I love wearing all things white and even managed to get my whole family into the “white” look so it feels so right that I start the new season with an edit on everything white.
And ladies, there are a few benefits to wearing white not least its ability to make you look younger and thinner!
The right shade of white for your skintone can really lift your look through the colder months and help you to stand out with a fresh and confident look. If you’re thinking I look too pale to rock white through the winter don‘t worry, I will be giving you lots of make-up and skincare tips over the coming weeks to help keep your skin looking glowy and dewy.
It’s easy to opt for darker colours but please don’t believe that dark colours must be the default look. As Coco Chanel said “white has it all”.
There are some AMAZING pieces out there and I’ve cherry picked the best for you.

I’ve snapped up this super cool longline quilted gilet. It’s the perfect layer over a dress, with a pair of jeans or leggings with chunky trainers. I love this! It’s a must have for me.

Slip style skirts are everywhere and this one from the sister duo brand is selling out fast. Layer this skirt with different tones of white – it can be dressed up or down with a gorgeous soft fabric jumper. A must-have addition to your winter wardrobe.

Knit dresses are big this winter. This gorgeous crossover sleeveless maxi knit would be a fresh addition to your wardrobe. Layer a long white cardigan over the top with your fave trainers, chunky boots or loafers and you’ll look like you’ve come off the catwalk.
Zara
Co-ord knits were big on the catwalk and this for the price is a fab one from Zara. This is a high waist skirt that flares past the knee. If you’re petite best to team with heels.

Capes are “in” this AW in a big way and Zara has been quick off the mark. Layer over your fave pair of jeans for a perfect relaxed vibe. This cape will work with so many different looks. Rock this however you like!

How gorgeous is this model?!!! I think we all know that having a few white basic tops in our wardrobe is essential. This is a basic you need to have.

I have to say the knitwear from Mango is always good quality at a great price. This cream turtleneck in a midi length will result in a cool fresh autumn look.

As you can see, these days knitwear need not be boring. The bonus of a co-ord is that you can mix and match to make several different looks and this is my current favourite. The top is £35.99.

Faux leather is still huge. This is a bargain skirt in a classy pencil style. Pair with chunky jumper or skin tight top. Whatever takes your fancy?
