My 10 must-haves for Winter

1. UGG Boots 
I love my UGG's to pieces, they are hard-wearing and super-cosy. The sheep fur makes them unbelievably warm. I have just recently bought my third pair as they last me a good 2 to 3 years worth of wear. They are expensive but the price is truly worth every penny for the quality of them. These are a definite recommendation for winter. You can purchase them from UGG stores, Selfridges, Office, Schuh and many more stores. Classic UGG's start from £130.

2. The Winter Coat
A coat is an absolute must have for Winter and I have found the most perfect white faux fur coat that will keep me nice and warm throughout Winter. Its soft and comfy to wear not to mention lightweight which is always a good thing. The make is Nümph and I purchased it from zalando.co.uk. It is a reasonable price of £90 with free delivery. Nümph also have some other very nice garments in their Main Fall 2013 collection, these are also available on zalando.co.uk.

3.  The Miracle Jeans
I love Topshop jeans and have just recently purchased their new design. These are high waisted super skinny jeans priced at £36. They are called 'Joni' and I would highly recommend them to everyone. The jeans come in a variety of colours and they are perfect for both winter and summer because they are lightweight, easy to wear jeans that are very comfy to move around in. I call these jeans 'the miracle jeans' because they make your legs look skinny and long and the fact that they are high waisted makes them suck your stomach in, so they target the perfect areas.

4. Scarfs and Snood
We all need that perfect scarf to match our winter coat. Buy your coat first then go shopping with it to see what scarfs go. Knitted scarfs and snoods for winter are always my favourite as they keep me warm when walking to school and back and when I'm out and about during the winter season. I have seen the softest snood from Topshop. Its called  Cobweb Snood and its at a reasonable price of £16 and comes in variety of colours and my favourite is the grey.

5. Knitted Jumpers
Blue and white/cream knitwear are a trend alert for AW13. Many of your high street stores will sell these jumpers. I purchased mine from Topshop and its a baby blue simple rib knit which keeps me warm throughout the day when I am at six form. The price was £38 and some of their similar jumpers are priced at £36. This jumpers really comfy to wear and all knitwear's are must-haves for winter!

6. Fluffy Socks
These winters warmers are my favourite winter accessory that I have worn for years throughout winter. Available at Joules for £7.95, are the cutest striped fluffy socks that I cannot wait to purchased for this winter.  They should also be available at high street stores such as Primark, Topshop, new look and many more. They are extremely affordable to buy. Fluffy socks are cosy and soft and keep your feet warm.

7. Skirts
Skater skirts are perfect for all year round, but when it comes to winter you need either a black, leather look or burgundy one. River Island sell  the black priced at £15, a dark red/burgundy colour at £15. Both skirts look thick so they should keep you warm. The leather look is from Miss Guided at the price of £18.99. All three skirts can be worm with warm thick black tights. These are great skirts to have winter. 


8. Thick Leggings 
Most people love to wear leggings throughout the year, but when it comes to winter they are too thin. Now I have tried wearing two pairs of leggings at once but I don't like this technique. This is why thick black leggings would be my personal recommendation for you to buy if you are like me. I have a pair from Topshop, these are priced at £18. They are nice and thick and you get your money's worth. They are slightly more expensive than your normal leggings but completely worth it. Other stores such as Primark and Miss Guided do sell these as well. 


9. Fur headbands
Last year faux fur heads were popular and I loved mine. They kept my ears lovely and warm and they were so soft. These are great for winter and because they are not hats, you get no hat hair which is always a positive. I got mine from the Clothes Show at the Birmingham NEC last year in december. They had an offer of two for £25. This was a reasonable price and I was then looking on amazon.co.uk and eBay because I could not find them anywhere, they are priced around £10 which is still an affordable amount to pay. I really would recommend them to you, as personally I love them so much, they are a great winter accessory to have.

10. Ankle Boots
Regular ankle boots look lovely in winter. I have purchased some from Topshop recently, these are called 'Arlene Western Side Zip Boots' in the colour taupe. They are a grey/brown colour and look good with pretty much anything I own. Priced at £62 they are quite expensive but worth it. You do need to wear them in first, but once you have they are comfy to wear and a winter must-have.
