I don’t know about you but I absolutely adore Christina Hendricks…. her curves have been all over the press but we also love her character, confidence and her dress sense both on screen and off.

Here at Marisota we like to think we have something of a penchant for classic style combined with fashion - the perfect Joan Holloway look!

This gorgeous magi-sculpt dress is perfect for getting that curvaceous look that’s reminiscent of the Mad Men cast. Available in black or red it’ll hold you in and give you flawless curves in all the right places!

Another way to get the Mad Men look is to emulate the character Peggy Olson (Elisabeth Moss).  This stylish cardigan is perfect for getting the gorgeous 60s style!

So give a nod to classic curves this Christmas and take a leaf out of Christina Hendricks’ book.

It’s that time of year when the office party is looming, and the discussion is always the same…. what are we going to wear? If you have the luxury of nipping home to get changed you life will be made much easier. but if you can’t you could feel a little stuck.  This is our  guide to a quick day to night look that’s perfect for your office party.

If yours, like many offices has a Christmas lunch do you may be left wondering what to wear. After all, you’ll also have to wear it in the morning to work before heading out. These parties can often go on into the wee hours so you need something comfortable but that isn’t out of place on a night out.

The key to this look is accessories. Opt for skinny jeans or leggings and high heeled boots (presuming it’s a dress down day, if not you might need to get changed at work) with a simple top. Casual enough for daywear but easy to dress up.

Something like this pleat front jersey top would be ideal!  If you don’t have a dress down day this could also be work with smart trousers and court shoes for the daytime. Dress it up at night with a waist belt, feature necklace and earrings!

This studded waist belt is the perfect solution! It features just enough sparkle for a glam look and should fit in your bag easily!

After a few depressingly rainy days we thought we’d discuss our favourite items from the autumn/winter range for keeping warm and dry!

When it comes to keeping out of the rain you really can’t beat a good waterproof coat. This stylish 3 in 1 waterproof jacket has everything you need to keep snug; including taped seams and a coordinated fleece. It’s particularly good for evenings like Halloween and bonfire night when you’re bound to be outside all night (unless you’re at a party)!

Team the jacket with your favourite jeans from yesterday’s denim feature and a pair of wellies for the perfect splash happy outfit. We have a great range of wellies at Marisota, and they’re a far cry from the frumpy styles you see around. These printed wellies in a wide E fitting mean you’ll be comfortable, dry and fashionable all at once. Plus they’ll definitely brighten a rainy day!

If you (like many of us) can’t bear to be without your heels then Wedge Wellies could be the answer. They come in a fabulous choice of shades and styles but they all feature a built in wedge heel to give you extra height and add a little bit of oomph to your look. These candy wedge wellies feature the new flex style to give you the most comfortable fit to the calf.

Now that your waterproofing is sorted you need to get wrapped up, so check out the Marisota collection of scarves, hats and gloves for style and comfort!

This blackberry hat from Joe Browns is a cute and comfy way to keep your head snug!

So get all wrapped up and enjoy the autumn/winter season….. I know I will!

The new lines that have been added to the Marisota autumn/winter collection include some gorgeous looks for wintry days. This is my perfect outfit for mornings when you have to drag yourself out of bed and into the rain.

This gorgeous stud tunic is lovely and thick; ideal for keeping out the wind. Plus it’s a gorgeous flattering shape and has a stunning neckline so there’s no need for extra jewellery.

Team it with a pair of leggings or thick tights. These Arlene Phillips velvet leggings are perfect for getting the luxury trend and keeping warm.

Choose a pair of comfortable boots to keep out the water like these Henny James Anna over knee boots.

then all you need to add is a cosy scarf, hat, gloves, umbrella and jacket for the ideal autumn/winter outfit!
