Blue
Here it is, the debut outfit post from my new road in North London! We were a little late in the month to catch the falling orange leaves (I was hoping they would match my nails, #BloggerProblems) but I was drawn outside by the bright sun and blue sky in what has become my winter uniform – a simple shirt, jumper and skirt combo. Usually this would be paired with a thick pair of black tights (I’m really appreciating Primark’s So Comfy tights at the mo..!) but I’m so fed up of wearing them every day that I thought I’d break that tradition for a blog post. Cue comment “you must have been freezing!”, well, I think it must be some sort of special skill thanks to years of non-trouser-wearing ’cause as long as I’m covered up on top, it’s all gravy.

When I titled this post Winter Brights, I wasn’t just talking about my white legs. I hardly ever wear bold colours, so this blue jumper from Baruckello (check them out, they have the cutest shirts!) came as a bit of a revelation. I think it looks brill with a bright orange nail and lipstick – even if I do say so myself. This outfit also features another of my faves – a little Vivienne Westwood teddy bear bracelet from Monnier Freres, isn’t he the cutest?
I’m going to try my best not to be wearing a shirt/jumper/skirt combo in my next post, but I can’t make any promises…judging by the weather over the past couple of days, the addition of a scarf, hat and those Primark tights might be in order! x

That skirt is Primark!? It looks brilliant and I love that shade of blue on you : )
It is indeed! I have it in a silvery colour too but haven’t managed to find the right thing to pair it with!
Beautiful. The jumper complements your eyes.
The jumper, it’s just so beautiful. Never have I seen a happier shade of blue.

I am a big fan of winter brights — in Vancouver the nonstop gray skies need some colour on the streets to balance it out!
Love these beautiful inspiring pictures! Great!
Great colors, love the red lips and nails with that blue sweater!

I tend to shy away from really bold colors too but incredibly they always look the best x__x It’s hard to tell if something that looks pretty will look good on you and vice versa…Anyway I love this color on you
Makes your eyes pop!

I love a jumper/shirt/skirt combo – it’s timeless. I’m very jealous of your new flat in north London. My boyfriend and I will be looking to make that move soon as we are just now a little to far north for our liking (AliPali area). Can you recommend any estate agents or good ways of finding a place? Or did you just stalk gumtree/rightmove until you spotted it. Any advice would be SUPER helpful
