Welcome to the gloomy, cobbled streets of Edinburgh!
The best part of coming back to the UK - other than the family reunion of course - is the prospect/reality of dressing cosy. Out come jeans, thick tights, jumpers and scarves. I am definitely a Winter wardrobe kind of person - I just look better with lots of clothes on :)
A highlight on Thursday was finally wearing my Office Nighthawk boots. You might remember me talking about them as I stalked the Office website for the re-release version of these Chloe knock-offs and was so excited to get them. For whatever reason I have been saving them for the right occasion - namely cold weather - so here they are. I know they are not everyone's cup of tea but I love the detail, the clump factor and the fact that I feel like a Bros-ette wearing them :)
They are now in the Office sale and £55 rather than the £80 I paid....of course they are....how annoying!
Leather jacket: Whistles (old)
Jumper: Brandy Melville
Jeans: Topshop - Link!
Boots: Office - Link!
Bag: Alexander Wang
Faux Fur collar: Topshop - Link!
PS. My face has been deliberately cropped out of the pictures. It was the day after an overnight flight and an office Christmas party...'nuff said.

I love those boots, Laura! It must be so nice to actually get to wear some layers and warmer clothes since you usually can't... or at least that's how I'd feel ;)

Those boots are awesome! I was looking at a similar pair in Macy's here in the US. However, it's just too crazy in stores right now and I'll have to wait until after the first of the year to shop in peace.

Those jeans may be the comfiest jeans alive. If there's one thing Topshop do well for the price that they're asking, it's the Jamie jeans!
ReplyDeleteMay have to treat myself to a fur collar too!

Are the office shoes actually comfy? I'm thinking of getting them but not too sure if they aren't too heavy in weight?
ReplyDeleteOooh would you say the boots are true to size? Ive seen the white ones but they are size 7 and im six, i wonder if theyll be massive?
