Problem: Baby, it's cold outside, plus I'm a cash-strapped fashionista.
Solution: Wear things that are practical, affordable and look good.
This week, we take inspo from the Ecru trend of A/W 2013 and recent red carpet style. Sure, it is cold, but you can be hot.

WHITE CHRISTMAS
Excuse us for being festive far too early, but how can we
resist when winter brings so many new trends? Whites a crisp as snow have an understated
glamour with minimum effort, and they are versatile enough to be carried
through to next season. Copy the catwalk by picking panelled items that contour
your body.

ADD SOME FROSTING
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend and a bank accounts worst
enemy. We don’t know any students who can afford diamonds, but if they do exist
then they probably spend their thousands on nights out instead. For those looking for
sparkles on a budget, the high street has the answer; Topshop and Miss
Selfridge have dazzling ranges that make any outfit shine.

COMFY CASUAL
Kylie Jenner recently caused MTV AMAs viewers to take a
second glance by turning up in casual baggy trousers, a plain top and a heavy
fringe. We’re not saying you have to get your hair cut like she did, but her trousers looked
pretty damn good. Pair your baggy trousers with some clumpy heels and you are
set to smarten up your sofa clothes.
