Being this age is great. Everything is a celebration. We are constantly celebrating lasts and first which means that there are parties all the time! Okay I am over exaggerating I am a bit of dork so I am not at parties all the time but I am attending substantially more than I ever have before which means that I get to dress up. Unfortunately and fortunately it is winter at the moment. This sucks because sometimes a beautiful outfit looks really rubbish with a jersey but otherwise winter fashion is fun and suits my style quite well so I enjoy it. I went to a recent 18th, it was a dinner (not too formal but not too casual) so I dressed in a-skirt-and-stockings look (one of my favourite combinations of winter). I don’t like wearing too much black so I grabbed an olive-green skirt instead of a black one although I think black would go just as well. I had to add my splash of colour with the scarf which tied the beanie into the outfit. Beanies and Scarves… what would winter fashion be without them.
I finished off the whole look with a short black coat. This, I have to admit, is my sister’s but I often borrow it. I think that having a good coat especially a black one is as key to having a nice winter wardrobe as the little black dress is key to style as a whole. This one is not so long but not so short that it should be called a jacket and it went well with the skirt and stockings.
Over all I felt warm and I think it turned out looking quite well. What do you think?
