Layers of winter


Winter layering
I love a little layering but this weather is just not practical for dressing!
Still, it's a good chance to buy a fabulous coat, and even better many are in the sales now. Walking through town is much more interesting when people have pretty coats. :)

Colourful coats
I haven't always found winter dressing very inspiring, but the ladies of Gossip Girl make the once humble winter warm excessively appealing.

Some ideas for ladylike winter dressing:

Make sure you dress up warm dears!

My outfit: Wallis coat, Marc by Marc Jacobs bag, Topshop 'jeggings', Joules wellies, grey H&M scarf, purple scarf from market.

Florrie - this is a brilliant post. I too am all for the layering today. Base layer is Bridgedale Walking Socks, American Apparel boy short pants and a DP Vest, skinny Monsoon grey/blue jeans, French Connection Tshirt Dress, Kew Long Cardigan, My cathkidston shawly type scarf (the one I wore when we met. Then when I had to brave the weather I popped on my husbands Merc Parka, fuscia lambswool lined john Lewis gloves and purple Doc martins. Not too shappy and lovely and warm.

Love the layout of your post too - wish I was so clever! Amanda x

It is insane cold here, and soo icy that only big stompy boots can be worn. I have to admit there is no fashion in my life right now, just layers of thermals and dodgy jumpers - oh with my Chanel bag of course ;-)
I love your wellies so cute! xx
