Quite warm, but think not stylish just v boringly dressed in new H&M slim fit - not skinny - patterned (not spots more like faded diamond shapes) jeans that must be cropped/ankle on normal height people but they fit me perfectly.
Vest (normal cotton)
Jade green 3/4 sleeve top
Black cardigan (cotton too)
Blue socks and blue flats which I will change when I go out either office maroon suede block heel or sensible dog walking merrell ankle boots, the latter are incredibly warm, but not lined.

The heating is off, the sun is shining. You all need to do something vigorous.

Red merino thermal long sleeved top
Thermal leggings
Brown thermal tights over leggings
Forest green Me & Em cap sleeved dress
Neck sock thing (like a tight snood)
Teal Chan Luu scarf
Toast felted biker
Cashmere wrist warmers

I am nice and warm, but then I am wearing thermals, two scarves and a coat, which seems slightly ridiculous for April.

ujjayi I can't link to it because Uniqlo don't seem to have any cashmere in at moment. It's just one of their standard women's v necks that I bought in a bigger size so it slouched. There's a light grey one on eBay atm - it's the one I've got but in a lighter grey. Size M, which is slouchy on me (I'm a 6-8.)

Can't comment on Woolovers quality until I've washed the sweaters I have, but they are gorgeously soft and super cosy, really impressed so far especially given price. Never buying high st acrylic crap again.

i was wearing boyfriend jeans rolled up, nude hitops, blush vest and sheer white top with (another becksondergaard! love them) blush/black star scarf and a khaki diesel jacket. BIG MISTAKE.

ended up coming home to change into skinny indigo jeans, coral vest and grey cashmere sweater with choc brown uggs and massive padded barbour. kept the star scarf though Wink

morning = freezing. afternoon = toasty warm.
