‘Gillet, Gillet’ – it’s time to ‘fur up’ now…
It’s warm and it’s cosy and it’s fashionably ‘posy’ it’s a fake fur jacket with no sleeves, it’s a Gillet! And why am I bringing this up now? Well..because..in my town and the surrounding areas, you literally can’t move for seeing them..they have almost become a ‘uniform’ even toddlers are wearing them! Though I will not..as they are just not very ‘Philippa’ and it is a bit ‘nonsense’ to me..‘wot no sleeves’?? 
Sorry…but I do not like having cold arms, of course you can ‘layer up’, and that is what others are doing, but for a lady such as ‘meself’ like, they are just not for me..though that does not stop me admiring them from a far..and has my pictures here prove there is more than sufficient choice in colours and textures, though to note burgundy seems to be the colour to go with this season. 
Still I am not tempted, to be honest I think I would look ‘stupid’ in a gillet & while you’re at it..you might as well throw in some ‘Ugg-type’ boots into the mix..it just wouldn’t work. So I’m afraid I can’t jump on this ‘gillet bandwagon’ and look like everyone else around here..though I do love fake fur and it is ‘big’ this season, you can see it on gloves, bags, and Pom Pom’s of course, but still I cannot make that jump into the ‘fake fur atmosphere’, this is a uniform that unfortunately I will not be ‘donning’ in this season, will you?
