There are some fashion rules that were meant to broken, and no white in winter is one of them. It might seem instinctive to reach for an all-black look for your cute winter outfit but I find an all-white look to be so much more impactful, while still being so simple to create. It still surprises me how a lot of my friends still ask me “Is it really okay to wear all white in the winter? Isn’t that just a summer thing?” Yes, it’s okay to look incredible in an all-white outfit this season because I’m about to show you how to wear white in the winter. No, it isn’t just a summer thing.

Now I’m not sure if we reach for an all black outfit in the winter because it reflects our feelings about the grim weather, or because it attracts more heat, but you can still be cosy and warm in white. An oversized knit in a fluffy material, or even a beautiful cable knit is the perfect place to start. I couldn’t resist wearing this beautiful Ba&sh jumper with the knotted back detail (Yes it’s totally this Sincerely Jules sweater! I bought it way back in the summer and have been waiting to wear it since!) I paired it with a pair of white high waisted trousers (Pro tip: Wear a pair of Uniqlo heat tech leggings underneath for an extra dose of warmth).

A great way to make all white work for you is with your accessories. I added in this shearling hat as the perfect winter outfit touch. Weaving in winter materials helps to keep your outfit in season. I’ve clearly grown to the idea of socks and heels as I thought it was the best way to wear my favourite heels while still staying warm!

So is this a rule you like to break in the winter? How do you wear all white? Comment below with your fashion story!

We’ve all had those mornings when we haven’t decided what to wear to work, we’re running late and we suddenly stare at our closet full of clothes and think, “I have nothing to wear” (note the Sex and the City reference? I’m almost done with all the seasons!) With autumn very much here and winter hinting that it’s closer than we think (it’s something like 70 odd days to Christmas?) trying to figure out office outfit ideas only gets more and more challenging. Recently, a lot of my girlfriends have been mentioning how much harder it is to decide on a cute workwear outfit when it’s cold outside. That’s why today I’m going to be sharing a quick and chic outfit formula that you can always fall back on, no matter the morning.

When I’m in doubt, I always reach for a combination that is tried and tested; high waisted trousers and a chic sweater. This combination might sound simple but it’s an outfit that just keeps giving. What I love the most about this formula is that you can repeat it almost every day and it will still look different. On one day you can go for a totally tonal look like I have here with beige and white (or any two colours, depending on the colour of your trousers). On another day, you could mix your high waisted trousers with a fitted turtleneck, and on another day you could throw in a burst of colour with a patterned sweater or oversized knit. Do you catch my drift?

It always helps to have an outfit to fall back on, almost like a uniform that you know you will always look chic in but don’t forget about your accessories! Although for work you may want to swap out this bag for a more subtle one and ditch the beret, you can still add in some dainty necklaces and some gold earrings. Don’t be afraid to add a touch of personality and shine to your look. I guarantee you’ll be the most stylish woman in the office!

Is this an outfit formula you could fall back on for work? Where do you look for work outfit ideas?
