Autumnal Accessories

Transitioning wardrobe styles seasonally can always be a bit of a minefield. There have been mornings where I’ve left the house wearing what can only be described as a shearling duvet only to realise that in fact, 18 degrees ain’t that cold. At the same time I’ve left the house at 8am with nothing but a jumper on and wondered how long it would be before my hair began turning white and icicles appearing at the end of my nose (ever the drama queen, I know).

But, determined to get the last wear out of some summer favourites whilst I can (read: before I have to layer everything with something wooly) I bared my ankles, pulled out a long-serving broderie blouse and embraced the fun side of Autumn dressing (sans rain-macs and inside out umbrellas that is)…

And! Let’s talk about these shoes too. Having been obsessed with these eighties style-shoe shapes for a while, with anything suede and bell heeled being an ultimate selling point- you can imagine my joy when I spotted these on the website. Add in the fact they’re not too dissimilar from styles I’ve seen on sites like By Far (sans the price tag) and we have ourselves a winner. I’m not totally sold on the kitten heel or sock boot just yet (no matter how many times I have to see all three members of Haim wearing them), but give me a few months and you never know what might happen…
