It's darling...

 

Bag: Liibeca by Joy Gryson

 

How lovely is this little blue bag?! I really want to start incorporating more navies and blues into my wardrobe for autumn/winter as I always think it looks classy and tasteful whatever you wear it with.

 

What do you think?

Jumpsuit: Whistles

I need to get me some jumpsuits! I think they are going to be pretty big for AW14 - definitely going to have to put together an inspiration board or something because I am seeing these everywhere!

What do you think? Not sure I'm all enough to pull on off...

Asos AW14 Trend

Jacket: River Island at ASOS c/o

Top: River Island at ASOS c/o

Trousers: Topshop

Shoes: Adidas Superstar 2.0

It's really time to start thinking about Autumn but needless to say it needs to be done. I've teamed up ASOS and River Island to take part in their Autumn Trend Guide showcasing this seasons but must trends.  I grew up in the nineties so it's not surprising that I take a lot of influence from this decade - it's also no secret that I love my Adidas trainers so they will definitely be following me into Fall! This look for me hints towards 90s normcore with a modern twist and is my take on a growing trend. This jacket is also the most comfortable thing ever!

It's Darling

 

Sweater: ACNE

 

This sweater is top of my list for Autumn/Winter I cannot wait to get my hands on it! I'm very tempted to buy it now but I will be patient (I may live to regret this), it's not quite that time yet - it's still very hot weather.

Bat and Bowl

Jumper: Next (similar here, here)

Culottes: Topshop

Shoes: Superga

Sunglasses: Rayban

Right let's get it out there, I know this look is weird - I completely get that but I had fun with it mixing two/three (??) trends into one. So there's the culottes (tick), the cricket jumper (tick), oversized sweater with flippy bottoms (tick)! I don't know why I feel I have to justify this look but here I am doing it anyway. I like it, it's comfortable and totally got me some weird stares (but who cares right?!).

So following on from yesterday's post, the cricket jumper I think is set to be a big trend for AW14 - it's a great transitional piece into the new season and helps me prolong letting go of summer. I am definitely craving the Rag and Bone one but don't think I can a) justify it and b) get hold of one even if I could! (although I found a really cool alternative here).

What do you think?

Slick Rick

Jumper: French Connection

Trousers: Topshop

Shoes: Jimmy Choo

Bracelet: Topshop

Bag: Rebecca Minkoff

I work in an office and am constantly trying to think of ideas to wear - I love my trainers and lose fit t-shirts which don't always go down so well. So as we move into Autumn I am determined to smarten things up a bit - starting with this beautiful French Connection sweater. I think I can get away with it at work don't you?

Minimalist Whites

Sweater: Topshop

Culottes: Topshop

Shoes: Aldo

Bag: Whistles

Bracelet: Eddie Borgo

RIGHT. It's coming towards the end of August now so it's time to start thinking about AW14 (Ok, I probably should have started thinking a little before now). I've been compiling my wish lists and I have sweaters sweaters sweaters on the brain! I've already got a few in mind, so I'm looking forward to putting them up on the blog soon.

For the coming season I really want to incorporate the summer culottes trend - I just don't feel I made the most of it and will therefore make the upmost effort to carry on wearing them for as long as winter allows!

What are your Fall wardrobe plans - any trends standing out for you?
