Welcome to the first Style Not Age challenge of the year! We are now a group of four since Gail decided to leave. Gail is still blogging though so you can stay up to date with what she’s doing. Anna chose “Winter Woolies” for our January prompt. (The title made me giggle because my married name is Woolley!) As you might expect for this time of year, I’m in jumpers and cardigans every day lately. Of course, I have my old ones that I wear around the house when I’m just pottering/doing housework. Then I have my nicer ones that I wear for work and going out (although that doesn’t happen very often!).

This cardigan works all year round thanks to its summery strawberry motif…

Cardigans are great substitutes for jackets when you want a more relaxed look. This cardigan works all year round, thanks to its summery strawberry motif, so it’s not just a winter woolly! I bought it on Vinted last year and absolutely love it. I’m convinced it’s hand knitted as it doesn’t have a label. I featured it on the blog back in May with a T-shirt and joggers. To adapt it for the colder weather I’ve layered it over a long sleeve high neck top. It’s soft and loose-fitting but not bulky, so I could easily fit a coat on top. The barrel leg jeans are making their second appearance. After hesitating to jump on the trend for so long I’m now converted! I wanted to mix up the pink and red tones so I finished the outfit with a hot pink quilted bag and chunky Converse.
