We love layering and getting the layering look right is both an art and a science. It is an art to look effortless and awesome, and a science to functionally get all the layers right .. so here are some tips to get you started on layering like an expert: 1. Start with the basics. A dress, a skirt and blouse, leggings and a T ... so layer one! 2. Add more clothes. A sweater over the blouse, a buttoned up cardigan over the T, a sparkly tank over the plain one. Now if you are feeling brave (or are just chilly!) go ahead and add another layer. A jacket over the sweater over the blouse, a chunky cardigan over the buttoned up cardigan over the T, a vest over the sparkly tank over the plain one. You get the idea. 3. Layer on Accessories. Accessories are essentially another layer. Think belts, scarves, necklaces. A couple of tips to help get it right: Start small: Add one more layer to what you would normally wear. Avoid looking bulky by layering thin pieces out to thicker. Mix Fabrics. A wool vest over a silk blouse, a chunky cashmere cardigan over a thin cotton T. Vests are a great way to start your layering. and of course you can find lovely layers and basics at lovelayersandbasics.co.uk
