5. A statement jacket
No, jackets do not have to be black and boring! We ladies at BB like to have three jackets in our winter wardrobe: a super warm one for those freezing July days or that ski trip to New Zealand, a dressier option for night outs and an everyday staple that can also be worn inside - think velvet blazer or jean jacket.
Psst if you’re feeling uninspired and have no idea what to wear for your next trip to the grocery store, just throw on a pair of jeans, a black long sleeve top and wear a statement jacket - you’ll look stylish in a matter of seconds and no one will be any the wiser!
6. A wrap or poncho
So cold you don’t feel like getting out of bed? There’s literally nothing closer to being wrapped up in a warm doona than a cashmere wrap or wool poncho. Think of it as the acceptable way to bring your blanket to the office! Available in a variety of colours and materials to fit your fancy, a wrap or poncho can add some warmth to your summer dress and makes for a good layering piece when worn over a jumper and a maxi skirt.
7. A scarf
If you don’t feel like adding more clothes to your wardrobe but still want to freshen up your look, there’s no easier way to do so than to pick out a few scarves: a cosy cashmere scarf to wear with your favourite jacket, a leopard print scarf to wear over a black dress or top and make a statement, a feminine floral scarf to pair with a denim jacket and a colourful scarf to brighten your day and have you dreaming of summer.
Scarves are affordable and versatile. You can wear them loosely draped over your shoulders, wrapped around your neck, as an accessory on your favourite handbag, tied around a bun in your hair… who knew a simple piece of fabric could be that interesting!
