Hello, I'm Valeria, 46, having trouble defining my current occupation, I guess semi-retired. I am a classic pear shape, love my upper body but challenged in legs department. I think I have Clear Winter coloring, at least those are the colors that bring me joy.
We recently moved from France to Portugal, I absolutely love living here but stylewise am lost. All I know how to do well - corporate minimalism and off-duty drama - are completely irrelevant now.
I am trying to stear away from jeans and button down combo, and try to bring in more skirts and dresses. Also, somehow I feel the need to cover up a bit more. I used to love to bear some skin, but now that my daughters are teenagers I suddenly want to be more demure.
So I am adapting slowly, learning how to do casual.
On a bright side - I am 5' 4", when we lived in US it was a bit of on a petit side, american brands are usually too long for me in the torso, but here I am perfectly average hight, all clothes fit well.
Another fantastic thing - great bright light all the time, and also something is always at bloom, lots of color - so I can wear fucsia head to toe and it looks perfectly in place.
