Wrap up with our winter warmers
As the days get shorter and the temperature drops, it’s time to start thinking about wrapping up warmer for winter.
And if you’re tired of drab greys and browns, brighten up your winter wardrobe with our selection of rainbow-hued pieces to keep you warm and dry.
Purple is a flattering
shade on most people and a great way to lift an all-black outfit. We love this
double breasted military style coat from high street favourite Marks &
Spencer, £79 (stockist: 0845 302 1234 marksandspencer.com)
Colour can seem
daunting to many of us but a scarf is a great way to dip a toe into brights. If
you’re not feeling brave enough to go for a colourful coat, this cobalt blue
scarf from Evans is subtle enough not to draw stares and will cheer up any
outfit. £10 (0845 121 4516 evans.co.uk)
If you decide to brave
the cold in a three-quarter sleeve coat, make sure your hands and lower arms stay
toasty in some lovely leather gloves. These contrasting green and purple gloves
from Accessorise evoke a touch of old school glamour with their gorgeous button
details. £22 (08448 11 00 68 accessorize.co.uk)
A polo neck is a great item to layer under dresses and short-sleeved tops – perfect if you want to extend the wearability of some of your more summery pieces. For those with a sunny disposition, this yellow one will work a treat. £25, Wallis (0845 121 4520 wallis.co.uk)
In cold weather it’s
important to keep your head warm and what better way than with this fun orange
trilby from J by Jasper Conran at Debenhams, £18 (08445 616 161)
If you’re worried that
wearing a hat will ruin your carefully coiffed hair, keep your ears warm with
these faux fur earmuffs from Dorothy Perkins, £12. (0845 121 4515)
British winters aren’t exactly known for
staying dry, so splash through puddles in these bright red wellies from cult
label Hunter. £60
