Buuurrrrrrr!!! Winter is upon us, and what better way to embrace this chilly season than with a shopping trip. It's out with the beachwear, floaty summer dresses and cotton fabrics, and in with the Winter woolies. So, wear to  start?

I always start with a versatile "jumper dress". A "jumper dress" can be worn over jeans and teamed with trendy boots, and a chunky necklace or a scarf (layering is huge this season) to create an uber stylish look. This easy look is perfect for the school run or for similar boring everyday errands, keeping the busy fashionista cozy and on trend all at the same time. A jumper dress should be your basis for your winter wardrobe, as it is easily and cheaply transformed, so it's worth your while to invest in a good one.

Good News: The highstreet is busting with these "jumper dresses", everyone from River Island to Primark, H&M to Next have a huge range of them right now in a huge range of sizes and to fit all budgets...so in other words...get shopping!

For some inspiration on how to wear and customise your dress see the many celebs below who have all invested this season.

Left to Right: Ashley Tisdale looking snug pumping petrol, Catherine Zeta Jones looking warm about town and my personal fashion icon Jessica Alba looking casual and comfy, layering her knits to stay bang on trend.

Knits can easily be transformed using basic materials found at your local haberdashery shop. I just LOVE how Rhianna has transformed this pretty average grey jumper by popping a tulle skirt underneath and finishing the look with pleather boots and super hot burgundy lipstick. Three of this seasons hottest trends in one, fabulous.
