Camel Shades

January is always a difficult month for styling. I'm always tempted to go out in a lighter jacket, lets face it we're all sick of wearing heavy jackets all winter. However as soon as I step outside I get a breezy reminder that its actually still winter and I am in denial about how cold it still it.

So it got me thinking what will freshen up my January wardrobe and still keep me warm. My answer is camel..not the animal..the colour. It's a light colour without being to 'summery' and can brighten up an outfit. Given I sell vintage clothing for a living it was easy for me to find a coat that was just right for me, A camel pure new wool cocoon coat.

I have lots more camel winter warmers available to shop HERE!! Above are my top 4. Teamed with light denim mom jeans, stripe tee, chunky ankle boots or relaxed runners and leather backpack. The perfect January warm but stylish day outfit.

Style Inspiration; Anya Ziourova

We don't normally do style inspiration posts but after reading this months Elle magazine we couldn't resist. Anya Ziourova was spotted wearing a sleeveless Celine trench coat and we must say it's got us wanting to cut off the arms of all our trench's in a bid to look or even feel as stylish as this lady.
