Winter Weather


I was originally going to post about the search I'm currently on to find a perfect floral dress to take me through the upcoming Melbourne spring/summer, however the Melbourne weather at the moment is anything but the warm, fresh sunny weather you'd expect from Spring. The rain has got me reaching for my chunky knits and boots STAT!  With the rain set to stick around for the next week I've got to thinking about my upcoming trip to the U.S in December.. I've never travelled into a winter climate before and I'm nervous about just how cold NYC is in Dec/Jan. And packing for a winter climate is a whole other drama....  So I've decided to share my current winter weather lust haves... these will see you through the cold, rainy weather feeling warm and toasty... Just don't ask how I plan to pack them all into a suitcase!

A Classic Grey Beanie will match with any outfit - customise it by adding a lepoard print pom pom.

One can never have enough black- this jumper is handknitted and the boxy fit will ensure comfort as well as keep you warm. 



Louis Vuitton Monogram Shawl 
http://www.louisvuitton.com.au/front/#/eng_AU/Collections/Women/Accessories/Scarves-and-more/products/Monogram-Shawl-M7241The most beautiful shade of navy- I love navy in winter- A bit of a splurge but one you'll definitely keep forever. 

Black Josh Leather Over the Knee Boots 
http://www.tonybianco.com.au/categories/boots/josh.html#.UmYynyhQ0_sI love a flat over the knee leather boot- flat boots are so much more practical for during the day than a heeled boot. I always opt for an over the knee style as it elongates the leg. 

Leather Muubaa Phoenix Jacket
http://www.theoutnet.com/product/388416
I recently purchased this leather and shearling jacket by Muubaa- I'm absolutely in love with it. Made from the softest leather, the shearling lining keeps you warm without being too bulky. The shearling lining is actually a detachable gilet, leaving a fantastic leather biker style jacket wearable in the warmer months.  Two for the price of one! 

Please feel free to comment / ask me any questions!

Happy Shopping, Stay warm.
