I can't believe it's September already! It feels like only yesterday I was pulling out my summer clothes and putting my boots and coats away. It's been much colder these last couple of days, and any normal person would moan about the transition towards the colder and darker months; but autumn is my favourite time of year, and it's mostly because of the clothes! I absolutely love the knitwear, the boots and the colours (burgundy especially)! This time of year always brings the inevitable lusting after all the gorgeous new clothes! I find that when I do buy clothes (as opposed to gazing longingly at them with my face shoved up against the shop window and tears in my eyes), I always come home with such a mismatch of colours and styles that in the end I need to buy more to actually make outfits! So, what I have resolved myself to doing is to look online first to see what I like and put them into outfits so that I can incorporate them into my wardrobe at minimal extra cost!!
I have put together four outfits that I absolutely love with pieces that, I think, will go with almost anything. The first two are smart casual, the third is casual but stylish, and the fourth is dressy! I hope you like them, I have put the links for each item under the picture in case you see something you like!
If there is anything that would be my "go-to" outfit, it's a white jumper, black jeans and leopard print shoes! I love the neckline on this jumper and the print on the shoes is similar to leopard print but still quite unique. I've paired all this with a gorgeous camel waistcoat, a suede burgundy bag and a peach coloured, long pendant necklace.
I actually already have the knitted roll-neck vest (it feels so soft by the way) and I was looking for something to pair it with. This is inspired by an outfit I saw Pippa O'Connor wearing on snapchat. I love the fringing on the boots, the snake print clutch and I think that the sky-blue nail varnish is a nice touch to brighten up the whole thing. The bracelet is Swarovski but is really good value for something that can go with any outfit casual or dressy, and it's so sparkly!!
When I want to wear something that's comfortable and casual I always feel like I look like noone's child! I find it can be quite hard to make something look really stylish and still be comfortable. I love the combination of stripes and leopard print, and I am mad about this Glitz and Pieces statement necklace.
This next outfit is more "in my dreams" as the shoes, bag and coat are quite expensive! But, I think that if you're going to buy something like a camel coat, a black clutch or a pair of nude patent shoes that will never go out of style and that will be worn again and again (not some madly expensive thing that you'll only wear once and is gone out of fashion two months after you buy it), then it is worth spending to get a good quality item, rather than buying cheap and buying twice!
I hope you liked the outfits I've put together...now I just need to find someone who wants to buy them all for me!!
