Although the temperature continues to hover around 30 degrees each day, I can’t help but think (longingly!) of the cooler weather – and what I’d like to add to my wardrobe.
So what is on my winter fashion wishlist?
Black Knee High Leather Boots
On a practical note, my beloved black knee high boots are falling apart, so I’m looking for a replacement.
I’m fussy when it comes to boots. I don’t like the short ones that try to pass themselves off as knee high.
I don’t like a high or spiky heel – I want something comfortable that I can actually walk in. But at the same time I don’t like a flat heel because then it just looks like gum boots and there ain’t nothing stylish about that. So a low heel, that’s not too chunky.
Oh, and while we’re at it, I don’t want boots that cost an arm and a leg (because then what would I wear my boots on 😉 … ).
Shoulder Bags for Autumn/Winter
I’m also in need of a new handbag. Browsing the shops and online I’ve noticed a couple of things – fringing is big. And as I don’t want to change my handbag every day, a neutral in black, brown or nude is probably (excuse the pun) more my bag.
My Winter Fashion Wishlist 2016
Now for the wishlist – as in I don’t *need* any of these but hey, a girl can dream!
Keep in mind that I live in sunny Queensland where winters are short and mild … and add to that, the fact that I am a “certain age” and so don’t just feel the cold like I used to. My internal thermostat has definitely gone up since I had my op about four years ago! So no thick sweaters for me …
All of the items above are from Crossroads and Katies – click on the image and then hover over the piece you like for details – and I think they are perfect for a Queensland winter.
I can see a definite theme happening – looks like this winter I am leaning towards the burgundy, wine, berry, coral, rose and blush shades. All of these would look great with denim and black leggings (which is what I tend to live in, during winter). Hmmm I think I can feel a layby or two coming on … 😉 .
