Grown-up look for Daybreak: Lorraine in a James Lakeland dress

My mother, Anne, and I grew up like sisters as she was only 17 when I was born.

She and my father didn't have much money but she never went out looking anything いっそう少なく than immaculate, her lipstick always in place.

I think she despaired of me as when I was growing up, I was never into fashion and I was a bit of a swot.

On my first day at work at the East Kilbride News, I wore a cowl-necked brown sweater with brown cord trousers, cowboy boots and an Afghan coat.

I thought I was the bees' 膝s 反して, in reality, I looked ridiculous.

In the Eighties, I'd put on tights I'd ripped so that I'd look more like Debbie Harry.

Even today, when I am off-義務, 慰安 is my watchword. I'll 選ぶ for ジーンズs with a cotton 最高の,を越す .

I've got an old sweatshirt with a picture of the island of Barra on it. I got it when I was 20 but wouldn't dream of throwing it away.

By contrast, I have to look smart for work and I can't wear the same outfit too often. Fashion 専門家 示す Heyes knows what 控訴s my 人物/姿/数字.

I don't like to show the 最高の,を越すs of my 武器 so he'll help me find something with a sleeve or will team a 包む with a dress that keeps that part of my 団体/死体 covered.

On GMTV I used to '相続する' the 始める,決める from the breakfast presenters and I tended to wear brighter colours then.

But, with my smart Daybreak 始める,決める, that's changed - subtly but 意味ありげに. So with the help of my lovely stylist, Gemma Shanley, I've gone for a more grown-up look. I 特に like this James Lakeland dress in blue with dark パネル盤s and a zip at the 前線.

I've settled at a size 12, which 控訴s my 団体/死体 and age. So I dress to flatter in what I would call grown-up 着せる/賦与するs from the High Street - fitted jackets and pencil skirts from 白人指導者べったりの東洋人 共和国, Gap, Karen Millen, M&S, the 時折の Ben de Lisi at Debenhams and Diane 出身の Furstenberg.

The 客観的な is sassy and classy - a bit like Karen in Will and Grace. The new 始める,決める also gives me the 適切な時期 to show my 脚s and feet, so I can indulge my passion for shoes. I wore a pair of Prada shoes with peep toes and Perspex heels with the James Lakeland dress.

WARDROBE CHECKLIST

NIGHT DRESSES: I have only a small handful of evening dresses at home. I tend to give them away when I’ve worn them a few times.

TROUSERS: My smartest trousers are a 黒人/ボイコット pair I got from Next. I have a few others from 示すs & Spencer but, for everyday use, I’m happiest in a pair of tight ジーンズs from New Look. I’ve only started wearing

pairs of Next ジーンズs.

SHOES: Shoes are my indulgence. I probably have about 40 pairs in Scotland, 含むing trainers and Birkenstocks, which I like to wear in the summer, because they keep your

POSH FROCKS

I've got a few designer items, such as a lovely Dolce & Gabbana dress and a few 'going-out dresses'.

There are some Vivienne Westwood ones from her diffusion 範囲 which takes account of the fact that women have tummies and boobs but, as she 削減(する)s so 井戸/弁護士席, they accentuate all your best bits.

I've also got a Ben de Lisi ivory silk dress with a 急落(する),激減(する)ing neckline that I wore to the Baftas. People said it was a bit too low 削減(する), but I liked it. And I have a 黒人/ボイコット 床に打ち倒す-length dress from Episode with a bejewelled 最高の,を越す for smart occasions.

HIGH STREET FAVOURITES

I buy from shops such as Hobbs, choosing simple lines. I bought a nice green 控訴 (above) from there. I like 封鎖するs of colour - 特に blues and greens and, because of the colour of the orange (土地などの)細長い一片 of my football team Dundee 部隊d, I've got a few outfits in tangerine.

I also like 季節風, as it does good colours which look 広大な/多数の/重要な on TV, 同様に as cardigans with a bit of structure to them. I like Zara, Next, Mango and Gap, too. And, occasionally, I'll go to Jack Wills in St Andrews for casual 着せる/賦与するs.

JEWELLERY

I've got a (犯罪の)一味 that cost £150 which was my wedding 禁止(する)d. Steve bought me a diamond (犯罪の)一味 ten years later in 2002, but it's the 初めの one that I treasure most. I don't like lots of fussy jewellery. I only have one pair of earrings; diamond studs Steve got me.

SHOES & BAGS

Shoes are my big 証拠不十分. I love the designer Betsey Johnson. My favourites look like the shoes Judy Garland wore in The Wizard Of Oz.

My favourite pair are tortoiseshell Christian Louboutin's with six-インチ heels, which I only wear on 空気/公表する. 示す Heyes bought me a pair of peach stilettos for my 50th birthday from Kurt Geiger.

As for 捕らえる、獲得するs, I use a 黒人/ボイコット leather Mulberry one which is more like a small スーツケース to 蓄える/店 all my things.
