Building on from my summer wardrobe essentials post last week, I wanted to talk winter capsule wardrobe essentials. Namely, because it’s winter, and this is what I’m actually wearing. As with last time, I shared a full run through of my essentials over on my YouTube channel along with a bunch of different outfit ideas. If you want to skip straight ahead to the outfits, they start 17 mins in. WINTER CAPSULE WARDROBE ESSENTIALS Oversized sweater | Kicking things off with the ultimate winter staple; knitwear.

The sun is shining, there’s barely a cloud in the sky. And, just ignoring the fact that it’s a sharp 17 deg winter’s day, I thought I’d share some cute summer dress outfit options for those of you in the northern hemisphere.

For this week’s wishlist, I thought I’d share some of my favourite picks from the YOOX sale, along with a few new pieces I’ve added to my wardrobe. Let’s run through my favourites first….
