We recently caught up with QVC presenter Julia Roberts<\/a> to discuss all things fashion, including how she’ll be changing up her style this year and refreshing her wardrobe as we head into the spring months!<\/p>\n Hi Julia, first up, how would you describe your usual style?<\/strong><\/p>\n “Fairly relaxed, I don’t often do smart clothes. When I’m not at QVC I’m even more relaxed but sometimes I ‘scrub up’ to go on air! I wear a lot of separates because of my shape, as with dresses I often have to go up a size but then find it doesn’t fit nicely – depending on the brand and cut of course.”<\/em><\/p>\n Do you have any favourite QVC fashion brands?<\/strong><\/p>\n “I’ve got about five pairs of MarlaWynne<\/a><\/strong> leggings and wear them a lot on air. They’re nice as a base as they give you the opportunity to try lots of different things on top. I always liked Together, which we no longer stock, so I’m at a bit of a cross-roads now trying bits and pieces from other brands. On Beauty Day, Stine our Stylist found me a Monsoon<\/strong><\/a> top that I absolutely love, so it’s little finds like that which are brilliant and I’ll continue to experiment.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n Shop the look: MarlaWynne<\/strong> topper (coming soon as our Today’s Special Value on Tuesday 22nd February) , White Stuff<\/strong> jumper<\/a>, Kim & Co<\/strong> pleather trousers<\/a>, Moda in Pelle<\/strong> sandals<\/a>.<\/p>\n Is there anything else you’re thinking of trying out or changing in your wardrobe this year?<\/strong><\/p>\n “I often wear things that cover me up, but I lost a little bit of weight recently so I’ve started to feel a bit more confident and might start looking into things that are more fitted going forward. I’d like to experiment with clothes from brands like Finery<\/strong><\/a>, as I don’t have anything in my wardrobe from them, as well as Monsoon<\/strong> and White Stuff<\/strong><\/a> because they\u2019re a little bit retro. As they say in fashion, what comes around goes around, and what I was wearing (probably back in the 1980s) is back in fashion\u2026 which is great because I liked it then and I still like it now!”<\/em><\/p>\n\n Shop the look: Ruth Langsford<\/strong> denim jacket,<\/a> Finery<\/strong> dress<\/a>, Moda in Pelle<\/strong> boots<\/a>.<\/p>\n Are there any other collections or new-season pieces you’ve got your eye on?<\/strong><\/p>\n “I’m a big fan of Skechers<\/strong><\/a> and their apparel collection<\/a> right now because I’ve been able to get back to the gym and I use my AeroPilates machine<\/a> virtually every day. Their workout leggings are especially great – they’re a really good fit, comfortable and wash well. I absolutely love Skechers’ Archfit trainers<\/a> as well for working out in. I also like Centigrade<\/strong><\/a> and tend to keep an eye out for a new coat from them every year. Their spring\/summer jackets are fantastic too.”<\/em><\/p>\n How will you be adapting your wardrobe for spring?<\/strong><\/p>\n “Lots of colour and natural fabrics, I really like cotton, viscose and jersey designs. Midi dresses are great in spring, but I have to be careful with those as I’m not very tall so sometimes they can be too long on me.”<\/em><\/p>\n Are there any prints you’d like to wear more of or try?<\/strong><\/p>\n “If I do print, I tend to be drawn more towards florals, but I remember wearing a Dennis Basso shirt years ago that had a graphic print and it actually looked really nice on me. So I’d like to be more adventurous with graphic and abstract prints.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n Shop the look: Frank Usher<\/strong> dress<\/a>, Clarks<\/strong> <\/a>sandals.<\/p>\n If someone was looking for a style confidence boost, is there anything you’d recommend?<\/strong><\/p>\n “Ignore the size on the label and buy a size you’re comfortable in. I think sometimes we buy things because we tell ourselves ‘well, that’s the size I am’, but it can feel a bit tight and restrictive. If you feel uncomfortable in your clothes you won’t feel confident, so even if you have to buy a bigger size, buy the size that you feel good in. I think if you’re not worried about your clothes you automatically look more relaxed anyway so I’m always happy to go up a size or even two for the right fit.”<\/em><\/p>\n Lastly, what go-to accessories would you choose to refresh an outfit?<\/strong><\/p>\n “I love shoes! But I can’t wear high heels because of ankle issues so if there was one thing I wish I could wear, I would have to say high heeled shoes. But apart from that, I think jewellery is a nice finishing touch for any outfit. I especially like earrings and how they frame your face. I’ve got pierced ears and probably don’t ever go out without earrings in!”<\/em><\/p>\n
