Remember Remember! Making the sparks fly this Bonfire Night

Bonfire night is one of the first major events of the holiday season, and in many ways it’s a handy precursor to Christmas and New Year’s Eve. Firework events up and down the country will be lighting up the sky – and as November 5th falls on a Saturday this year, the parties are bound to be extra festive. So it’s the perfect opportunity to show off some spectacular winter fashion.

Obviously you’re going to need some protection from the elements while you’re enjoying the fireworks, so a warm winter coat is an essential. Military-style coats are a huge trend at the moment, and they’re a great combination of fashion and comfort. This Frill Military Coat can be tied in the middle to emphasise your waist and create a feminine shape, while this Flashlights Style Jacket with piping detail has a real continental feel.

If you’re moving on from a bonfire display to a party, you’ll want to be wearing something stylish and versatile underneath your winter warmers. Team a mid-length print dress with black or grey leggings. Remember, a field is no place for heels, so if you’re going to an outdoor display, bring along some hardy ankle boots.

If you’re looking for something a bit more casual, a jumper dress is a great way to keep the cold at bay. This skirted Joe Brown Versatile Knit is another piece that really allows you to work the layered look with a thin top and leggings underneath.

Whether you’re attending a professional display or setting off a few rockets in your back yard, be sure to keep it safe and have plenty of fun. If you bought an item from our catalogue that really got the sparks flying, be sure to let us know. Until next time…
