Walking In A Winter Wonderland

I'm sure you're well and truly aware, but winter has certainly arrived here in the UK! A blessing and curse all at once, it seems as though us in the Midlands and those in Wales have gotten the brunt of the snow this time around. There's so much to love about the snow, yet I despise it all at the same time.

I love how Christmassy the snow makes me feel, especially in the run-up to the special day; I love seeing how happy all the kids are, knowing that they're able to spend the day sledding and making snowmen, and the fashion; I love being able to pull out my chunkiest scarves, oversized coats and wooly hats; I absolutely love it all!

But at the same time I'm absolutely terrified; terrified of slipping on the ice, as well as driving on it too! I'm sure many countries who receive feet upon feet of the stuff are probably laughing at how us Brits handle the situation - cancelling schools, having days of work, public transport grinds to a near halt etc. but in retrospect we're just not used to this weather here. I don't know what it's like where you live, but 90% of the time when in snows in my town, it just doesn't stick that much, and if it does it's simply a light coating, not the 4-5 inches we received in a few hours yesterday. Plus what's the point in purchasing snow tyres to use once every few years when the snow decides to stick?

The Christmas Jumper | Rudolph Jumper From George At ASDA

Until recently, or should I say last year, I'd never owned a Christmas jumper. I know, disgraceful! But since my first jumper purchase, all I've wanted is more! There are so many cute styles on offer now (check out my Christmas jumper post here), but I've really been holding off purchasing another one as I can really only wear it for one month of a year. With that said, it probably wouldn't be odd to see me in a Christmas jumper in May...

The (Not So) Ugly Christmas Jumpers You Need

Forever 21 Fair Isle Christmas Jumper (£19) | Simply Be Christmas Santa Jumper (£10) | Missy Empire Red Bambi Knitted Christmas Jumper (£20) | Forever 21 Chill Snowman Christmas Jumper (£20) | WearAll Knitted Fair Isle Christmas Jumper (£21) | Forever 21 #Elfie Graphic Chirstmas Jumper (£19)

Along with Christmas comes Christmas fashion. Those ugly Christmas jumpers are my number one fashion essentials as this festive season kicks into gear. If you're however still on the lookout for one, then fear not, because Lizzie has you sorted! After scouring the web for some time in search for some awesome Christmas jumpers (they're totally not ugly, let's be honest), I picked out a few favourites that will help to get you into that festive spirit before the big day rolls around!

Goodbye Summer | OOTD

Now that it's officially Autumn (boohoo), it's now time to start pulling out those warmer clothes. I seemed to blink and summer went by...that's how fast it was for me. And although Autumn and Winter are my least favourite seasons in term of weather, I absolutely love Autumn fashion - there's just something special to me about colours like khaki and maroon, and now I can finally pull them out on a daily basis.

So as it's the start of September I decided to wrap up in a chunky jumper and give you an insight into my first Autumn outfit!

Classic Winter Style / The 12 Days of Blogmas #8

I'm afraid that today is yet another outfit post. I'm aware that I posted one only two days ago, but yesterday I went out to celebrate my nan's birthday, and although my outfit was relatively simple, I thought it was super cute and needed to be blogged about. So here it is!

It's A Fur Thing / The 12 Days of Blogmas #6

 

I can't quite believe I'm halfway through my 12 Days of Blogmas, meaning it's only a week until Christmas...WHAT?! This year in my opinion has just flown by. Anyone else agree? Anyway, getting on to the point of this post; today I decided to show you one of my favourite outfits that I'm wearing consistently during this colder weather. I've definitely been loving some more classic and simple outfits recently, and I think this particular one reflects my personal style right now perfectly!
