capsule wardrobe

Last week I shared my first easy to wear outfit for autumn (see blog here). Today see my second easy to wear cosy combo…

Todays uniform – a long jumper/cardigan, leggings and knee high boots What you need in your wardrobe –

Roll neck jumper
Longline cardigan (or jumper)
Leggings
Knee high boots

This look is all about proportion – a long cardigan or jumper teamed with leggings is a very flattering easy look to wear. A layered look keeps you warm too.

A cosy look for a chilly day, the roll neck jumper underneath creates a more elegant look but if the weather is milder replace it with a long sleeve t-shirt instead.

Knee high boots complete the look and always work great over leggings.

And for hair and make-up? For an outfit like this I like to keep it natural with brown and bronze eyeshadows, a brush of bronzer and neutral lipstick. I like to keep my thick wavy hair more natural in the winter and not straighten it too much so curls are the way to go for me!

Find uniform number 1 here. Look out for my next blog on creating easy to put together outfits this Autumn next week.

Cardigan : TU at Sainburys

Jumper : M&Co.

Autumn is here and its time to put away the pretty dresses, sandals and cute vests. So, what to wear now? Well I personally think autumn is the easiest season to dress for with 4 ‘uniforms’ that will get you dressed in no time. In todays blog I show one version how…

Todays uniform – 1) a roll neck, short skirt, tights and boots

What you need in your wardrobe –

Roll neck jumper
Short skirt
Opaque tights
Ankle boots

This look is a really simple look to put together. Choose a slim fitting roll neck jumper and tuck it into a short flared skirt. If you’d rather go longer with your skirt pick an A-line knee skirt which works just as well.

Add black opaque tights (I favour a 100 denier tight in the winter) and black ankle boots.

Keep it simple with no accessories and for the most flattering look keep your jumper and skirt tonal – i.e. both shades of brown as I have done here. If you fancy wearing a pattern wear it on your bottom half and keep your roll neck a plain coordinating colour.
