6 FIX | SALE STALK





1: Coat £99.99 Now £79.99 Mango / 2: Sunglasses £211 Now £126 Chloe /
 3: Sweater £9.99 Now £6.99 Mango /

5: Bag £385 Now £270 Clare V / 6: Trousers £245 Now £147 Max Mara   


--------------------


With the sales ripe for picking and without stepping too far away from the predilections of the darker hues in my wardrobe, in darkest winter I like to add a touch of lightness in cool silver and icy white. 

It still keeps me firmly placed within my comfort zone of a mostly monochrome spectrum, but adding a whiter shade of pale adds an almost magical quality to the dressing equation.

And so for now, shading on the pale grey's, plus some structure and slouch, is a winning combo every time.

6 FIX | SKIN DEEP





1: Sweater £24.99 H&M / 2: Sunglasses £17.99 Now £9.99 Mango /
3: Flare cropped jeans £25.99 Zara / 4: Cepheus Set £57 Aesop /
5: Dionysus suede bag £780 Gucci / 6: Boots £49.99 Mango


-----------------


With the onslaught of cooler temperatures, a quick cross examination of my wardrobe reveals some not so startling evidence.....Black on black, and a foray into fringe and snakeskin this season.

 Whilst embracing scales on boots can only be a good thing, the central heating and icy temps have caused my winter skin to become somewhat reptilian too. My weapon of choice.....Aesop's hydrating geranium leaf body products.

 And, with an 'investment' bag (fashion speak for costs a 'lotta' dollars) thrown into the mix, you could say I'm somewhat 'skinspired' right now.

AQUAZZURA OR DUPE | SPLURGE OR STEAL?


Back to Black


SPLURGE.....
 WILD THING SUEDE FRINGED SANDALS £490 


OR STEAL?

TASSEL FRONT BARELY THERE SANDALS £30


For party dressing I'm in favour of shelving the opaques and dipping my toes into something altogether more glam. These Aquazzura sandals have been buzzing around my head for a while......I blame too many close encounters on my Instagram feed, especially on the stunning Savina Chai

But, I'm all for exploring alternatives, particularly when my bank balance says otherwise, and this Missguided look-alike isn't a bad place to start.

For down time pairing, throw a faux fur coat over jeans and a chunky knit sweater. Or, for some chic after dark drama, conceal and reveal with a slip of a dress underneath......It's pretty much guaranteed to get you noticed.

 Whatever incarnation, it's the ultimate in laid back luxe, that's sure to keep you looking ultra cool and super cosy this winter.
