The London Grey

 

Something about grey.....I had never been a fan of the colour...and as a result never felt the desire to wear it. It just reminds me of those miserable grey days we have here in London. It's a depressing feeling when you look up at the sky and see nothing but a blanket of grey. Along with the grey concrete pavements and buildings, too much grey can be.......dull. 

Which is why when it comes to clothes, I always prefer bright colourful pieces-even in winter! bubblegum pink, turquoise..even canary yellow!....why wait for Spring/Summer to inject colour into your wardrobe? If you ask me, we (well I do anyway) need those bright pops of colour to brighten up those miserable days. And I always appreciate seeing someone wearing a pop of colour on those dark winter days.

But back to the grey.....I must say that it is actually a nice colour to wear, and can instantly change the look of your typical everyday outfit. It looks good dressed up as well as down, and I find that it is easy to wear both gold and silver jewellery with! I even managed to add a touch of rose gold in the form of my bangle from Primark which I absolutely Love! It's not easy for me to find an item with which I can confidently wear three shades of metal-and have them all work equally as good as each other....so that is a big plus for grey! Speaking of silver............

I am OBSESSESD with these dark silver boots I found in New Look a few months ago, they are literally amazing! They have so much sparkle....it's impossible to capture just how sparkly they are, especially at night!....they actually remove the need of wearing a high visibility jacket when crossing the London roads....you could see me coming for miles! lol

If you didn't know this already, I am also obsessed with studs...on anything! so when I found this jumper on sale in H&M, it was a no brainer....Although I am not a fan of garments made from 100% acrylic, this one is an exception as it is very thick, warm and doesn't produce very obvious bobbles.
