As the parched landscape behind me shows we are going through unbelievably hot weather. Hence the skirt and skimpy top and sandals. Even in the shade is hot. the skirt is an old goodie and the top was purchased last year but the cropped trend is still strong.

When you need something fresh but neutral also, this combination seems perfect. I have added some silver because it wouldn’t be otherwise. But it’s always good to have something beige and pale grey in your summer wardrobe. Also, I have never worn these earrings since I have bought them. Every time I have put them on, something was ‘off’ about them, until I have figured out that they were too long for my face, so a bit of scissors action and now they fit just fine.

So I have dug up that old relic coat of mine that is very warm (wool+cashmere) slightly old fashioned cut but it’s way too good to get rid off and tried to keep everything in the same tone. The top is from Zara and looks very, Chanel-like plus grey trousers plus brogues, all in my books very relaxed and modern.

I remember last spring watching winter fashion shows and drooling over the wide leg, cuffed trousers. And what I have done was to put them on my wanted list and every time I have visited a charity shop I looked for them. As charity shops go, nothing comes specifically in your size or fits perfectly. Same with this pair, I had to do some alterations for them to fit, but the fabric is great and they flow beautifully. For them not to look very office-like, I’m wearing them with a fun jumper and very nouveau riche jacket.

Of course, when you buy something you intend to wear it a lot, but I have to say I did not think this grey jacket that I’m wearing will be worn all through the winter but as the temperature remain mild I reach for it more. The length is good for my figure and the colour is neutral. This time I’m wearing it with a jumper I have bought in the kid’s section because I have wanted it to stop in my waist and new but bought in the sale flared jeans. This is called half-flare and this might be the style to go for as they seem very wearable to me. And to match a pale grey scarf and grey, heeled boots.

Another casual outfit for a rainy, cold day. Puffer jackets are everywhere and not surprising because they are very warm, combined with a cashmere jumper they will keep you extra cosy. Add to it a scarf this time matching the colour of the trousers and some waterproof boots. Everything in cool, subdued colours.

I have got this jacket when it was still hot outside. It looks cute, but warm it is not. Fortunately, the weather is not too cold. All grey outfit with a mustard-yellow bag because why not!

I can see how this coat is going to be my new obsession. I intend to wear it in as many combinations as I can think of. In pictures, it comes out more red but actually it’s more burgundy and I love the burgundy and light blue combination

I think when trying to wear a mini dress with leggings but not to look too old fashioned is to wear it with shiny leggings. this pair I got of e-bay and it cost me around £5. Together with leather booties, it has a very modern, tough look. The belt is from patent leather and the coat is a wrap-up type.

I like black and navy blue together, and this outfit is proof. I also do not like getting rid of clothes, so if something doesn’t fit I will make it fit. The trousers started off being rather plain and also cutting off my circulation but after a busy afternoon, they acquired side-stripes and a better fit.
