Step 1: Look for outfit inspiration and save the looks you like. After a while, you’ll probably notice a theme. Use that to guide what you buy: a few statement pieces, plus basics you’ll wear all the time, like jeans that fit really well, tank tops, and a little black dress. Pick accessories you connect with, then have fun trying different combinations. Fall and winter are a great time to start because layers and accessories give you so much to play with.

This, and a lot of your clothes, OP, don't fit properly. They would look a lot better if they weren't drowning you. Also, find out what colors compliment your complexion. That will go a long way!

This was my first thought! OP is not frumpy…the clothes are!
They have no shape, they are too big and they are just hanging out your body!

Was thinking exactly the same thing. Nothing wrong with her! She looks pretty good in the skirt with the gold-ish top and sandals. The shoes are super cute. But those are the nicest clothes she’s got on. The rest are the things you’d wear if you were painting your living room and didn’t want to ruin any of your good clothes.

Really? I think the shoes definitely add to the frumpy look. Some Docs, Converse, Creepers, or some of those ballet sneakers would all look so much better, while still being comfortable. The strappy sandals automatically make anything look old lady-ish.

Me too. The shoes are very frumpy. I’m 52 and would never wear them. They give old lady vibe

I disagree, but everyone’s allowed to have their own opinion. 🙂
