It's funny how fast the weather changes, just a few weeks ago, I could happily leave the house wearing flats and not worry about my feet getting cold. However, now I'm always thinking of thermal socks and heat tech tops (hi Uniqlo) which are totally unglamorous but they are a necessity right now! If leaving the house wrapped in a duvet was acceptable, I totally would (who's with me?). This outfit was taken not too long ago when such thoughts were definitely not on the radar just yet.
Blouse (Miss Selfridge) Blazer (H&M) Faux Fur (Vintage) Jeans (c/o Next) Shoes (Zara)
I like how the colours of the blouse and blazer work together and I think it's clear that us bloggers love a good faux fur stole come Winter time. I bought mine last year and I love how it pulls the look together and always transforms coats and jackets. The perfect winter accessory.
In keeping with the red colours in my outfit, I swapped the faux fur for this lovely red scarf.
What an amazing birthday pressie. I can't get enough of faux fur when the weather is this cold.
ReplyDeleteYour sister did a great job ^^
ReplyDeleteLovely scarf!!
xx
I keep hearing good things about those heat tec tops, will have to check them out next time Im in London x
ReplyDeleteThe shoes are super adorable! I wear shoes like this in the winter all the time, but I pair them with thick (but cute) socks. It works out well!
ReplyDeleteI think that a heat tec top would be a good idea -- especially right now! I'm freezing all the time.

I do love a bit of faux fur, I find myself stroking my collars like some Bond villain sometimes XD and your scarf is lovely even more so that it was handmade by a loved one xoxo
ReplyDeleteI love your circular scarf! Wow, you sis made you a fantastic present!
ReplyDeleteWe did have snow for awhile..it melted..but its still so cold! Love your outfits!
ReplyDeletei love home-knitted scarfs! reminds me the ones my mum made :D love the colour on yours!

ReplyDeleteOoo, I love the faux fur, and the scarf as well. My plan is to knit something warm over Christmas break, but who knows. I might just be all talk!
ReplyDeleteThe cowl is lovely! I wish my sister would knit me something, :D
ReplyDeleteThis is such a perfect winter look. The pink blouse and blouse go perfectly together. And how sweet of your sister to knit you the scarf. She did a fab job.
ReplyDeleteKaren,
ReplyDeleteAmazing colors!

Ooh love the stole and the hand knitted scarf, way to go to your sis I could never do something like that! Yup I'm cracking out the heat tech Uniqlo tops as well.. xx
ReplyDeleteThe stole is so sweet and I love the colour of the top on you. Those flats are so sweet. My favourite part of the outfit is the scarf. It looks so warm and the colours are fabulous. How very adorable of your sister.

ReplyDeleteThose shoes are truly adorable!
ReplyDeleteAww how cute! I love how you can wear that jacket with a stole or a scarf!

ReplyDeleteaww winnie, you look so purdy! xoxo
ReplyDeletehow thoughtful (and talented) of your sister! it looks really warm. i could use one of those..especially made with love D:
ReplyDeleteOoo I love all the warm reds, Winnie! Oh and I am sooo with you on wearing a duvet out! My lordie! It is cold up here in Edinburgh -- and whenever I say that I'm always told that the past two winters were colder --eesh! I've been doing the same and bundling up in about four layers every time I leave the house. I am secretly impressed and jealous of the girls I see walking about in short dresses and a little jacket -- how do they do that?
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a wonderful week!
xoxox,
Lar
Love that little fur you are wearing...SO cute :)

Cute. =]
ReplyDeleteLove the colours in this outfit xx
ReplyDeleteI've never tried anything from NARS but I've heard amazing things about the blush 'Orgasm'. Maybe I should give it a try just to add to my packaging? haha Love that blouse and always so enivous of how colourful you are :) xxxx
ReplyDeleteIs the Uniqlo heat range as good as I'd imagine? It's not the most flattering of attire but I have always walked past the range and been SO tempted to give it a go... It was snowing today in Sheffield! Bonkers!! ♥ Claire @ Jazzpad
ReplyDeleteIt's ridiculously cold now, and you're right - it changed so quickly! Coral suits you so much, looking gorgeous xx
ReplyDeletewww.amybell-thelittlemagpie.blogspot.com
it is so sweet of her! It suits you well
ReplyDeleteoh i loveeeeee the faux fur vest, i so need one! I've seen a few around but they look soo tacky and cheap,lol.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's getting really cold over here too, i've been in nothing but boots, sweaters, and scarf! Yes, definitely not the most fashionable outfit but i'm so cold that i don't care! lol
Your sister is so sweet! I love the color she chose for your scarf. I used to knit in high skool and i still remember how to do it except the last part,and that is closing the end of the scarf, which is the most important step i would say! lol

Loving the red scarf! I have similar one in blue :) And I agree, those heat tech shirts from Uniqlo seem like such a necessity now!
ReplyDeletelovely scarf :)
ReplyDeleteThe faux fur looks lovely with the blazer as does the gorgeous scarf, I wish I knew how to knit like your sister! x
ReplyDeleteGood look. (:
ReplyDeletelove the bright pink/orange colour <3
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling of wanting to go out without socks!!haha love the red shirt xx
ReplyDeleteI really love this colour combination, it looks fab on you! Even I (the human radiator) have been cold recently, lots of layers are needed!
ReplyDeleteMaria xxx

Cute shirt;)
ReplyDeleteGreat outfit! I love it :)
ReplyDeleteReally love the coral! Great scarf...kudos to your talented sister for making it! x
ReplyDeleteNice blouse and blazer
ReplyDeleteI a definitely with you on the duvet front! I really need to start investing in thermals. I've been meaning to pay Uniqlo a visit for some time. You're brave wearing pumps tho...I can't bear to go out without thick socks and boots at the minute.
