Fits like a glove!

Gloves are a fantastic way to accessorize a dull coat. Choose from fingerless, long, flip back and many materials. They vary in price from the super cheap supermarket fleecy ones to the exquisite leather and cashmere ones. Here's my pick of the top three gloves!

Super cute and totally practical, these purple pretties from Monsoon are a steal at £8 and are in the seasons hot colour. Also available in pink and other colours, they have a pretty diamante in the button which adds a bit of glam. Get them here at Monsoon.

For more of an investment glove, go for leather. They get better looking as they age and they are uber warm. If you think black leather gloves are the stereotype of an old dowdy granny, think again! These turquoise gloves are £18 from Monsoon again but do think of them as an investment, keep your hands warm whilst de-icing the car (something which cannot be done in woolly gloves!) Get your hands on them here!

If you have super cold hands that have a tendency to turn blue at a small drop in temperate, they're sure to be frozen cold in the winter! That's why you must get hold of these UGG Australia sheepskin fur lined gloves! Kinda eskimo-ey and a modern take on furry cave-woman mittens, these are sure to be toasty. Slightly pricier at $105 down from $140 but they'll last for generations and hey, it's UGG! Available at Bloomingdales here.

Cammy's scarf for £3 in the ASOS sale!

We all know that scarves are an easy way to accessorize and keep in the warmth but put off by the thought that all scarves are knitted by granny using up all her left-over wool? Times have moved on since the days of the unfashionable scarves only to be used on a winters day. Now you can get scarves to wear in all weather, in all patterns or colours and in many,many fabrics. Silk scarves glam up a LBD, cotton for a casual tee-shirt and wool (yes the woolly ones are still out there, but just as fashionable as any other scarf) to throw on with your tights, boots and wrap dress for a chilly day in the office.

Cameron Diaz is a scarf lover, and can look fab in whatever outfit she chooses and this one is no exception! Looking casual in her jeans and tee, the scarf adds tons of rockability to this outfit without looking too punky.


ASOS now have a virtually identical one here in the sale! I'm sure Cammy's cost more but this would hardly make a dent in anyones pocket! At £3 reduced from £10, this is a bargain not to be missed. Available in blue/black, pink/black and white/black, this is so funky and fashionable for the price, you may as well get all three! And may I add, I have a similar scarf to this and it has had many compliments already when I wore it. (more than similar, it is exactly the same as the white one but don't know if it was from ASOS as it was a gift). And any ideas on how to wear my scarf?
