Fashion Blog – Drib Drab Winter

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Leeds chapter.

I am the BIGGEST culprit of this so don’t worry girls I am not judging. I just felt like it needed to be said that when the sun takes a break over winter, so does our colour creativity. Whether we are going to lectures, to the shops or a night out we tend to wear two colours; Grey or Black.

Here is an example of a winter outfit that will put a smile on yours and other people’s faces whilst you skip (the effect not wearing black will have on you) through the park.
For those of you who really want to go the whole hog and get into the spirit of things here are a few injections of colour and style that the high street of Leeds is currently offering us:
