It’s wool week here in the UK and we’re choosing to celebrate in style! Wool week is all about raising awareness amongst consumers about the unique, natural and biodegradable benefits offered by the fantastic material. We’re truly flying the flag for British wool this season, from our wonderful fashion pieces, right through to home accessories, there’s plenty of options to pick from. Showing us just how to style up some key pieces we’re joined by the fantastic Felicity and Lauren of Pretty Posh Oh My Gosh who remind us that dressing for the colder seasons is pretty exciting…
We choose to champion British brands (and love heritage trends), so the new wool skirts from Laura Ashley’s A/W collection are perfect for the upcoming colder days. Wool Week is all about the greatness of British wool – it’s versatility, breathable fibres and eco-friendly benefits (it is 100% natural, renewable and biodegradable, too).
Completely spoilt for choice, we each chose a different style skirt to reflect the trends of the season. For Lauren, the 60s shape of the Check Pocket Skirt made it versatile for work and weekend, in classic navy with statement pockets giving it a contemporary twist. For Felicity, the caramel hues of the A line Check Skirt were a nod to the Autumn colours springing forth for October, with a best-of-British tweed-style check.
Crafted from the softest British wool, the Laura Ashley wool skirts are classic investment pieces to wear throughout the colder seasons. Dressed up or down, these hero pieces are easily styled with light layered tops and cardigans or with heavier chunky knits for Winter.
Thanks so much to Felicity and Lauren for sharing their fabulous style with us! Want to know more about wool week? Read up on the fantastic campaign here.
