Jumper, skirt and tee -  charity shop, socks - unknown, boots – Internacionale, necklace – Select

I’m pretty sure I own the largest collection of tartan this side of the wall right now and I’ve been waiting for it to get cool enough to actually start wearing some. This mid calf length woollen skirt is one I picked up months ago in a local charity shop for a mere £2.50. There are so many tartan outfit posts in the blogosphere but I'd like to wave the flag for blue tartan and all other colours too (I have others). The simple feature I like best about the skirt is the velvet band at the waist, which sadly will be hidden the vast majority of the time. I wanted to wear this cropped jumper to allow the waistband the chance to shine, while it's warm enough not to need to wallow in a mass of layers.

The length of skirt is a funny one and I must admit I'd prefer it to be kissing the floor instead of letting the wind whistle round my ankles (hence the woolly socks) but I'll make do. Incidentally the socks and boots look is one I aim to go for this winter, but for that I will need more attractive socks, better get shopping I suppose...
