THE SNOW HAS ARRIVED! Every time it snows here I get so excited, this time it looks like it's here to stay for a little while. It makes everything look so much prettier doesn't it? Saying that though I suppose it does make getting dressed more difficult, especially as all I want to do is pile 10 jumpers on top of each other and wear the biggest coat I can get my hands on. Just in case you were wondering, yes, these photos were taken whilst it was snowing, and yes, I did end up freezing cold and a bit soggy. It was fun though!
Midi Skirts are something I feel I haven't worn for a while. It seems so difficult to pair them with a warm coat without ruining the silhouette. I wear them much more in the summer when I don't have to worry as much about keeping warm and tend to favour a shorter skirt in the winter, something which probably doesn't make so much sense as surely a midi skirt would be warmer? I got this one in Copenhagen last summer, and its one of my favourite skirts purely because of the gorgeous colour. 
I've been really into statement jewellery over the past few months. My go to place for jewellery is always Topshop, mainly because they always have that magical glittering sale rail. Both my earrings and my ring are from the said wondrous and seemingly constant jewellery sale, and together came to a total of about £6. I also got the ring in a deep purple, but it currently seems to either be hidden in my room or is somewhere between Denmark and England, as you can guarantee I will always lose or leave one thing behind on our trips to or from my hometown. Jewellery like this is just so handy! If I'm ever wearing something a little dull or plain, I know that I can just reach into my jewellery box and pull out a costume ring or a statement necklace and feel much more put together. 
Finally, lets talk about my incredibly inappropriate-for-the-snow but nonetheless lovely shoes. Again, these were another topshop bargain for just £15, which in my opinion is not too bad at all! I'm falling in love with pointed shoes but I can never seem to find flats in that style, so I couldn't believe my luck when I came across these. A love of shoes doesn't come naturally to me. I never really have been someone who focused much on them, and I usually will wear shoes until they are falling apart. This seems to be changing lately, and I've even started introducing myself to *gasp* heels. How very adventurous of me! 
I hope you are all well, and like the changes I've made to my blog! I'm feeling much more confident with the way it is now, but if you think anything could be improved in the layout and so on, do tell me!
