Let me guess, you're probably giving the same bewildered expression to your screen right now as you read yet again that I am obsessing with bright colours in winter. I know all you want to do is cover yourself in a blanket and sip some hot chocolate. I get it, but hear me out (again).

Convinced? Ready to wear pink now then? The key is to keep lines simple and the girliness to a certain level - you don't want to end up looking like a giant marshmallow.

If you're feeling bold, get a pair of bright pink trousers and wear them with your favourite neutrals.

Or simply add a top or warm jumper to your favourite jeans
