This Paul Smith dress has the perfect mix of feminine and business. In my hair, the only hairband that doesn't pinch. It's by Valentino (via www.netaporter.com) so you can expect something from that. Ideal for keeping your hair in check with this stormy weather. The bag is the ladylike leather clutch by Gucci, (€1250 via www.gucci.com) which I also love so much because of its chic and businesslike approach.

The bag reminds me of the iconic Asprey handbag of Margaret Thatcher (once auctioned for €25,000). Maggie used her bag strategically in her political dealings. When she placed it prominently on the table, you knew: she doesn't like it. The Oxford Dictionary has even included the expression ‘to get handbagged’ in their dictionary.

My ankle boots are from last season but I'm still in love with them. A small investment but hey, give a girl the right pair of shoes and she can conquer the world. And otherwise, I always have that bag to get someone where I want them to be.
