Uggs and a cardy

    London women can be incredibly stylish too -- like Italian women, but in a different way.

    Italian women go for the classic, where London women opt for the funky. Both work.

    Here, because of the ever-changing weather, even in the summer you see women wearing boots (yes, even Uggs). Or sandals.  

    Doesn't matter. Layer it up. Or layer it down.

    Uggs with a summer skirt. Sandals with a long cardigan over a couple t-shirts. Leggings under short-shorts. Take your pick. Any combo goes.

    One essential item, though, both to get the look -- and to keep warm when it suddenly starts hailing -- is the "cardy" or cardigan sweater.

    Gotta have some of those. And as cute as possible please. Cropped, long, tied, swaying, straight, narrow, plain, decorated, purple, green, anything you want, just get some.

    Don't have a lot of cardys, me. Just a couple of plain black ones. Need some. 

    And my husband gave me a pair of Uggs for Christmas, but who thought I might be wearing them in late June with a summer skirt? So I've stuffed them to the back of some closet.

    I'm learning there's no such thing as winter and summer clothes here, though. 

    It's just, a coat on top of that cardy? Or perhaps another cardy on top of that cardy? Or is it just a one-cardy day? 

    And tights with those Uggs? Or none now, but maybe later?
