Woolly Winter
7 December 2016
West Yorkshire, UK
Winter fashion means one thing for me, bring on the jumpers.
They’re such an amazing fashion piece, and the thicker or cosier, the better. I
feel like I have an endless supply of jumpers all over my house, from the
amazing oversized knits to the slightly-too-small/too-scared-to-throw-away
jumper. As I live in the North, I can basically wear jumpers in the summer, but
chillier days means I can bring out the big guns.
Sadly, I can’t wear 100% wool because it irritates my skin,
but this doesn’t stop me! I love the cosy and warm feeling a wool blend adds to
jumper, so it’s the one thing I look for. Over time, I’ve been running out of
ways to style jumpers, until I came across a look on Pinterest, and wanted to try it out
myself. It reminds me a little bit of the drop-waist trend, and I’m feeling it!
All I needed was a jumper (check), a skater skirt (check),
and over the knee boots…(check)! One thing I noticed, was that the jumper was
oversized and almost as long as the skirt, so I basically copied this look. It’s
something a little different for me, but I really like the unique look. I haven’t
worn a skater skirt since they were the huge Tumblr trend back in ’08. Still, I
hold onto little gems like this cotton number because it’s a timeless closet
essential, and I can pair it with most items in my closet.
Similarly, over-the-knee boots are a new must for me. I was never into them
before, until I got my fair pair and now I wear them everywhere. I adore these
boots because they have a smaller heel, so I can still wear them in a formal
setting without ending up with burning feet!

All About That Backpack
30 November 2016
Happy last day of November! I’m making it a thing, it’ll
catch on. It’s so unbelievably cold right now. Actually, it is believably cold
because it’s winter, but I feel like it’s an English think to talk about how
the weather is totally unexpected no matter what time of year it is.
Polo Season
11 November 2016
Eldwick, UK
Autumn is an awesome time of year. It’s awesome for many reasons, and one of those reasons is being able to wear polo neck jumpers that are light grey without worrying about sweating through it. Was that too weird to reveal on my blog? Probably but I’m sticking with it. I’ve also really taken a liking to gilets or waistcoats, which I never really liked before.
It's Still Wellie Season
12 March 2016
Eldwick, Bingley, West Yorkshire
So technically, it's spring. Honestly, there's been very little snow and I'm quite disappointed as 2015/2016 was expected to have one of the worst winters ever. Actually, there's only been two days of traffic-stopping snow in West Yorkshire, and the enormous floods did way more damage than the snow has. Either way, I'm still saying it's wellie season.
