Burrrrrrrrrr, its freezing. We're rather chilly and have been all weekend; not helped by a bout of manflu in The Established Man offices. So as well as being plied with copious amounts of Vitamin C, Zinc, Echinacea and consuming enough lemon & ginger tea to make a new age follower start seeing citrus trees in their sleep we need to wear the right clothes. No segment of bare flesh must be touched by the bitterness that appears to have swept the British Isles. So it was time to binge out of cashmere this morning, gloves, hats, scarves, socks....you name it, we're wearing it today. Our icon is the humble Yettie
So it was off to Marc Jacobs for a some of the most reasonably priced designer cashmere seen, we loaded up on socks, hats and gloves there in a range of suitably wintery colours..think navy, burgundy, dark green. There was a splurge on a Navy cashmere zip-up hooded top but this is true cashmere heaven.
On the scarf front Burberry have a discount store way out East so we schlepped over there and bought an over sized plaid scarf...very on trend and as cosy as a country cottage. For sweaters our Lady underneath the Westway on Portabello Road every Friday supplies us with jumpers in all manner of states and colours for a tenner and the holes just add a rather dishevelled touch.
The item of lust has to be A.P.C's Union Suit.....a winning winter warmer.
