When it's still winter in April

Every year in London people seem surprised by April's weather. I've lived here for 7 years now and I'm pretty sure it's always been utterly unpredictable. I've mentioned before that I'm a sun lover, and I'm looking forward to summer as much as anyone. I've been trying to wear summery clothes towards the end of April but yesterday's snow (yup, snow!) has pushed me back into the realms of black tights and wrapping up in layers.

I've been wearing this scarf from Camden Market on repeat all winter, and I've layered it over my old faithful black leather moto jacket from New Look. My dress is New Look too, the burgandy pattern bringing out the colours in my scarf.

I've added another wardrobe staple, my Collectif shrug for warmth and covered up with thick black tights and Asos ankle boots.

 I love mixing textures; here I've got leather, jersey, embroidery and faux fur.

My current handbag is this gorgeous olive Odilynch leather number, which I also picked up in my Camden Market haul back in January. Do you have 4 seasons in one day where you live? How do you dress for changeable weather?

Whowhatwear Day 6 - Wear the item you've been 'saving' for a special occasion

I bought these paisley embroidered shorts on a bit of a whim because the moment I saw them, I knew I had to have them! But they had sat in my wardrobe for ages, as I hadn't found an opportunity to wear them. So what better excuse than today's challenge! Since the pattern on these shorts is so beautiful I kept everything else basic and black, apart from this gorgeous embroidered scarf which was a gift from Hong Kong.
