New Year - New Wardrobe?

I'm having ones of those days where i want to buy a whole new wardrobe. Alas I can't buy one. So, next best thing is spending wisely on a few statement accessories to liven up old or plain outfits. I'm a sucker for prints but I also think there's a understanted elegance with a really plain/one block colour outfit festooned with splashes of sparkle or texture. Remember, less is more - don't be afraid to go big but you only need one, perhaps two statement pieces per outfit - if you start resembling Barbara Cartland at a costume party...stop and remove!

All wrapped up and only one way to go...

The weather girl told me this morning that it was going to be a high (a HIGH) of 4 degrees this week. WHAT. If i wasn't a greedy pig i would have thrown my porridge at the tv screen.  Living in the North of England has it's benefits, but Jesus i regularly wish i lived elsewhere. We live on the beach which is marvellous. Marvellous in the Summer but equally fab on a freezing day like today when you can get all wrapped up and go for a stroll on the sand.

It can be difficult to feel particularly feminine though when you're covered head to toe: uggs, jeans, jumper, down jacket, hat scarf and gloves. What I need on a day like today is subtle accessories to just glean through the layers...
