2x2 ALL BLACK OUTFIT? PUT A HAT ON IT

Sometimes, the best thing about an outfit is the cheapest thing. My primark kitty hat. I've been waiting two years for primark to make cat face hat; I've had an owl and, I think, a bear hat in the previous winters, but never a kitty hat, not until now. It gets a lot of wear, I tell you.

I got it the week before Christmas, and looking back on that experience, I'd really not recommend anybody visits primark the weekend before Christmas. It was hell. I did get a squirrel onesie out of it {from my boyfriend as a surprise present for the 24th}, but more on that later. Or perhaps not.

And because this is the second outfit of the winter capsule, I feel like I should introduce the pieces so that you know them and hear their stories. Enter black rinse, high-rise, ripped-knee jeans. Following this autumn's realisation, any jeans I bought would have to be high-waisted and I wanted to embrace the ripped-knee trend because, you know, I wanted to be cool.

The sweater is from madewell and I ordered it from the US, because I love the varsity trend and it has alpaca in it. It was, obviously, on sale. After reading the comments and reviews I'd ordered a Large, I like oversize sweaters and didn't want it to be tight on me. But turns out, I shouldn't have payed attention to Mandy from Ohio who, according to her review, shares the same weight and height with me and recommends a Large. I tried it on when it arrived and I could easily fit another half of me there, so I'm hoping to get my mum to help me take it in on the sides. It's still a favourite though.

What about you? Any cool or uncool favourites for this cold season? Any good hats?
