Layer Up!
Brrr, it's definitely time to layer up! Fine layers are key and we have created a look for you that you can also adapt into your own style keeping to the basic code. Step by step we start from great second skin base layers right through to cosy soft top layers, accessories and outerwear.
Starting with the American Vintage fine base layers. The most popular being the classic 'Massachussets' long sleeve style that sits next to the skin and is made of the softest cotton. They come in a huge range of colours allowing you to mix and match with most of your wardrobe.
Next comes the core layer determining the direction and overall look of your outfit. This can range from a luxury silky piece, fine wool knit, cotton or cashmere. There is also almost a free rein on style possibly choosing a dress, tunic, oversized knit or shirt dress. This Day knitted dress adds a great twist with it's metallic fleck running through the knit and silver stud detailing on the pockets.
Accessorizing can also allow you to put your own stamp on your look. Scarves are always good for the layered look adding another dimension, accent colour or print. This cashmere blend charcoal scarf is so easy doesn't even need to be tied. Just loop it on and off you go.
Pulling together your look is the outer layer and in the cold weather this is the most important piece. From smart and tailored, to capes and warm padded coats, once again the direction is endless. Our look is everyday luxe so we've chosen the Day down filled padded coat. It's neat shape doesn't overpower the rest of your outfit, it's lightweight, looks stylish and is most importantly warm!
And here is our look pulled together
New In
Yes, we love deliveries here at L'Armoire. There is always something new and exciting to unpack on a weekly basis. This week saw the drop of the unstructured jackets from American Vintage. They are great for adding a cool edge to a look without being too rigid or overdressed. Coming in two great styles. The oversized boyfriend knitted jacket that looks effortless style over a simple white shirt and also the shorter cotton collar-less jacket which can be worn over tunics, jumper dresses or fine layers once again. We can't wait for next week!
A pretty blouse always has a place in our wardrobes anytime of the year and this sheer dreamy number is no exception. New in, it's light and delicate style is complimented by the nude colour tone and looks beautiful against black, brown and all tones of grey.
New In Cowbridge
Have you visited Arboreal yet? Just two doors down from us here on Eastgate is Cowbridge's newest addition, (and no we are not on commission, just impressed!). A unique cafe kitchen bar that's open all day long for breakfast, lunch and dinner it's a great place to stop for something to eat or just coffee while out shopping. The food is fresh, tasty and original and cooked right in front of your eyes in their open kitchen with an impressive wood burning oven. They also sell the most delicious chocolate brownies homemade and supplied locally. The L'Armoire team has already become regulars in the short space of a week...whoops!
See you soon xx
