covering it up. Wear with bright flats for a super-sexy finish.

      Three-quarter sleeves add a laid-back casual look to a leather jacket.

      All-weather Chic

      Is there anything sexier than a curvy woman in a classic trench coat? This coat will keep you looking cool whatever the weather throws at you. Belt it across your slimmest part to keep you looking super-toned in all weathers, or keep it open and cinched at the back to reveal what’s underneath.

      Add foxy confidence to a trench coat by turning up that collar.

      Eurotrash Jacket

      Honey, it’s time to join the jet set! A smart blazer will instantly give slim jeans and simple flat pumps a ‘grown-up’ European look. A blazer cut shorter and narrower than a suit jacket is the perfect light cover-up for the summer, and looks fabulously sexy. Roll up those sleeves for an even more confident look.

images

      A neck scarf in a pretty colour can soften skinny tailoring.

      Disco Cool

      High-waisted flares are your chance to be one of Charlie’s Angels! Worn with stacked platform heels your legs will look like they go on for ever! A cropped jacket will show off that higher waist and get the full length of those lovely leggy limbs! Don’t be afraid to go all-out retro by adding timeless classics.

images

      A tan leather bomber like this is one thing that gets better with age!

      Denim

      Sassy Stripes

      The all-time classic, boot-cut jean is every girl’s best friend. This is a wear-with-anything jean for those days when you just want a simple classic style. A cut like this works best in darker denim, and a little faded wear on the thighs will draw the eye in and make those pins seem super-skinny.

images

      A cute stripey vest top and jeans is a timelessly classic combination.

      Navy lady

      Wide-legged sailor pants look so stylish right now! Cut straight down from your widest point to the floor, these are super-flattering with heels or flats. Make sure the waistband is just tight enough, so that the back is snug around that gorgeous bum of yours.
