Oversized Jumpers in Spring

Jumpers are for the whole year not just for the winter! Wear your oversized jumper instead of a summer jacket, it will keep you warmer on those breezier summer days and is super comfy! It's the perfect festival fashion item too, it's oversized, it's grunge, it's the new oversized cardigan! I always take my oversized jumper when I go body boarding, it keeps me warm after I take my wetsuit off and acts as a changing room to remove wet swim wear and then it's a perfect grungy fashion item for hanging out on the beach in the late afternoon! Don't neglect your jumpers this spring / summer! 

Here's a couple ways I have worn mine lately with or without the sunshine, dressed up or down the oversized jumper wins!

Get Cosy in Chunky Knits

Hey hey Fashionistas! No Debutante is back. As my family life gets more and more hectic with my three speedily growing children taking up a lot of time with three music gradings, a first place in a swimming gala and a two broken braces under their belts, plus I managed to squeeze in time for a big awards ceremony at work and a rather amazing Russian Doll tattoo (watch this space for the pics) So, yes, its been rather busy and we still have three nights of a school performance of Peter Pan to contend with!

Finally, I have found a moment to catch up with my fashion correspondence and write a quick blog post. Today's moments of No Debutante fashion and fun feature chunky knits worn oversized and layered up. It's still freezing here in the UK and a big chunky knit is very much an essential wardrobe item! Here's how I've been wearing mine......

Oversized Jumper Obsession

The weather is cold and this calls for big, cosy oversized jumpers! I used to be an oversized cardigan obsessive but that drafty, open fronted oversized cardigan needs to step aside for the full coverage warmth and coolness of the oversized jumper. A great purchase for the winter months but a fashion item that will continue on through the summer worn on those cooler summer nights and a festival must have this year. Get yours and make it an extra large, if you cant wear it as a mini dress then its not big enough! 

Here's a few ways No Debutante wears her oversized jumpers over these cold, winter months and expect to see more personal style outfits featuring these oversized knitted beauties over the next year! Remember an oversized jumper is not just for the Winter!

Primark Sunday & How No Debutante wears it - Autumn Winter 2014

As any regular to the No Debutante blog will know, twice a year I take a visit to Primark to see what they have available for the new season. Today we are looking at what I purchased from the AW 2014 range. 

I usually have an idea of what I need or what I would like to find from the ridiculously low priced, high fashion items that Primark has to offer. I had collected alot of Pinterest images of oversized, grungy jumpers and since I already own loads of oversized cardigans, it was definitely time for a change. The jumper I found was a lovely mint green knit in the softest and most un-itchy wool ever, I say wool, without looking it is probably a polyester imitation wool, but I ain't caring, this jumper rocks it! It is so cosy and cuddly and big, it's perfect for winter, worn alone or layered over dresses, this jumper is great! Speaking of dresses, you are aware of my current obsession with smock dresses right? And of course my love affair with grunge?  Well, howsabout a plaid smock style dress? Yes, please! This dress came in two colourways (that I could find) and I even sent my husband Phil a photograph of the dresses together (see below) to ask him which one I should buy. (Phil is used to this sort of thing) I (we) decided on the red check dress since I already have a blue plaid smock dress from The White Pepper. The Primark smock dress is more grunge than baby doll, it kinda hangs like a shirt and lacks the volume of the White Pepper smock but that cool, it's different. Now? How to finish this look? Shoes....I have been crying over all the amazing but ridiculously high priced, platform style ankle boots that have been around for about a year on the high street but needed something not too high to wear during the day ( I walk alot!) then I stumble upon these platform Chelsea boot style beauties at Primark for £15. I tried them on, fell in love and chucked them in the wheelie trolley without a moments hesitation. Job done! Three great items for under £50 including shoes. Good Ol' Primark! 

I totally rate Primark, it never let's me down. I think the key to a successful Primark shop is to limit the amount of times you visit per year, have a plan, a budget and a time limit and most importantly try it all on! 

Keep up to date with No Debutante on all these social networking sites (blogger, Istagram, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr) and check out how I mix and match my new Primark items over the next few months. 

Here are three ways I've worn it so far. Which is your favourite??
