Guest Post: TKMaxx's hottest winter trends

Hi guys,
If I could list ‘designer-bargain-hunting’ as a hobby, it would probably be right up there, which is why, when TK Maxx asked if they could write a post about some of their favourite winter looks in store right now, I could hardly resist. So, are we in for a treat this season? Let’s find out…

Shoes, shoes, shoes...and matching bags?

Hi All,

.

I know it's very old fashioned, but I like nothing more than a matching shoe and bag combo, I think it adds a certain glamour to the plainest outfits. Now I know that I should really be wearing bright pink shoes with an orange dress and a blue bag, but I just can't bring myself to do it. Sadly for fashion I am my mother's daughter and I even match my make up to my outfits. I've tried to be cool and do the whole "thrown together" look but I just can't!

.

Before you all dismiss me as a fashion heathen have a look at the images and tell me that matching shoes and bags don't look lovely!?

.

I am trying, and you never know, but a little perseverence you might see me with a neon green clutch bag and purple shoes a la colour blocking trend.

.

Until then...I think I will stick to matching, it is what my mummy would want to see!
