My Winter Essentials

08:16

I'm not a big fan of Winter, at all. I love the thought of winter, but when it actually comes around I hate it! I'm not a fan of constantly shivering, slipping over on ice and getting ear ache from the wind. So for you fellow winter loathers here is my list of winter essentials to cope in the frost!


Candles
I'm a big sucker for a festive scented candle in winter. Can't beat the cinnamon and apple scent mmmmm. Lighting up a few candles in the evening can really light up the room and give a warm feel, which I need as much warmth as possible!



The Coat
One of the only things I do enjoy about the cold months is choosing my winter coat! I sometimes feel that a coat can ruin an outfit, so it takes me ages to find the perfect one. This year I've gone with the Camel Cocoon Coat from Missguided. I AM IN LOVE. I got this in the Black Friday sales which seems to have suddenly become a thing in the UK (not complaining!) and is one of my favourite purchases this year. I literally feel like a giant warm teddy bear. It's oversized shape is really flattering and looks great with my favourite scarf at the moment too(see below for more on that!)
The coat is still available online here: http://www.missguided.co.uk/catalog/product/view/id/125606/s/lena-cocoon-sleeve-coat-camel/

The Scarf
As seen in the photo above, another great investment I've made this month is this amaaaaazing tartan scarf from Primark for only £5! It's actually wide enough to wear as a dress if you so wished, or use as a picnic blanket lolz. It's literally THE warmest scarf ever and keeps that bitter wind at bay.

The Shoes
My favourite winter shoes are also my favourite summer shoes. The weather here in summer means you can wear trainers in summer. I bought these Vans Sk8-hi's in summer time and they have barely come off my feet since and I'm so glad I can wear them through to winter. They're soooooo warm and also have enough room spare for two pairs of socks haha. I lurrrrrve them. I bought these off Depop for £25 which is such a bargain. (If you have depop I have a ton of stuff for sale on mine, search "frunkkkawaii")

What are your winter essentials?
Keep warm, speak soon!
