After having no warm clothes to brace last years winter wonderland blizzard which turned Hyde Park into an ice rink, I have decided, this year to plan ahead and invest in some winter warmers. This post is a warning to all Fresher's. IT ONLY GETS COLDER AFTER CHRISTMAS! There is something very satisfying about piling on more and more layers as the weather gets colder and colder. Big wooly knitted jumpers are vital, however, your winter wardrobe shopping spree shouldn't stop at fur lined coats. I am sure all students can agree with me when I say that the temperature inside your house is probably degrees colder than the temperature outside. For this reason, the scarves and gloves that you buy after reading this will probably be the most useful things you have purchased in the last year. My housemate Olivia spends her whole life in her leopard print fur coat and I personally can't get enough of my Dad's old knitted jumpers that I pulled out of the attic a few months ago. However, the moth eaten wool doesn't quite give off the stylish aura I wish for.
I want bright colours and interesting patterns.
So, I have decided to buy some winter accessories that will keep me snug both inside and outside whilst, at the same time, ensuring I still remain fashionable. Walking past the shop window of Accessorize the other day I was drawn in by the chunky, richly coloured scarves, fleece slippers and patterned ear muffs.
Becca Fairisle long pom pom gloves. £14
Crochet Lurex Flower Cut Off Gloves. £12
Cable Bobble Mauve Beanie. £16
Knitted Fairisle Ear Muffs. £12
Tapestry Regular Stripe Scarf. £16
Scalloped Lace Heart Vest. £12
Bi Colour Stripe Bed Socks. £12
And finall, my favourite:
DIAMANTE BALLERINA POLKA DOT SLIPPERS. £12
YOU'LL BE SO WARM AND SNUGGLY THAT YOU WILL NEVER WANT IT TO BE SUMMER AGAIN!
