Considering this hat has barely left my head since I got it, I’m surprised this is the first outfit post it’s appeared in. What could be better to brighten up a dull winters day than a beanie with cute little ears? It’s not often that I find something that combines my usual style & my love of cute things as well as this does, so of course it was an instant favourite. I love that it gives me a way of including this part of my personality in my outfits, subtly, without being over the top girly or cutesy.
I have a bit of a thing for nice fabrics & this Joseph dress is made from the most lovely thick, heavy wool jersey, I couldn’t stop touching it! The skirt hangs so beautifully because of the weight of the fabric & gives it this perfect softly structured silhouette, which I love. The nice thing about this fabric is that it’s really warm too, I didn’t feel like I needed any extra layers when I left the house in the morning, though by the time it got properly dark I was shivering at the bus stop & wishing I’d stuffed a spare sweater into my bag to throw on! I’m always being tricked by this bloody British weather!

LOVE the hat and belt. I’ve never seen you wearing jeans or shorts though. Any particular reason for that? Keep rocking!
FAIIINT says
I don’t like my thighs, so I tend not to wear shorts or super short dresses/skirts & prefer to keep them hidden! Ha! I used to live in jeans, but then became more of a dress/leggings person, mostly due to comfort really because I like my jeans super skinny & they’re not always the comfiest! I do still wear them fairly often though, this one here is a recent one with jeans :)

How are you always so damn cool?! You even make the cutesy cat ear hats look badass. Also that belt *swoon* I would never be able to pull it off but it look so fab on you!

That is a very cute outfit! Is it just me or is becoming more difficult to find winter clothing that is warm, stylish and NOT bulky/uncomfortable to move in?
On the topic of cute kitty things, I found a pair of stockings that have little kitty faces just above the knee. I was very happy with my purchase for the same reason.

Adorable! The fact that the hat is black and with kind of cat shape ears makes it adorable edgy haha I hate things too girly too. The belt/harness is gorgeous and Happy new year to you too Steph. I really wish you all the best :)
Georgina says
Holy, that belt is fantastic! I’ve been trying to find something similar without luck.. That is so stunning. I love the outfit! The hat is just a perfect combination of edgy and cute!
steph says
Oh that belt is amazing! Reminds me a bit of the Fleet Ilya ones. Love how it goes so well with the hat too, the cat ears are a little unexpected but great detail! I told my boyfriend W that I needed that hat and he was like, you’ll never take it off and might confuse Fluffy! I know what you mean about the heavier jersey – I can imagine it moves really nicely :)
Josie says
I could tell straight away that dress was made from a good fabric, it looks gorgeous and expensive haha! Definitely worth splashing out on nicer materials though, I’m the same…I like my clothes to feel nice! I love your little hat, I wouldn’t have guessed it’d be your usual style but it looks so cute and really works with your kinda look! xxx
the animal orchestra says
Suuuuuuper adorable. That kitten hat is perfect – I love a touch of whimsy with an all black outfit.
Designer Binary says
Loving the belt as outer wear. And fun elements to outfits are always good like this hat… It is cute but doesn’t look girly on you it’s cool and works well with this ensemble.
