A Guide To The Best Winter Coats

 

Here is a guide to the best winter coats and jackets. I thought I'd do a post on this because this year I've found it really hard to find a coat that I both love and suits me. I've eventually found a  cosy parka but it took a while to find! So here is a round up of the best if you can’t find your new favourite coat;

 

Also check out Primark’s range of coats. Even though some may think of them as being cheap and nasty, the clothes have improved a lot within the past year. I've seen a load of great Primark coats in magazines. Some even look better than the pricier options available.

Do you think slippers are just for your grannie? Well think again. You certainly won’t be ashamed to step outside in these stylish flats (they’re also known as ‘smoking slippers’).

Free Download: Charli XCX’s brand new mixtape ‘Super Ultra’

 

 

While we are eagerly awaiting her debut album release, Charli XCX has released a brand new Mixtape to tide us over for a while. Talking about the Mixtape Charli says;

All the songs are about love. Sometimes it's stupid love and sometimes it's heartbreaking love. It's about being confused. In particular, GLOW is a really emotional song for me. I think I had my first proper breakdown when I wrote that song. I cried a lot.
I cried a lot whilst making this mixtape, which is funny because some of the songs seem quite light-hearted and a bit... I dunno... Gangster. To me they're all sad songs in some way though. Some songs were inspired by moments in movies - like DANCE 4 U was inspired by the opening scene of Planet Terror, where Rose McGowan does the pole dance. I think that's a really sad and desperate scene. It makes me cry when I watch it.
I guess that's all just personal shit though. I don't want people to be sad when they listen to SUPER ULTA... I want them to be happy, and I want them to dance. No one dances in this town anymore.
