And another season of layering is upon us. Layering for warmth provides a great opportunity to play around with different patterns and textures. Take this outfit for example. I kept the colour scheme pretty neutral staying in a grey and white colour palette. Although in its simplicity was quite the mix of textures.

However, I compromised by wearing over the knee boots instead of booties, and purposely chose a white lace skirt to play up on the fresh snowfall. And yes, I clashed red plaids on purpose.

Happy Friday the 13th!! Wishing you a lovely weekend ahead! xo
