My sense of style is, I would say is pretty basic and I don’t like to overcomplicate things. Black skirt, fur vest, black knee high boots, DONE. All essentials that every lady needs in her closet. Although its pretty much freezing in London now, this is a great outfit to be worn under a coat, because the black knit top is warm but breathable, and the fur gilet is a great layering piece. This one is from Elizabeth and James, and I got it at Trilogy last winter, but there’s one here that’s pretty much exactly the same and super cute, and I LOVE this one from Alice and Olivia.

I’ve had these Christian Louboutin boots for a couple of years now, and while I feel like I should probably save them for special occasions, I am just so obsessed with them I basically wear them any time there’s a knee-high boot situation happening. I’ve also slowly added to my daily arm party, mainly because I’m having a love affair with Monica Vinader at the moment, so I’m adding anything onto my wrist that I can find in her store.

What are your go-to basics? Do they change when you’re in your hometown?
