Big, Bold Skirts

Leave a comment
I felt like doing a crossover outfit between warm and cosy but not quite getting ready for the slopes. Here is one of my new favourite picks; a Valentino pencil skirt with loud, bold naturistic print. It reminds me of a could-be Florida backdrop (so gets me in the mood for SS and what’s to come!). I’ve paired it with a bottle green, cable-knit, cosy sweater by Stella McCartney. I know this is promoting bank looting in order to afford these specific picks, but my collages are meant to inspire. No carbon copies allowed! Think outside the box. Get a old skirt from your wardrobe. If you don’t own one, root through an old charity shop or second hand thrift store. Ask a friend with a taste, ask your neighbours granny. Beg, borrow but don’t steal! When you have accomplished that, get an old fisherman cable knit jumper. Oversize all the way. If you are petite, wrap a nice skinny belt around your waist to accentuate how great your waistline it. Pair with your slickest heels or groovy neutral trainers if you’re a busy lady.

These two beauties are both ASOS. All under fifty quid. And wonderful examples how you can pair oversize plain tops with funky, fussy, loud prints. Keep the colors in the same family if at all possible. Don’t go overboard.
So there you have it. Make it a big, bold skirt-type of week ladies.

Happy Dressing!

It’s that time of year when everyone thinks they’ve caught the January Blues. Wake up; and get up people. It’s the perfect opportunity to hit the sales. Buy the trendiest, grooviest everyday outdoor jacket and a new pair of kicks. Pick a local favourite coffee shop and hit the pavement running.

I recently found a great new Costa in my neighbourhood and I’ve taken to going twice weekly before my late work shift. It’s an incentive to get out, exercise and get my caffeine kick, all whilst getting dressed up in my new active wear.

So there you have it. These are a few of my favourite picks. Think warm leggings, puffy oversize sports jackets, headphones and comfy shoes and get moving. I hope you enjoy this blog and its ideas. May it inspire you to get moving in style.
