Top - Dorothy Perkins

Skirt - Dorothy Perkins

Fur Gilet - Dorothy Perkins

Boots - Debenhams

I didn't realise that my outfit was a walking advertisement for Dorothy Perkins until I started writing this post and realised almost my entire outfit was from there.  I feel like Dorothy Perkins is fairly underrated but I often see some nice pieces in there and I also find that they fit really well too.  I had hunted high and low for a ribbed polo neck that fit me on my shoulders, returning a few, but eventually found this one in Dorothy Perkins along with this lovely suede skirt which had been on my wishlist for a while.  I just love the look and feel of suede and am so happy it's stuck around for winter.  I also love to mix textures so decided to add this fur gilet which I got from there a few years ago.  Not only does it add some warmth to my outfit but I like how it also gives it a bit more of a boho feel.  

I've been adding to my winter wardrobe little by little this winter and have a few other outfits I'm looking forward to sharing with you but I haven't really felt like I've had time to blog as much as I'd like.  Don't get me wrong Christmas is hands down my favourite time of year but boy is it hectic!  I've been getting really stressed out which never helps my anxiety, so I decided to take the day today to relax, watch Christmas movies and wrap presents and I feel so much better for it.

What do you do to wind down at Christmas?
