It feels unique and fun, without losing any of that warmth (or comfort) that I refuse to compromise on!
I'm wearing my red leopard-print skirt again (see it styled in a different way HERE) because I'm struggling to see past it these days!
I picked it up when I was in a supermarket (shopping for mushroom ketchup, of all things) and I've worn it LOADS since.
It seems to go with everything (for me anyway) and today I'm wearing it with a teal polo-neck.
It's such a warm and comfortable outfit.
The contrast between the teal, tobacco and red is really pleasing to me.
A lovely colour combination, and one of my favourites.
I'm also wearing a big trend here in the UK... a teddy coat.
Although when I say "A big trend" this means they are all over the shops BUT I have honestly never seen anyone in real life (in my demographic) with a coat like this.
I've seen a couple of late teens/early 20s girls but no one anywhere near my age.
The majority of people over the age of 30 seem to be sporting a black longline puffa... the same as my dog-walking coat!
I've no idea why everyone loves black so much.
Winter is dark and miserable enough.
I always get excited when I spot someone wearing colour.
It goes well with jeans as well as dresses and skirts.
What's not to love?
{It's not so good in the rain but I can't spend my life in a boring waterproof can I?}
I've toned the look down a little by teaming the skirt with simple black tights and my trusty DMs.
Do you wear a lot of black in winter?
Why do you love it so much?
Do you prefer a blast of colour on a dark day?
What is your go-to shade?
I'd love to hear your thoughts!
