I love this time of year… yes, partly because the trees look gorgeous as their leaves turn brown and flutter to the floor (for me to inevitably slip and go flying on!) but MAINLY because… new season: new wardrobe!
Oh yes, it may be confusing when one day the weather decides to attempt to turn you to ice and the very next day the sun is beating down but in a true fashionista’s eyes this is a prime opportunity to flaunt your favourite Autumn pieces for the world to see and even a few summery ones with some added layers to keep you comfortable whatever the temperature. This time I want to show you some of my favourite seasonal trends to help you get into your own fashion zone and make heads turn.
First up: check print. Oh my gosh, check print is everywhere this season and I’m loving it! I prefer something with a pop of colour when it comes to this trend and so I loved teaming my red check shirt with my trusty white canvas shoes. I wear with a pair of mid wash skinny jeans for a fun and flirty vibe.
Next on the check print checklist are accessories. Cosy blanket scarves are a season must have and compliment many looks. I like to team mine with a neutral coloured skirt and over knee boots to keep me warm on chilly days. These boots have a perfect heel height for a feminine day time look whilst keeping you comfortable! If it’s looking a bit grey and rainy outside and knowing how my hair can often resemble that of Monica Gellar on a hot day (‘It’s the humidity!’) I complete my look with a black or camel shade fedora hat to keep my locks under control whilst upping the impact on one of my favourite season looks.
My new obsession is cold shoulder fashion. I love how versatile a cold shoulder top or jumper is and will often them dress up or down dependant on how I’m feeling that day. I found these little beauties in the Deichmann AW15 collection and they fast became my favourite flats. If you spend a lot of time on your feet you will appreciate that sometimes heels are just not manageable which is why these are the perfect solution! Adorned with feminine bling and with the cutest pointed toe, I can breeze around all day without a pesky blister in sight and still have a perfect girly edge to my outfit.
Finally, the heels. The print on these shoes is amazing and they’ve definitely taken the limelight from all of my other heels for now at least. Because of the autumnal colours used I love teaming these with any colour of skinny jeans and a plain-ish top to make them the focus of my outfit. Perfect to slip on for a meal out, drinks with the girls or even to pair with your office power outfit, a pair of bold print heels need to be living in your wardrobe. I’ll let you in on a secret too, these are soooo comfortable! Don’t be fooled by the heel height, you should all know by now what a fan I am of foot friendly fashion!
So this Autumn have fun playing around with the fantastic colours of the season, don’t forget to layer up, accessorise and put your best foot forward with these perfect fashion fixes.
