Another cold dreary day today, though for the first time in ages I have absolutley no intention in leaving the house which means I can get away with slightly fewer layers. Grey seemed the most appropriate colour choice for such a dull day, apparently we have yet more snow on its way tonight and tomorrow.
Watch details
This outfit came about after seeings lots of jumpers with a ruffled hem, making it look like a sweater worn over a dress. Not willing to spend money on such a thing, I had a go at improvising. I think the skirt needs to be shorter, or perhaps the jumper longer...any shorter on the skirt length and it'd be indecent I fear.
Have a fab week,
stay warm and safe! xxx

What a prettiful skirt! And awesome tights, Ms. Queen of Tights! You know, I love your collection :)
p.s. AWESOME mug too!! Leo print, right? :)
Oh, nice outfit! :-)
There's nothing better than an oversized jumper dress in the cold weather. I like the addition of the skirt and agree that you'd have to be careful how short you made it!

You make grey interesting, dearie! There's something about monotonous outfits that I really like. Hope you're doing well!

Ooh Laura I love how you paired these two together! I've seen a lot of those frilled sweaters too and always liked them :)
Have a great week!
youve never heard of nivea essential enriched?
google it
you must buy it.
its sooo worth it. it makes you feel all smooth and moisturized. which is the whole point of lotion. if you dont have it over there across the Atlantic i am serious about shipping some to you. THATS how serious i am. hahaha
what a cool watch! I love the color grey and it looks so good on you!
You look darling! Every girl needs some ruffles in her life! Grey is such a warm color! Love this on you!

i love grey tights and i love long sweaters, so together they are great!!
I adore long sweaters - and this one looks absolutely marvelous on you! You look gorgeous in everything you wear, Laura!! :)
Love your improvisation of the jumper/dress thing. Looks cute on you. We are supposed to be getting more snow soon too!! Blah! Not looking forward to it really, although it is pretty
i love how your doll yourself around the house...i should do this more often rather stay in pjs.
i love the outfit...as always you have great style!
I love that skirt!
I love the ruffled skirt peeking out of the gray sweater! Such a great laidback outfit!

I love this outfit combination, so chic. I always improvise in this way too, separates are far more versatile and you can always mix and match. Grey is one of my favourite colours too.
Love the gray sweater with the ruffle skirt pairing, you look amazing chic and comfy!!!
You must be really looking forward to spring right now!
I love the jumper paired with the skirt, the ruffles peeking out is adorable:)
xx
I think it works really well! I'll definitely be trying this come winter. your skirt is really cute =] xx
Oh, it's a super-cute style! And looks both cozy and girly.

Every day is a good day for grey in my book!
that watch is gourgeous but I think a pair of pants were more suitable with that sweater..^.^ (I'm also in love with any kind of ruffle dress)
kisses
Please don't touch anything about this outfit ... it's perfection!
That watch is dynamite!
Aww.. love the slouchy sweater with the skirt. Hope the sun comes out soon!

I think the jumper and skirt combo looks really cute! I am short and can't seem to get away with short skirts (they make me look shorter), so I am way jealous!!
And I totally did not know that dark chocolate contains iron. Thanks so much for justifying chocolate munching to me!! It completely made my day!!

adore this look!!!
Wow your watch is amazing.
I love oversize, soft sweaters with girly skirts!
I have a skirt just like that. I love it. -Feather
