Here are my tops tips! for cold weather
- Wool everything. I even used to have a lovely soft wool vest from a German department store, but it got moth. This year I got some lovely merino wool mix tights from Marks and Spencer. I'm still looking longingly at lovely ribbed Falke wool tights though.
- Uniqlo sale for lovely wool cardigans.
- Wear a slip. It stops draughty gaps when wearing a shirt and skirt.
- Avocado oil for horrible dry winter skin. I use it as a night cream. I have a marvellous bottle from a French supermarket which has the avocado smell added in (because avocado oil doesn't actually smell of avocadoes). I love it when things are artificially made more natural.
- Lots of thin layers is better than one or two thick ones.
- Wear a big scarf. If it's cold, it adds a useful extra layer, and it's more glamourous than a cardigan.
- Always wear enough hats and gloves and scarves to stay warm outside. Being avoidably cold is the most miserable thing in the world, and all you will think about while you are out is the lovely woolly hat you left at home.
- Boots, of course, for warm legs. And a pair of socks between the boots and the tights.
- Cycle to work. It's much nicer in the cold than in the heat, and it warms you up for the first hour of the day.
