Time for thermals!

Today I'm wearing my most recent purchase, the J.Crew Matte Chelsea Boots in camouflage; which I finally managed to pick up from the post office after missing the delivery, not finding the 'missed you' card and wondering where on earth they could have got to. After an email to J.Crew customer services they assured me it was with a zillion other parcels waiting for collection at the main depot. 

I'm really pleased with them but note I did go up a half size after reading a few reviews and knowing I'd probably be wearing them with thicker socks. I normally wear a UK 5, EU 38, usually a US 7.5 but went for a US 8 and they're the perfect size.

Here I've teamed them with Lee skinny jeans, Uniqlo flannel check shirt, over a Uniqlo heattech t-shirt, Maje parka, cable knit hat, Dents sheepskin gloves, similar here, all old. However today was the first time I've reached for my thermals and I swear by the heattech range from Uniqlo. I've also got some thin M&S Heatgen leggings that I can wear under my skinny jeans, so I thought I'd look for the best of the rest of thermals on the high street at the moment.
Starting with the trademark Heatgen range from M&S this polo neck can easily be layered under an on trend flowy midi dress for extra warmth.

 Sweaty Betty Japanese Landscape jacquard pattern leggings £65
If you're booking a ski holiday and looking for a thicker thermal then you can't beat Sweaty Betty for base layers. As well as being stylish they are seamless so no need to worry about uncomfortable kinks. However it seems a shame to cover up these statement Japanese Landscape jacquard pattern leggings with salopettes!

Uniqlo Heattech knitted tights limited offer £9.90
Uniqlo Heattech knitted tights limited offer £9.90
If you want a thermal pair of tights but don't want to feel the heat on your bottom then clever Uniqlo have designed tights that keep you warm from just hip to toe. 

The Uniqlo t-shirt in todays outfit builder is the same as my own and with some Heattech styles currently on limited offer now is definitely the time to stock up before we have more snow flurries.

See the rest of my outfit builder below for a 'layering light but keeping warm' outfit, which is similar to my own. Click on the links to shop and thanks for stopping by.
