Sequins.....

TIP...leggings are the easiet and most wearable way to incorporate the trend into your wardrobe great with a simple loose jumper or t-shirt or glam it up with a hairy coat the brogues give the look a contrsating mod approach

shoes by aldo http://www.aldoshoes.com

TIP...play with print and sequin tartan is great as it gives a more punk feel to the outfit but by adding a t-shirt and sequin collar the look becomes more feminine wear with glitter heels (minus the stickers on the sole!) but the heavy style of the shoe makes the glitter seem less girly its a key shoe style for winter

TIP...play down silver sequin shorts with knitwear both fabrics look great together play with print in the jumper or keep the knit plain but a metallic boot lifts the look and stops the outfit looking too casual

Country casuals.....

the day out: hunter lace up wellies are key to any country outfit the lace ups ones are a definite favourite and check shirts always come out for the weekend away collar done up and the grandad cardigan is the coat alternative and theirry lasry sunnies finish the look!
The chill out essentials: mens grey hoodie the ultimate comfort jumper and mens (gap) pyjama bottoms in a good colour can sometimes double as loose mens style trousers for day worn with tough heels makes them look laid back yet sexy (try it it works I did it for paris fashion week last season without the hoodie!)
the country walk essentials: velevet leggings (evil twin) adds a sense of dark glamour to your mundane walking outfit! a grandad cardigan is eesential in a bigger size to fit over jumpers like my mens one (zara) and hunter wellies for the added touch. the cape is the new coat so make sure you add to any outfit (urban outfitters)
Enjoy your next country escape!
