All Age Fashion Trend - A Blazer And Tailored Short

Any article, whether in a magazine or online that concerns fashion for all age groups and how to wear trends appropriately, always draws my attention, so imagine my excitement last night when OH came in with the M&S magazine, jam packed with trends for every age and sections on "yes you can wear a blazer, tailored shorts etc ".

When I absorbed all the looks, I couldn't help but wonder, how I find it so easy to put outfits together for other people unyet I often feel I need to see stuff in black and white, in print, before I can be convinced a certain look or an individual garment, would work for me. However there were quite a few pieces I liked.

but they didn't include the outfits above. A jumpsuit for an over 40 and a skirt, way to short for an over 50, surely? Nice skirt though, just should have been on the over 30 model in my opinion, what do you think? I can't say I know any over 50's with a pair of legs like that!

Being Mrs Fab means mostly being Mrs Casual, as I still do school runs and when working, wear a uniform, so I am mostly "dressed down" to be honest, which is the reason I really liked the casual look above for a bit of playground chic! Three quarter sleeve jumper £29.50, Jersey Top £12, Jeggings £18 and cluster necklace £9.50. I am still searching for a pair of Cowboy boots and this outfit would look great with a Tan pair.

The magazine also had all of the item codes, to make shopping even easier if you saw a piece(s) you wanted to buy, so if you are passing an M&S do pick one up, as the clothes look much nicer put together rather than searching online, as I sometimes feel there is almost too much to look at. I'm just waiting for payday next week, then my spring haul will be on order, I've seen a few other pieces I want to get and am getting excited already!

New Stock Satchel Style Mulberry Alexa In Fashion Trend

The more time I have had to think about it, the more I think I may be going off it (a tad).
I think any "it" bag lover got a bit caught up in the hysteria surrounding the Alexa, after all it seemed to tick all the boxes. satchels were going to big news for s/s10, vintage ones were fetching a pretty penny on ebay and this one was even named after Alexa Chung (not that that has any kind of impact on any of us who are actually old enough to be her Mum) but we do appreciate a good bag, no matter who it is named after.
I have been thinking about the satchel style and how practical it is when in use as a bag. I thought back to when I had a Fendi B, I got so many compliments on it as it sat perched effortlessly, in the crook of my arm, but if you had seen me trying to extract my purse from it whilst at the checkout in Tesco, with an umbrella in one hand, my mobile in the other and all the shopping to contend with, it was a complete nightmare. You unclipped the flap which was stiff, no soft squidgy leather, so it didn't stay up whilst you hunted around desperately for something inside.
With the Alexa, you can of course eliminate that problem as it can be worn across the body,although this isn't always a good look for larger ladies, as the strap will sit between two big bosoms and the bag will be perched next to one of your hips, making you appear even wider than you actually are.
Then, not to help matters, I saw these recent pictures and I am not so sure I like the way it looks, all sloppy and just "hanging there" with little structure.

Have you or anyone else you know bought this bag? If so, what do you think? and if you really must have it the Butter coloured one pictured at the top of this post, is back in stock at net-a-porter, but hurry!
