What do you guys think of the whole nomadic style?

I’m kinda digging it. It has such a free spirited boho feel that makes me want to embrace it.

When I saw this, “Coatigan” the other day at Edgars, I immediately fell in love with it.

It reminds me of a real hippie/ surfer girl style (even though I’m no longer a Durban girl, and besides I never surfed – although I did try a few times and was just no good)

But anyway!

I loved it! The hoodie and fringe detail really appealed to me, as did the intricate knit.

I thought it would make a great addition to my wardrobe, since I could wear it in winter, but ultimately, my thoughts when buying it, was with the idea of wearing it in the Spring. Think denim cut off shorts, a little white tee and brown combat boots!

But Spring feels like a million miles away, I thought I’d try out a different style for winter this weekend…

Excluding the shoes and sunnies, I found all the pieces for this outfit at Edgars. I really enjoy shopping there these days – their selection is so fab. They carry great in-house pieces (like my coatigan) as well as a range of trendy international brands.

A great international brand that I really love is Tom Tailor Denim. It’s so hip and the clothes are not only great quality, but fit really well too.

My first Tom Tailor Denim purchase was this off white blouse. I’m obsessed with the detail on the front and love that it flows, but doesn’t look bulky.

Tom Tailor Denim jeans are also worth a try if you’re in the market for new jeans. I bought these skinny jeans and love them to bits! I tried on a couple of styles, but loved these. They were very much like jeggings, but with real pockets and great detail in the stitching.
