7 Staples To Get You Through The Rest Of Winter

We spend most of January and February hoping Spring will arrive soon. With the easter eggs already on the shelves and articles about SS18 trends in magazines,  you're easily fooled into thinking it's already arrived - but sadly that's just not true. But don't dwell on the fact that's it still winter, instead focus your energy on building the perfect wardrobe for these last months of cold with 7 fabulous staples.

THE BALLOON SLEEVE JUMPER | H&M

The comfiest of knitwear designs this season, this jumper is made for the days when you want to feel 'snuggled up' in your outfit. Wear it tucked into a pair of skinny jeans and layered with an oversized scarf for ultimate cosiness.

THE CROSS BODY BAG | Topshop

Loved by Fashion Editors for years, the cross body style is not only practical (*mum comment*) but uber chic. This bag is everywhere at the moment offering a variety of styles from minimal to heavily embroidered. 

THE CHECKED BLAZER | River Island

It's been a staple throughout Autumn and Winter so if a checked blazer isn't already part of your wardrobe, what have you been doing? This becomes such a versatile day-to-night piece by swapping your plain tee for a silk cami top.

THE GOLD HARDWARE JEWELLERY | Finery

Whether you're a silver or rose gold jewellery girl, put your preferences aside and fully embrace the industry's current love of gold jewellery. Thanks to brands like Missoma London, the jewellery options are endless and bold.

THE STRAIGHT LEG JEAN | Monki

Arguably the most relaxed style of denim available at the moment, the straight leg jean is perfect for any occasion this season. Make the most of light wash before a darker indigo colour palette of SS18 replaces it.

THE DOUBLE BREASTED COAT | Mango

The grown-up sister of the biker jacket, the double-breasted jacket is a lovely addition to your coat collection. Regardless of if you choose a cropped or thigh-grazing version, the style is timeless so you'll be able to wear season after season.

THE SOCK BOOT | Zara

This style of boot elevates any outfit with its minimal silhouette and luxe material. For the more confident of heel wearers, the thin stiletto heel is a must. However, for the more reserved the thicker, blocker heel is the way to go.
