fabrik | winter style

We're half-way through winter and I'm already looking towards spring. Granted, our winter isn't exactly freezing - it's cold enough for a scarf and a knit - but there's still sun most days to warm me up and more often than not I can get away with a single layer up top.

I stepped in front of the camera late last week to capture a few of Fabrik's latest designs. I've been wearing the Everyday Romper a few times each week with a simple long-sleeve tee, a peasant blouse or a fine knit underneath. I've always been tempted to buy overalls but I've never found a pair that really worked. But these ones are perfect - comfortable and flattering - and I'll keep them on high rotation right through spring, too. The straps are easily adjustable so no matter your height you can play with the length. If you're pregnant I think they'd be a great winter option and, of course, they're ideal for breastfeeding mums. See them on a new mum here, a gorgeous mum-of-four here and worn with a knit, here - they're also available in Khaki + Washed Denim.





I'll always choose a skirt over pants but finding a practical and beautiful winter skirt isn't an easy feat. When Fabrik's designer, Sarah, showed me this Khaki Skirt I was sold. Made from brushed cotton drill, it's feminine and light but it also has a lovely structure. I've been wearing it with boots but again, it will work just as well in spring with sandals. Perhaps what I love most about it is the flattering waistline; it really supports the belly without digging in.

I'm wearing the Khaki Skirt with the Silk Trapeze Tank - again, a flattering design that doesn't cut too low under the arm (my pet hate) and its A-line silhouette means it's a perfect shape to wear with pants. I'm not usually one to wear silk but since Daniel and I are making a point of going out to dinner more frequently, a dressier option was required.

Finally, I'm wearing the Chambray Skirt with the Elliot Blouse; a cotton voile design with beautiful lace inserts near the cuff. Indeed, it's a little bit prairie and a little bit Woodstock - pretty enough for a date night and just as good with a big knit cardi over the top.

Fancy adding a piece or two to your winter wardrobe? Enter code PS10 at checkout to get 10% off storewide. And a little note on sizing: Fabrik's sizing is generous (I'm a size 10 and wear Fabrik size 1).

This is a sponsored post, thanks so much for supporting the brands that so generously support me.
