What I Wore #12

How long has it been since I last posted a fashion blog post? Let’s just say that I had other plans, but then a flu, work and the Holiday messed those up. That said, I decided to just keep on taking pictures of outfits and I ended up with 8 in total to share with you. And it is quite diverse: from dresses to jumpsuits and cozy knits to lumpy cardigans: I wore a number of outfits that I loved.

What I Wore #12 // 8 Outfits for the Winter Months

Sweater dress | H&M
Faux leather leggings | Only
Thigh high boots | Asos

Let’s start with an outfit that I had envisioned years ago but just hadn’t worn yet. I have had this sweater that is so oversized it is a dress on me for years and I never wore it. It doesn’t look right with jeans, and with leggings I feel practically naked. So enter the perfect pair of faux leather leggings and pairing them with a pair of black suede over the knee boots that simply round off the outfit perfectly for the colder weather.

Dress | H&M
Shoes | Vagabond
Tights | Primark

Presenting to you: my Christmas outfit. I have a few dresses that I love wearing for the Holidays and this burgundy velvet number is one of my favorites. If features a faux wrap style that I feel goes very well with the time of year. I love the color too and because of that I feel it doesn’t need anything more apart from a simple black bootie and tights. Because of the velvet texture this is quite warm and thick as well so a perfect winter dress, which I know people find difficult to pull off.

Jumpsuit | Pretty Little Thing
Shoes | Asos

You may remember this jumpsuit. I showcased it in a video last year as I bought it and then realized I wasn’t sure how to wear it. I tried several outfits and I had to agree with most of the comments on it that it looks best on me plain. But that put me in a bit of a conundrum as it is a quite lightweight material that is best worn on its own. So not great for most days in the winter time. But then the other day I had a dance party to go to and I figured that a jumpsuit would simply be perfect for it. I did change into my dancing shoes when I got there, but I feel these sock style boots from Asos worked really well with it.

Sweater | H&M
Corduroy pants | Monki
Shoes | Asos

Another super casual one. I put this on to run some errands on a random Saturday and liked it enough to feature it here. The pants are super highwaisted and extremely comfortable as a result. They are also a bit thicker and super soft so a great match for the colder weather. And this sweater as that is a bit more cropped and I struggled wearing it with most of my jeans, but it works so well with this.

Dress | H&M
Cardigan | Urban Outfitters
Shoes | Asos

I am well aware that H&M as a brand is featured heavily in my closet. It is not my intention but I generally get on very well with their stuff. This dress is one by the Swedish retailer that I have had for years. But it still fits and is very comfortable. I love the bright red shade and this is very much an OG outfit for me. I like pairing red with grey which is a bit unexpected, but I feel it works well. I did go with black tights and a pair of black boots for a bit of contrast. Not sure if you can see it, but the boots have a bit of texture to them.

Jumpsuit | Primark
Shoes | Asos

This next outfit is another one that I wore to a dance party. I love wearing jumpsuits to these things as they are much more practical to keeping your dignity than a dress. They still offer enough room for movement and are therefore much more comfortable. This floral number with a square neckline is one I hadn’t worn yet. Jumpsuits are a bit impractical for work as they are so difficult to take on and off when you use the restroom. But they look cool. So it if just for a few hours then I have no issues.

Sweater | H&M
Jeans | Everlane
Shoes | Asos

This is an outfit that I pretty much copy/ pasted from my fall haul. The only thing that is different are the shoes, because those leopard booties I have had for years and still love them. But the rest of the outfit is made up of newer purchases. The jeans are some of the best one I found in a long time and they come in this stunning mustard shade. Paired with a cream sweater I feel they really stand out and this is very much in line with the latest Instagram fads of pairing all neutrals together. Not something I thought would look nice on me, but I quite like the result.

Dress | Monki
Cardigan | Outfitters
Tights | Primark
Shoes | Vagabond

The last outfit I want to show you is another one of my dress with cardigan combos. I know not a lot of people like this kind of look, but I feel it works really well on me. The dress is a yellow polka dot number I found in the sales. It is quite oversized making it super comfortable. I threw the cardigan on on top and I felt it worked really well. Another quick, easy outfit that takes no effort to throw together. Yet it keeps you warm and is still work appropriate.
