Travel Wardrobe Tips for Autumn/Winter
Autumn and winter have always been my favourite seasons, if I’m being honest. While summer conjures up images of fun in the sun, vibrant fashion, and relaxing beach days, the latter half of the year creates a sense of comfort with cooler days, hot chocolate, and cozy food. This time of year allows for layering outfits, embracing autumn and winter fashion!
Winter Holiday Fashion
As you prepare for a winter holiday, comfort remains paramount, yet you still want to look stylish. Some years ago, I took a short city break to Budapest, where the weather was quite chilly, even though it wasn’t officially winter yet. I packed a stunning moss-green long-length coatigan from ASOS Curve, a perfect piece for unpredictable weather, and I received many compliments from fellow plus-sized travelers!
