Winter coat question


I seem to have lost the ability to clothes shop for myself. I suppose it's been a while... maybe 18 months... since I last tried.

All I want is a hat, gloves and a scarf to go with my coat. It's a bright red (think post box) coat and I want a set that match (each other). Apart from the fact that I can't decide what colour to have, I can't find any matching sets anywhere. Is it me?

At the moment I have a pink beanie hat (it clashes but is warm), cream scarf and black gloves. The cream looks nice and I've got some cream gloves somewhere but they last about 2 seconds before they're filthy dirty.

What colour should I wear and where can I get it from?

bright colours together is all the range apparently, my sister reckons you should team up the coat with another bright colour like blue or maybe puple, om not too sure lol, if i were you, id be going with an all round black theme, you can get some nice ones from DP a set with black gloves scarf and beanie which has a single piece of red thread running through them, looks cute and would match your coat

These colours would look nice withe pillar box red:

Black
Navy
Beige/Fawn
Purple (my favourite)

Lots of scope.

As for where to buy: Woolworths, Debenhems, John Lewis, Accessorize, TK Max, TJ Hughes, Dorothy Perkins, E-bay

Best of luck and enjoy your shopping.

I also think black...

it goes with red and any other colour if you happened to buy another coat or jacket.

And as you said about cream getting filthy... black dosent show it so much...

Next is always a good place to try, house of fraser, debenhams, dorothy perkins... Not so sure these days but Top Shop used stock nice hats, gloves & scarves.
