Autumn/Fall Style Inspiration

  As we get near the end of September, the weather gets cooler and cardigans, beanies, scarves and tights come out to play during the colder, darker months. Living in a tropical country with only 2 seasons (wet & dry), I've always been slightly jealous of those bloggers in the northern hemisphere that are able to snuggle up in cosy sweaters and partake in the art of fashion we call 'layering'. But since this year is the first year that I'll be in the UK for autumn and winter, I must say that I am beyond excited to be able to jump on that bandwagon - I've already started preparing by buying tons of sweaters in my latest August Haul.


  When it comes to fashion/style inspiration, Pinterest  is my absolute favourite. So for those of you that are unsure of how to/what is layering or how to wear that new coat/boots of yours...this will be extremely handy ;)



1. Leather is literally the material for fall if you want that edgy yet chic look
2. Scarf, beanie and trench coat? Check.
3. Pair one of those chunky, oversized 'sweater dresses' with knee high boots for the laidback and casual look whilst running errands
4. Think maxi skirts are reserved for the summer? Think again.





4. When transitioning from summer to fall, layer a sweater over your favourite dress and...voila. Instant sophistication.
5. Don't store your shorts away during these colder months - instead, wear them with cosy tights and you're good to go
6. The layering trick that makes anyone look good with a preppy flair - layer your favourite sweater over your favourite plaid shirt. Never underestimate the power of plaid prints.
7. Take layering to a whole new level by wearing a cardigan over your dress and belting it together!


Hope this post has been useful in helping you gain some inspiration on what to wear as the leaves changes colour and temperatures drop!

A/W Wishlist Week #3 // Accessories Galore


What outfit is ever complete without accessories?


Grey and coral in my opinion, is one of the best colour combinations! What better way to combine them than in a warm, cosy hat?


I've been loving statement necklaces lately and this is no exception! The large gems and chunky style of this necklace is just to dress up any outfit.


Sometimes, simplicity is key and all you need is a pop of colour! I love the bright red colour of this one and it's great for those bad hair days too!


If you want to change an outfit, a scarf is by far the easiest option. There are tons of designs and styles to choose from depending on what you're wearing and I'm loving the blend of colours in this one! Reminds me of the sunset (:

5. Blue Solitaire Diamond Stud Earrings

These earrings are from the diamond earrings collection at My Jewelry Box and they are gorgeous. The bright teal colour will instantly glam up your attire and definitely be the center of attention! Pair this with an outfit of neutrals and you're good to go!

What is your favourite autumn accessory?

A/W Wishlist Week #2 // Tartan All Over


There is no doubt that tartan is one of the hottest trend in this year's A/W. So here are some of my ultimate favourites - and they're not all your standard red tartan either!



Especially since the weather is getting cooler, this is a great transitioning piece! Looks stylish AND keeps you warm and comfy. Although a bit on the steep side, I believe it can be worn on many occasions every year so it's worth the investment (:



Something different from the normal red tartan which means that this gives you a unique preppy look without going overboard. This will go well with anything!



Pair it with tights or just wear it on its own, this pair of plaid denim shorts will add a pop of colour in the fall!


4. Red Tartan Peplum Top£12.50

You can never go wrong with peplum and this tartan design is gorgeous! There are endless possibilities to pair it with for a sophisticated chic look.


5. Backpack in Tartan£28

Start the school year with a new tartan backpack or have it with you around town. 



Who says you can't wear dresses during autumn? Tartan is definitely a staple print this season and you can dress this dress (haha, geddit?) up or down depending on your occasion! At that price, it's a bargain!

What is your favourite tartan piece?

A/W Wishlist Week #1 // Sweater Weather

Since it's A/W and in conjunction with the numerous fashion weeks going on, I've decided to make this week, 'A Week of A/W Wishlists' where I scour the world wide web for great finds to amp up your autumn/winter wardrobe (: 

First up, sweaters. They're the first thing that comes into my mind when I think of autumn/winter. So cozy and warm! Guess what guys, it's sweater weather! 


1. Ebay - £3.99

This is probably my favourite out of the bunch. It may not be considered a sweater as it's not woolly and maybe not keep you the warmest...but I love it! The mix of leather makes this very unique and can be worn on warmer days too. And at the price? It's hard to say no.


2. Ebay£6.99

The standard chunky knit sweater - but that doesn't mean it's boring. The best thing about knits is that you can wear it with anything - skirts, jeans...or even sweatpants when you're lazing around. Although I'm loving burgundy as a autumn/fall colour, the seller has loads more to choose from!


3. ASOS£38

What caught my eye was definitely the sleeves - it's floral! How can anyone not like that! I love the blend of colours and it's just something unique


4. River Island£22

I'm personally not a cat person, but this sweater is just purrrr-fect (haha, get the pun?)


5. Zalando£35

There's something about things with batman logo on them that makes me want to get them! Grey is a super versatile colour to have in your wardrobe and the batman symbol is kinda cool (Y)


6. Ebay£8.49

A more loosely knit sweater - definitely loving the more feminine pastel colours and as this is oversized, it's great to chuck on whenever for that casual look.

Which one's your favourite? What would you like to see next on the A/W Wishlist Week?
