Leather and Wool

My wardrobe has turned decidedly monochrome in the last few months. I am not sure whether it is the dull weather or my tastes are changing, but everything I pick up in the shops is either black, grey or cream. I am beginning to see the benefits of a capsule wardrobe and I am starting to spend my money much more wisely. When I was younger I could buy a whole new outfit every weekend then never wear it again. However, my more mature self hardly buys clothes anymore and I am focusing my efforts on building a collection of classic, staple pieces which will last me a long time, rather than buying masses of tops and dresses which I will only wear a handful of times. Therefore, I recently got this lovely Cos jumper which I have been wearing all the time, with everything. It can be dressed down with jeans and trainers or I can wear it to work with a funky skirt and heeled boots- the perfect classic jumper! I am currently on the hunt for my next purchase- the perfect pair of smart work trousers... I am getting old!
