The Winter Gilet

(Gilet – Exact, Jumper – Similar, Jeans – Exact, Shoes – Exact)

I wore this outfit last week when I went to get my hair cut. I remember wearing gilets in the 90’s when I was growing up and I thought I would never want to wear one again, however I saw this one at Topshop and fell in love with it! I think it’s really versatile as it’s black, but it has those extra elements like the faux fur collar and winter print at the top. Plus, it’s incredibly warm!

I’m wearing my Merlot Koral Los Angeles jeans and a white jumper, winter gilet and velvet hidden heel trainers, all from Topshop.

I can tell that I am going to be wearing this gilet a lot actually as I crave the extra warmth. When I am out and about I do favour the more casual looks like this, so I think it will work well in outfits to come. I also wanted to wish my American readers a Happy Thanksgiving for tomorrow! I hope you all have a lovely day with your families! What do you think of the outfit?
