Winter Style: Pinafore Dresses, Cosy Knits & Collars

 

 

 

Pinafore dresses are experiencing somewhat of a revival this Autumn/Winter. Save some cash and treat an old sleeveless dress like a pinafore. Put a snug jumper underneath it and voilà, a completely new outfit! A skater dress would be perfect for this. A detachable collar is the ultimate accessory to smarten up your new pinafore.

Autumn Style: Prints, Knitwear & The Boyfriend Coat

 

 

First there was the boyfriend blazer and now there’s the boyfriend coat. Structured, woollen and slightly too wide; like you stole it from your boyfriend’s wardrobe. This is a recent buy and I adore it. You could continue with the androgynous look and wear this coat with skinny jeans and brogues. The skirt is a summer purchase but I think the strong colours and print make it suitable for any season.

 

Olivia Palermo recently vamped up a knitted jumper by pinning two bejewelled brooches onto the neckline. This is a wonderful way to give a tired jumper (like mine!) a new lease of life.
