Kate in taupe camel coat & grey suede tote
It has been an unfeasibly long Summer in the Southern hemisphere this year. At the risk of sounding like a curmudgeon I'm with the farmers - bring on the Winter! It's not so much the rain I like but brisk, cold days. Despite being part Polynesian, I veritably wilt in the heat & humidity, all the while trying to tame a excruciatingly frizzy barnet and blot the foundation havoc-wreaking sweat from my brow. I loved living in Sydney for 7 years, but the mugginess was relentless. I grew up in most Southern New Zealand with frosty mornings, long dusks and weekends in local snowy Queenstown. Give me a crackling open fire and a faux fur over sitting positioned between two fans trying to cool down!
Kate chic in grey, Winter 2012
What I love most about Winter is Winter fashion! This Winter I am obsessed with a grey palette and taupes. I'm also loving neutrals, from vanilla to mushroom and tea hues. Due to the conversely long Winter in the Northern hemisphere, I'm still enjoying watching celebs dress in Winter fashion in Europe, especially Kate, and Victoria Beckham & mini-me Harper. Here are some of my favourite celebs' Winter fashion looks.
