I leave the house at 8am, it’s chilly. By lunch time the sun is shining and it’s pretty warm. When we get to the evening it’s feeling chilly again. Trying to work out what to wear in this weather could take a day in itself to decide! But I love this outfit. It’s perfect for the roller coaster temperature (as long as you have an umbrella nearby!).
Firstly the faux fur gilet from NEXT is my statement piece. It’s a gorgeous cloudy grey and feels SO soft. Honestly whenever I wear it I end up gently stroking myself (strange but true!) The texture is just unbelievably indulgent. Yes it is a gilet but believe me when I say this fluffy thing is warm! It’s lined as well which stops the faux fur sticking to you. I love it. I have to say thought, it’s really big! I know in the colder weather I’ll be wearing my black PU jacket underneath for a super stylish but snug look. If you don’t plan on doing some serious layering I’d say to size down.
The jeans are the Ridley busted jeans from ASOS curve. I love ripped jeans and it’s only been the last few months that they seem to be readily available in plus sizes. These ones in particular are high wasted (which is great) but I found them slightly too tight on my calf meaning the tear doesn’t quite sit on my knee. As they are super soft I thought they’d be fine, but they are just slightly too tight for my liking. I’ll be buying another pair for sure but I’ll either size up or grab the Ridley busted thigh and knee skinny jeans.
The black basic jersey top is from Simply Be. Purple point shoes are Dorothy Perkins and the silver statement necklace was a thrift find.
How would you style a faux fur gilet? On another note… this wall art is pretty cool right?
