This is what Martina (56) wanted: comfortable looks that she can easily recreate at home. These four relaxed outfits suit her perfectly and the civil servant is thrilled with the result of her big Lea makeover.

Before: When it comes to her styling, Martina lacks ideas on a day-to-day basis. She wants fresh looks that she can recreate at home.

The hairstyle: Martina's hair is easy to straighten. Our hairdresser uses a paddle brush and hairdryer for this. This is gentler on the hair than the heat of a straightening iron, but works just as well.

The styling: The new, warm gold tone and the highlights really come into their own in curly hair. The soft waves are easy to achieve with a curling iron.

Profile

Martina is a real series fan, loves fantasy movies and the fitness trend Aroha (a mix of dance and fighting). She comes from Jesteburg near Hamburg and works as an administrative officer. Martina is 1.70 m tall, wears size 38 clothes and size 39 shoes.

Her wish:

I'm a spontaneous type, but I always run out of ideas when it comes to fashion. It would be great to look younger. I can't wait to see what you professionals conjure up.

Outfit 1: Delicate tones

Martina likes it casual and felt particularly comfortable in this outfit. Loose cardigan and wide blouses on top, slim jeans on the bottom - the ensemble has just the right proportions.

Outfit 2: Trendy office look

Boyfriend blazer (casual) and patent loafers (classy) are perfectly coordinated. A fun brooch and white blouse add even more freshness to the office outfit.

Outfit 3: A skillful mix

A sweater and jeans can be turned into an eye-catching look in no time at all: the red bag serves as a splash of color, just like the white watch. Ankle boots conjure up long legs - great!

Outfit 4: In a spring mood

Flowers give the blazer a romantic touch. With a white blouse and velvet bag, the styling looks modern and chic at the same time.

The hair: young, fresh & variable

Martina swaps wild curls for a cool short haircut. A rich color creates a lot of expression.
