Hey everyone
Spring is here, well for some it is and for some technically here but no where in sight. In the UK the daffodils are blooming, the blossom trees are coming to life and the days are much longer, all signs of spring and to tell you honestly the days the sun is out it definitely feels like spring but the days it does not it seems like spring is nowhere in sight. Grey, rainy and windy not really make a good spring picture. But that is what spring in UK is and it is what it is!!!
The temperature in england in spring is between 5 and 18 degrees celsius in most parts so being practical with it here is a fashion checklist
1. Jeans and tights are a must, bare legs are only a dream.
2. Jackets and knitwear are a must, overcoats not so much.
3. Body warmers are very practical incase you do not want to wear a second layer on top.
4. Lighter pastel shades brighten up grey days.
5. Closed shoes preferably comfy booties that let you walk.
6. Dresses and skirts need tights/ leggings or my fav style, dress over jeans.
7. Layering is important so you can loose the layers just incase the sun god is kind.
8. A scarf is very handy.
9. Bring all the spring vibes by wearing florals.

After getting inspired by the street style during fashion weeks i tried to pull off the sweatshirt worn under jacket/ overcoat look and i have to say really happy with the result. Warmth while making a style statement, who says no to that. The boots although very statement are actually my comfiest pair and the denim because bare legs in cold and rainy is not a good idea and fringed obviously because i love updated denim!!!
I love my pink fur jacket perfect to brighten up any grey day from autumn to spring while making heads turn! Faux fur is not going anywhere till the end of this century, at least, so it can even be wise to buy it off season because you know you can use it year after year!!! And pink as i have said before is a very chic colour to wear now, so all thumbs up to this one.
What i wore- Faux fur jacket- Light in the box, Denim, Boots- river island, Sweatshirt
I wore this outfit on my trip to Cheltenham recently, as some of you must have seen on my instastories. It was grey, sometimes rainy but very windy as you can see from the pictures, my hair is everywhere but the fur looks so good being blown by the wind!! This layered outfit was perfect for a day of exploring the cotswold town. Travel guide to cotswold coming soon, stay tuned.
