MONOCHROME WITH BLANKETS OF SNOW

but unfortunately not in the French Alps







 






 Jumper   Oasis
Shorts  Dorothy Perkins
Boots   Dune
Over the Knee socks   River Island
Headband  Topshop
Gloves  Accesorize

Okay okay I know I'm insane doing an outfit post in pillows of snow - especially without a coat - but I had so much fun. For a split moment when I looked in my shoe closet, I did wish I owned a pair of Hunter wellingtons, but these leather knee-high boots with over-the-knee socks suited the occasion just fine.

I appreciate the collar trend right now, and the great thing about this jumper is that the collar is detachable, so when  the collar trend turns sour, I can just, well, detach it - not that I'm an avid follow-fashion or anything!

Have you dared to take any pictures in the snow? If you have, direct me to your blog so I know I'm not the only crazy one round here......

Quick question: How old is too old to wear these shorts?

  10. whew! I steered clear of the snow, I hibernated in my house for a good 4 days straight to avoid the cold white devil! Your hat is super cute and I love the collar detail on your jumper.

  18. You're never too old to wear those shorts! You look great, I giggled at the photo with the caption :) I see you are a registered nutritionist, how cool. I always wanted to be a Dietician but finances stopped me from chasing this dream (damn you UK educational system and extortionate fees!) so I will be interested to read more about your work on your blog. I am now following :)
