Stocking up for Winter...

Fluff, foxes and collarless coats were the vibes I received from shops on my recent outing. Yet again chunky boots have made an appearance alongside a lot of wool-wool blend hats, coats and dresses, meaning this is going to be one cosy Autumn and Winter. I'm glad to see the back of neons and the entrance of the deep, rich, earthy tones. This is the season of sophistication with the added cuteness of winter animals. Layering doesn't just mean a cardigan-layering means the full 'shabang'-think hats, scarves, gloves, jumpers, tops, vests, coats, why be cold when you can have layers? The textures make everything more interesting. The soft velvets and fluffs contrast the rougher wool and sequinned options.

Indeed I have been on a little spree, to stock up on some winter warmers. To make sure that although the weather can be dull, my clothing will not reflect that- to make sure that I am cosy, comfortable and my clothes reflect my love for this time of year.
















As you can see I have got a bit of a variety there, from animal print items to some very staple pieces. The thing is with winter, things come back every year so as long as I don't grow (considering my petite height of 5ft) this shouldn't be a problem. Thank-you very much for viewing my blog today.

The Sun Is Our Biggest Traitor...

It's time to get ready for the beautiful crisp sound of the crunchy leaves under our boots. It is time to replace silk for wool. We need to appreciate the mustards and burgandys, the oranges and browns. The mist on the grass that makes us feel ever so fresh and the cold autumn air that burns our faces. It gives us the excuse to top our hot chocolate with extra marshmallows and cream. It gives us the excuse to stare out the window and watch the rainbow flowers turn green. Walking home under a shower of leaves with an ever quickening dark night. Wrap up warm, toasty.






When our mouths produce a cold misty flame that makes us think we are dragons. When our noses blush and our cheeks flush red and our ears tingle in the cold. The sun is our biggest traitor, it is far from the warmth it portrays. With the screams of the fair and the bang of the fireworks it's an ever so vocal season. The dilemma of whether to text or to keep your fingers warm. The spiky shell's of conkers are scattered across the floor, out hatched is a conker ready to win a conker war. Autumn is such a beautiful time, just think of the fashion that goes along side it. It's time to layer up and pile on the accessories-this is extremely exciting.







I love this outfit due to the different textures and beautiful platform boots. By keeping the outfit pretty much black, it meant that the pink bag and electric blue necklace really stood out. By adding a bowler hat I have given it a more unique look and the platform boots make it on season but also take the outfit away from a casual feel. I have taken a different approach with this blog by adding more pictures (which may I say, were so much fun to feature in) and I have gone down the more creative writing route. I hope you have enjoyed.
