My favourite winter accessories are a Hat and Umbrella! I love hats and I don't care if they don't suit me well. If it keeps my ears warm in the bone chilling cold early in the morning, I will be wearing it! I am also a huge fan of ear muffs but unfortunately they are usually a bit too big for my tiny head and miss the top of my ears - not an effective way of keeping me warm! I love this hat I'm wearing. The embellished bow is what attracted me. You can't go wrong with neutral colours. I wasn't going to buy the hat, I thought I only like the bow I could make it, it wont cost me anything but it was a pretty cheap hat, from Matalan at £5.
Another accessory I love during the winter is an umbrella. I love polka dots and I saw this umbrella hanging from a mile away! My previous umbrella had just broken so I was on a look out for one. I am so picky when it comes to the price of umbrellas. I do go digging and occasional find ones for £2 that last me a couple years. I did spend £6 on this one from Matalan. It is one of the most expensive umbrellas I have purchased. However it is much larger then my previous one and it's made pretty well, I didn't seem flimsy at all, seems quite strong.
I think umbrellas are such a good item to accessorise with. When its miserable and raining a nice umbrella is a great way to brighten up your day! I usually go for bright colours but this one is black and white, still pretty with the polka dots. Imagine how lovely everyone would look if they had bright patterned umbrellas!
