Start with movement
An opaque brown maxi skirt with an easy waistband can work across the week. Check that the hem clears the ground in the shoes you plan to wear and that you can sit and walk comfortably.
Work, weekend and dinner
- Work: tuck a crisp cotton shirt loosely into the waistband and add a longline jacket.
- Weekend: try a soft cream knit, a canvas bag and comfortable flats.
- Dinner: pair a tonal brown top with a softly structured jacket and a small bag.
Why it works
Keeping one familiar piece makes getting dressed simpler. Change the texture and the shoes to shift the mood, without needing an entirely different wardrobe.
