Winter Coat Everyone Needs.

Its been a while since I wrote a outfit post. These photos and another outfit post, have been on my camera for some time now. I just haven’t felt inspired to write anything, until yesterday, when we had the first -1c figures for this Winter. I broke out this Navy Puffer coat from Zara(sold out) Similar. Its been sat in my wardrobe since I did this photo shoot back in October, because it has not been cold enough to wear it, until now!. A puffer or quilted coat as some call it, I believe, has a place in everyone’s wardrobe. Whether you are a Mum on the School run, going to the gym or on your Sunday afternoon walk this coat fits into anyone’s life. Who doesn’t want to feel wrapped up in something that feels like their duvet, to give them some comfort with these really cold days that we are now having.

This coat comes with a WARNING though. A Puffer coat can be a tricky item to pull off, get it wrong and you can end up looking like a Michelin man!. In this post, I have been careful to get these proportions right and I think of pulled it off!!. I have paired this with a Metallic crew neck Jumper from Marks and Spencer(SOLD OUT) Similar, a Black Levi Skinny 711 and High Ankle boots from Zara (Similar) to make sure that it balances well. I have also worn this coat with a pair of Stan Smiths or Converse Hi tops which also work well too.

There are so many Puffer Coats on the market at the moment, that you are really spoilt for choice. Here are some of my favorites.

 

I hope this gives you abit of inspiration and to give the Puffer Coat a try if you haven’t before.

If you have had your eyes peeled for the latest trends you will know that you can not escape two things, 1. Checks are everywhere 2. And so is the colour RED. That being said Midi skirts crept in last season and have given no signs of leaving any time soon. If you have been reading our blog for a while, you will know I could not give two hoots on whats on trend, but more if that item suits my figure.  For me, my style is always evoling, because I am a emotional dresser! In the morning depending on my mood, and what I am doing that day, dictates to what colour and style I will adopt for that day. I always want to push my boundaries to never get bored of my capsule wardrobe and for me trying out different styles and making them work for my figure is what its about. The Midi skirt has wangled its way into my capsule wardrobe. Today I have styled it with a soft, snuggly Jumper from George@ASDA Simple! The colours really complement each other, and when it gets a bit more chilly I will add a pair of black tights to keep warm.

This Checked Midi Skirt is from Zara and is quite a thick material which is great for the upcoming cold winter we are expecting. It has three large buttons down the side and splits at a more modest level. Im looking forward over the next weeks seeing what this skirt will also work well in my wardrobe. Im in the process of creating a video on ‘Shopping my wardrobe’ where I will be re-working keys pieces from my wardrobe to get some fresh ideas on new outfits without spending a penny!. Around November time I start to get itchy feet or hands should I say, as I start to get a bit bored of the new items I added at the end of august, but I dont need to buy anything new so there is the tug of war I have. I am determined not be sucked in by all this fast fashion and overspending on things when it is not necessary. I feel in the blogger world that we can be the worst for this. With PR brands throwing their latest items to try, its hard to strike the balance. Sorry about the rant I think this is subject I might leave for another blog post!

If you remember at the beginning of last year seeing all over Instagram the Bella Freud stunning Red 1970 Jumper. The colour of red was very striking, and was complementary against the stone wash high waisted jeans. The only down side was the price tag, a whopping £290!!!. For some thats a reasonable amount to ask for a jumper, and in some ways it is as its made with Merino wool which is the finest and softest wool of all time. Saying that I cannot bring myself to spend that kind of money on a jumper. There was no need to fear because at some point the highstreet fashion gods heard my cry and BAM!! New Look brought out this champion of a Jumper that I am wearing today. Now granted it does not say 1970 on it, but what it does have is the hue of red that is so on point this season and is SUPER flattering for all skin tones. What I am focusing on today is this Beautiful blue toned red that is in all the shops. When worn on your top half, it sharpens the whites of your eyes to make them sparkle and why not also match your lipstick to your top and you will have the sparkly-list gnashers in town!.

Everyone needs a RED knit of some kind in their Autumn Wardrobe, so I have pick out some of the best on the high street right now for you.
