The ensemble I pretty much live in during winter is formed of shirt, cosy sweater and a good coat, usually completed by a pair of jeans, whether straight or skinny, and always fur-lined ankle booties or long boots. It keeps me warm, without the risk of appearing too casual, which is a great thing, as I’m not one of those who sacrifices comfort for the sake of the overall look on a cold day. And yes, it seems I’ve been in a grey-phase all season.
If you were wondering, I did watch the Golden Globes, and I did get the chance to see a few more of the nominated films over the weekend, and I will share my opinions on the winners (and the styles) one of these days. Have a wonderful week!

i adore a cosy grey sweater. the softer and lighter the better. such a staple.
as you know i did watch the GG globes too, and i agree it was pretty uninspired overall, there were some cute moments, and i feel that the range of movies nominated & awards given was good (sometimes it feels so contrived). and when i saw cate i thought, oooo, i bet ada loves her look, and her win 😉
I’ll keep most of my opinions for an up-coming post on my highlights of the night, but, yes, as I was mentioning, I thought the majority of the speeches were so boring and uninspired and so many winners so unprepared for an acceptance speech that I thought I was watching the same thing on repeat. I also have to say that as much as I loved to see Cate win for Blue Jasmine, I hated to see Emma Thompson lose – she was extraordinary in Saving Mr. Banks. I wish they both could have won.
As I went shopping this weekend, I saw a very similar sweater as the one in the large photo (it also had elbow patches) but then of course when I looked at the label it was mainly acrylic. No way I was buying that! I love all the grey sweaters you’re linking to, especially that V-neck cashmere.
Today I saw a Globes clip with a pretty funny Clooney/Gravity joke and I think that will be the only thing I watch until the Oscars. I haven’t looked at a single red carpet photo. I somehow get the feeling I didn’t miss anything.
I am in a perpetual grey phase- which is probably why this eternal summer has been good for me (forces me to purchase more colors!)
I love your winter uniform. I wish I could pull on a pair of long boots and a beautiful coat right now!
