Winter fashion collection: Ensemble 3

In the world of fashion, discovering a new favourite piece can be a delightful experience. For the author of the blog series "Von Camping und Wimpel", this delight came in the form of a cashmere dress, found at a resale shop last year.

The dress, a heather charcoal colour, is a versatile addition to the author's wardrobe, suitable for both evening and casual wear. However, at home, the dress is kept cosy and protected from dog hair by the author's choice to forgo black clothing. Instead, the dress is paired with plain black socks and dark brown boots to keep things subtle while trying a new look with bare legs.

The outfit vibe is a fresh departure for the author, who typically opts for leggings with the dress. But when paired with a longer cardigan, the dress becomes suitable for bare legs, adding a touch of elegance to the everyday. The cardigan, a new addition to the author's collection, is only donned when leaving the house and shed at home.

The author's footwear choice, flat, more masculine Chelsea boots, balances the exposed leg length, creating a harmonious look. The bag used for the outing was by Live FashionABLE, a brand known for their responsible production methods.

The cashmere dress, despite appearing black in photos, easily brushes off dog hair, making it a practical choice for the author's lifestyle. The dress still looks beautiful and has lots of life left in it, leading the author to consider investing in high quality pieces that can serve for a long time.

The #winter10x10 remix challenge, hosted by Lee of Style Bee, encourages participants to try new combinations and discover new favourite looks. The author, having embraced this challenge, has shared Outfit #3, which is loved by the author. A quick start guide is available for participants to start the remix in just 15 minutes.

The author is working from home in the morning, running errands in the afternoon, doing yoga in the early evening, and cooking dinner and relaxing with Aaron in the evening. Through this day, the cashmere dress, comfortable as pajamas, remains a stylish and practical choice, proving itself to be a worthy investment.
