Just back from London work is done and it is fab to be home with my boys, and it is London that has inspired most of my multi functioning outfits - i always take loads, wear loads and run out - which should be quite impossible - i am not a light traveller! but hey believe you me it happens - there is of course always one outfit - normally heavy in both thought and reality, made of many components that never gets worn but that really is a whole different post. And this is where i have learnt to multi task - this cardi, has been a dress, a cardi and even a scarf - i love a layer - and on that note have a very good weekend - nearly here xx
I often stick to really simple jewellery on my easy days, and i do love a delicate gold bracelet and necklace
This was one of the scarfs my man got me for xmas it is so fab as it ties in browns, blacks and beiges - i absolutely love it and it makes me feel very grown up - laughable i know - i dont know how in my head i am at least 20 years younger!
And here he is the lovely boy xx
Marni shearling lined gilet, proenza boots, stella cardi, bottega bag, lanvin scarf, borsolino hat
All pieces from previous seasons updated with a new scarf and hat
The lovely boy looks particularly lovely today. Adore his face to bits.
ReplyDeleteYou look so cosy and beautiful, love the outfit very much. Glad to hear London was good to you.
Have a great Friday and wonderful weekend!
Kisses and hugs to Frankie from me and pupster.

This is definitely your style, and look at your bottega veneta bag! I knew the brand even before reading it!! And claire, I have the sam problem: in my head I am 20 years younger!!
ReplyDeleteHaha Francesca - you made me laugh out loud - what is it????? xx
ReplyDeleteLove the scarf - your photos are delightful and happy! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteYou too LR x
DeleteYou might feel younger in your mind but you actually look younger evrytime I come to your blog I always love the way you style your looks, the hat is always such a nice touch! I love hats too! Nice weekend to you too. xx
ReplyDeleteAren't hats the best and thanks - i think it is the hat covering the wrinkles! xx
DeleteI really love that scarf. It's so pretty! Love the colors.

That's a great idea, my cardies are not quite long enough. But that looks great on you, looks toasty and chic on you
ReplyDeleteThe fur addition raids a lot to the overall silhouette. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteFun outfit and that scarf is loverly!
ReplyDeleteYou really have winter layered glamour down pat, I've been out in parka and Uggs this morning!
ReplyDeleteTabs if i lived in scotland i would be out in uggs and two parkas! x
DeleteI havent worn my fedora this year and perhaps I should, because I love looking how you're rocking yours. and let me tell you how much I adore your gilet, it's so amazing.
ReplyDeleteI love leyering and I'm absolutely faving your look.
♥
xoxo Ra
That gilet has been suuuuuch a good buy - live and die in it xx
DeleteClaire, you're such an inspiration! I spotted the Bottega bag from the first photo: how I love their woven works! Love your boots, I have a very similar pair, but different brand, and I've worn them the most this winter (well, until the snow made me reach for my ugly Uggs-I know, I have sworn not to put those on again, but nothing works for me in this weather).
ReplyDeleteYou are so right about accessories, Claire, they can update your look in no time. Every season I make sure to invest in a few good pieces.
Have a wonderful weekend! xo

These are so my walking boots - they literally have hundreds of london miles on the tread - 3rd winter and still going very strong - obviously i resole and heel at end of every winter - and yes it is all in the accessories - have a very good weekend too x
