Grey Days vs Grey Outfit

So in these grey dull days we keep saying you need to wear colour and aim to make our windows bright, but sometimes a bit of grey (or white and black) is needed. Today we have dressed a dummy to prove this point in lush designer items.

The mix of 2 shades of grey (no 50 shades of grey, here thank you very much!) with a tie-in colour of blue creates a simple but (we think) a non boring look.
The top is a high neck collar job from Valentino. The Italian fashion designer has many lines, and this is from the Valentino ready to wear collection.
This dark grey jumper is 100% cashmere as therefore super soft and warm. We have had to put up high on the dummy to stop the urge to rub it all over our faces!! Sooooo soft!
£40
Size 10 (eur 38) with loooong sleeves, perfect to keep you cosy.

The blue belt and blue necklace breaking up the grey are both from Zara. The leather belt is £7.50 and the necklace is £4.

Finally, the wool cashmere mix skirt is by Acne. The Acne Studios is part of the creative collective Acne (Ambition to Create Novel Expression) which was founded in Sweden.
The £68 skirt is in very good condition, but the lining has a small mark on it but it is not visible when worn. Again another small size 8/10 (eur 36/38), the slightly bell shape to it adds some oomph.

We suggest teaming it up with some dark grey knit tights and some long boots for that "So what if its winter, I am warm and look awesome" look.

Bye for now
