Oversized x

WordPress have been highlighting a new editor/format thingy for some time. But I’ve been ignoring it – a bit like a visit to the dental hygienist – you know you need to do it, but hate paying for the privilege and pain. It came to bite me on the bum this morning when I sat down to write a normal post and came face to face with my new reality. So I’ve decided to embrace the inevitable, override my inner voice saying ‘stick to simple’ and experiment – a bit like these peeps above are prepared to do.

I can’t decide if my love of oversized comes from form or rebellion, but it certainly speaks to me as the liberal way of dressing. To me it says the clothes I wear are more important than the body I have underneath and the shapes I create override any perceptions you may wish to project onto me. It says volume, space, freedom and comfort. And it says I can have all these things and still be stylish.

In my big, baggy, extra large book that’s a winner, winner chicken bloody dinner.

Is the long winter, oversized eighties era coat finally coming back?

 

Apart from their ability to gather up leaves whilst walking down steps.  It’s a huge thumbs up from here.

The weather in London isn’t brilliant making it easy to feel nostalgic for soft, comforting layers.

The hunt is now on for the perfect oversized slouchy eighties-style sweater.

A classic for any wardrobe.
