Weekly Roundup: Items with Texture

Here’s a short roundup of cute items with subtle or dramatic texture. Most of them were winners on my clients, and can be dressed up or down. Some of the pieces are available in multiple colours. 

  • Lafayette 148 New York ‘Iconic Collection’ Cashmere Gathered Asymmetrical Sweater: A good top for a larger bust and curvy upper body. Works quite well on apple-shaped body types too (the ruching and fabric are forgiving on the midsection). Good on a longer torso and on Team Tall. Runs big.
  • Burberry Bell Sleeve Sweatshirt: Comfy Architectural Flounce.
  • FLY London Women’s Suzu Boot: Comfortable maximal wedge booties. Good on a variety of foot shapes. Great with dark neutrals.
  • Kate Spade New York kate spade new york ‘bow logo’ gloves: The prettiest gloves I’ve seen all year, which is why the cream had to be mine. Dainty, refined, well made, Modern Retro and quite practical since the underside is black. Tech friendly too, which means you don’t need to remove your gloves to use your phone. They’re a little wide for narrow palms and fingers, but not too bad.
  • Latigo Isaac Lace-Up Bootie (Women): Casual mango lace-up booties add pizzazz to an outfit. Comes in plum, black, and brown too. Best on a higher volume foot and wider ankle. Quite comfy.
  • Sweater Dress with Ruffle Shoulder: A super cute sweater dress for hourglasses and pear-shaped body types who can wear a turtleneck. Finish off the outfit with textured black hosiery and black boots.
  • Banana Republic Pleated Button Up Blouse: A non-crease pleated blouse for Team Subtle Boho. Works on a range of body types.
  • Topshop Leopard Print Genuine Calf Hair Belt: A rich leopard belt for pattern mixing an outfit.
  • Anthropologie Soma Velvet Scarf: A luxe velvet scarf for Team Cool Colours. The pink and lilac colour way is just as fab.
  • Eileen Fisher Tuck Siped Almond Toe Bootie (Women): A bootie that looks a lot better in person. The texture reminds me of fish scales, and looks best in the grey. Great support and fits a higher volume foot. Tidy fit around the ankle. Comfy.
  • Karen Millen SWING COAT: A pretty and quite architectural Modern Retro swing coat for milder Winters. High longevity factor. Will not date. Well made. The black buttons make ALL the difference (does not look like a lab coat). Oversized and structured in the right places. It was almost mine.
  • Topshop Kate Faux Fur Coat: ’70s Faux Fur Fabness. Bulky, but that’s the look.
  • Karen Millen Large O-ring Leather Handbag: A sleek and trendy O-ring bag that adds dressy structure and polish to an outfit.
  • Topshop Bead Fringe Clutch: A little fuzzy fringe to carry instead of wear. Moody palette.
  • Topshop Sweet Dreams Faux Fur Coat: A Shrimps faux fur look-alike coat for a fraction of the price. It makes a bold statement so consider yourself warned.
  • Topshop Eyelet Bomber Jacket: Maximal Biker Bomber Fabness.
  • Marc Jacobs The Standard Medium Leather Tote: Carry a metallic bag throughout Winter because why not!
  • Anthropologie Ruffled Shoulder Cardigan: The photo does not do this super cute cardigan justice. In fact, it looks better worn as a pullover with all the buttons done up. Darker in person, and a very fun swingy silhouette with flounces and good drape.
  • Anthropologie Golden Knit Beret: A gold beret just for fun.
  • Anthropologie Ombre Infinity Scarf: Cosy cool tones for your neck.
  • SOREL Addington Lace: Comfortable and tough casual booties if you can manage the heel height.
  • J.Jill Madison jacquard topper: A floral sweater jacket that fits a range of body types. Good length for taller gals. Runs big.
  • Halogen Slouchy Cashmere Beanie: An adorable casual and on trend pom pom hat for a smaller head. All the colours are nice. I bought the cream.
  • Aquatalia Yulia Weatherproof Chelsea Boot (Women): Sleek, classic and Equestrian chic. Best on lower volume feet and narrow ankles. Impeccable quality. Very comfortable, and weatherproof.
  • Aquatalia Fianna Weatherproof Bootie (Women): Sleekest suede booties I’ve seen all year. On trend snip toe and an excellent fit on low volume feet. Good on narrow ankles. Beautifully made. Both the cognac and pearl grey are gorgeous. Very comfortable and 100% weatherproof.
  • Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Faux Fur Chelsea Sneaker (Women): Super cute, comfy, classic, and graphic. Grippy soles for rain and ice. High shafts for ankle coverage. Fleece lining for warmth.
    Laces to fit narrow ankles. Gold elastic and grommets for magpies. They’re a little wide for low volume feet, but not a problem with thick socks and insoles (can accommodate an orthotic too). They will work well for high volume feet. They followed me home and are my new very casual Winter bootie. AMAZING price.
