We’re size 10 & 18 stylists – our leather & leopard print look is perfect for autumn & includes a Sainsbury’s bargain
BODY positivity influencers Nina Ambrose and Claire Hall have revealed the ultimate autumn outfit that looks good on all body shapes.
The stylish duo are on a mission to prove that clothing size is just a number, with Claire showcasing outfits in a size 10 and Nina modelling the same look in a size 18.
“I was always that girl that would look at a size 8 to 10 and think, ‘well, it’s okay for you lovely one. You can wear that, but I’m a lot bigger than you’,” Nina says.
“But actually, what Claire has shown me and what we do means that I look better than Claire sometimes.”
The pair run a series on Instagram named ‘Size by Side’, where they showcase outfits on their individual body shapes.
And it garnered so much attention that it caught the eyes of This Morning producers.
Nina and Claire now appear on the daytime TV fixture to offer style recommendations and advice to other women.
Appearing on show earlier this month, the pair modelled an autumn-ready outfit of a maxi skirt, leopard print blouse and kitten heel boots.
The faux leather skirt costs £59 from Sosandar and even comes in a petite length.
“This is currently sold out… unsurprisingly,” Claire tells.
“But they are having a new drop at the beginning of November.
“I’ve paired it with this pussy bow blouse.
“We love a pussy bow; it’s got lots of drama.”
Pussy bow blouses are defined by their large, soft bow tied at the neck, typically made from the same fabric as the blouse itself.
The bow resembles a ribbon or tie and is often associated with a feminine, elegant and somewhat vintage style.
The style modelled by Claire and Nina is from Anthropologie, and is currently on sale in-store for £51.20.
Fabulous Fashion Editor On Autumn Trends
WANT to look fabulous this season? Then listen up...
Here, Fabulous’ fashion editor, Clemmie Fieldsend, says these are the top 5 trends from the hottest catwalk designers for autumn 2024.
BOHO: The boho revival is a much needed breath of fresh air for autumn and means you can wear your sheer tops, girly frocks and big jeans with heavy duty boots.
But if the clothes aren’t for you think, big accessories like slouchy tote bags, big earrings and bigger bangles.
TEXTURE: Be it smooth leather, sumptuous faux fur or soft suede, textures are everywhere this season.
They add depth to your look, making you stand out as well as look more expensive.
BURGUNDY: Maroon, oxblood, berry- whatever you choose to call it fashion is seeing red this autumn.
The deep and rich colour is everywhere and works best with greys, black, dark blues and in head-to-toe.
LADY LIKE: Matching top and cardigan sets and pencil skirts sound dated but they go hand-in-hand with lady-like.
Mix with satin cami dresses and waisted blazers for an ultra feminine look.
LEOPARD PRINT: This season 75% of the catwalk was leopard print, according to Tagwalk – a huge majority.
It crawled its way in last season but its rife for autumn and all over the high street, be it shoes or floor sweeping coats, it’s a must have trend.
The duo finished their look with the Black Faux Leather Kitten Heel Ankle Boots from Tu at Sainsbury’s.
“These are great for day walking and dancing,” Nina says.
“They’re so comfortable.”
The chic kicks cost £30 and are available in shoe sizes 3 to 8 from the supermarket’s in-house fashion label.
Sainsbury’s bosses said: “A stylish staple for this season, our black ankle boots come in a faux leather finish.
“Featuring a side zip fastening, they have a kitten heel.
“An effortlessly chic addition to your footwear collection.”
