Can I have some crème brûlée please? Merci.

On a cold winter day, there is nothing I like better than soft winter whites and neutrals. I was so pleased to see the colour Lil Prepster chose this week! Here is one of my favourite looks of all time -- chunky knit + chunky scarves. I'm not gonna lie, I have a soft spot for any sort of scarves so I knew just want to share with our readers.

This look can be achieved very simply and with any colour palette you like. Just find a chunky scarf and a sweater! I would definitely go for neutral on neutral though. And I would substitute the jeans with a (faux) leather mini skirt or even shorts to make it a little more fun.

What do you think?

PS. crème brûlée means burnt creme en français pour ceux qui le savaient pas :)

Winter White

This one is inspired by the piles of snow in my front yard.

Here's another pick from...you guessed it, J.Crew (I promise my entire wardrobe is not J.Crew...though I certainly wish it was).

I think everyone needs a simple white dress. You can dress it up or down easily and it's a whole lot more fresh than the little black dress.

Why this outfit works:

2 words - coordinated neutrals

You can see it in the detail. The beige accents the brown belt and the brown striping on the cardigan is genius.

Pairing the oxfords with the dress just adds more interest and personality into the outfit. I think that's what essentially makes this outfit what it is. A pair of pumps would have just been boring!

To make this more weather appropriate, I would pair this with nude or gray tights and add cognac knee high or mid length boots. And with a burberry nova check scarf, I'd be ready to face the winter winds.
