Texture Play | Winter Styling

Oof, is there anything more exciting than getting your legs out?!  Seriously though, yes I was cold but I'd been trapped inside for days after constant snowfall.  I wake up, the sun was shining and the snow had started melting.  One thing led to another and before I knew it, the legs were out.  Don't worry, denial and optimism kept me warm.  Anyway, I've always been out here playing around with textures but even more so of late since so many gorgeous textured pieces have found their way into my wardrobe!  I've said it before and i'll say it again, I'm not a huge fan of this time of year.  Because of this, I'm constantly on the hunt for new ways to inject some colour and interest into daily life.  The quickest way?  In the way we dress.  Ladies, it's time to dive into a pool of textures...

Psst!  Take a peek at the other women's dresses available via Angeleye; so many chic yet affordable pieces!

One of my favourite textured pieces this season has been this vintage sheepskin jacket; ideal for throwing over pretty much any and every outfit.  The beauty of sheepskin?  It can look wrecked and still gain style points.  On the other end of the scale, a more recent find has been this snakeskin print tote.  I literally only bought it a month ago and yet I can't seem to find it online?  That's Zara for you.  But I'll be sure to come back here and link it should it suddenly appear for sale again!  It's the perfect size for both work and play alike; the perfect multitasker.  Speaking of which, this mini dress via Angeleye is the perfect answer to so many occasions and literally my dream tweed design (and we aaaall know how much I love tweed).  It's short, ruffled and with a fitted silhouette.  Need I say more?

So we all know of the textures we can bring into our wardrobes this season, but what about jewellery?  Don't overlook the opportunity to mix metals, add layers and switch up the norm.  These Karen Millen textured beauties were inspired by Egyptian treasures and go a long way in contributing to a textured look!  They're also available in gold and I'll admit, I'm tempted...

Have you added any textured pieces to your wardrobe lately?  Let me know in the comments below!
