Out-Style The Snow

Buses are running, trains are going places, schools are open... has the UK finally realised life goes on with or without snow?! Craziness...

In the meantime, we also have to find ways to a) still look semi-decent smothered in 150 layers, b) stay sane when the snow day is done and c) avoid eye contact with the inconspicuous white sky...

Luckily for us all can be achieved...and pretty much all from the comfort of our own homes:

A) Looking semi-decent and keeping warm!
It plunged to -8 degrees pre-snowfall which is alarming when you're sat at work in leggings and a jumper and not much else << Freezing Fashion Fail!
Changing tactics, today I've opted for Black Jeans from Next teamed with a White Shirt and Jumper from H&M. Not only am I much warmer, I'm rocking that layered look that's hot right now with celebs such as Elle MacPherson, Kim K and Demi Moore:



Footwear is of utmost importance is such severe weather, but that doesn't mean we have to be super boring and wear the classic green welly or a pair of panic-bought snow boots from somewhere random like Aldi... It is 2013 and sexy booties are bang on trend! Simmi Shoes have some amazing pairs of wellies and boots of all heights on their site at the moment...there are even some still left in the sale:




Final features to complete your look are welly socks, gloves and, of course, a faux fur hat! Who said keeping warm had to be dull and dreary?!

B&C) The work day is done...
The commute home was a nightmare with delays running as long as an hour so you had to walk most of the way. Your perfectly prepared outfit from this morning is drenched, your hat covered in ice and your new boots have rubbed your feet. Time for some seasonal maths...
