Christmas is kitsch, but so is winter

When Shakespeare quoted: "This is the winter of our discontent", he must have been devoid of kitsch and cute fashion to distract his attention away from the appalling British weather.  Here are my tips on essential ways of keeping cute and cosy over the autumn/winter months:

1. Thick hello kitty socks under a pair of weather beating Dr Martens.
2. David and Goliath thermal pyjamas. (I have a pair with snow bunnies on them).
3. Fake furry animal slippers worn with Pringle socks.
4. A animal adorned jumper/cardigan. I have recently purchased one with swans on it.
5. Ear muffs - how could any kitsch blog not give these winter accessories a worthy mention? How far you want to kitsch them up is entirely your decision. Pink ones are cute but not too sure about animal shaped ones - maybe a step too far. I would not want you to look ridiculous or like a five - year - old.
6. Christmas jumpers/ arran knits. Just watch any Christmas episode of the O. C with Seth at his Chrismakkah event.  Baggy boyfriend looks nerdy chic or alternatively wear like Summer and match your boyfriend's jumper. These are a winter fashion staple for any girl.
7. Layering with graphic tees. Graphic tees are a basic in my mind, they can be worn under jumpers in winter or as a top in summer.
8. Patterned/funky coloured tights. If still want to wear cute dresses, tights are a girl's best friend when it is cold. If we have to wear them, they will be attention grabbing.
