For many people the changing of seasons from summer to winter can be a great excuse for a little wardrobe revamp...bring on the cosy clothes! Lighthouse Clothing would love you to share your favourite pieces from their site, as well as telling us a special memory you have of the outdoors.

Here’s what Lighthouse Clothing has to say: “Lighthouse Clothing is a purpose led brand, committed to creating well crafted clothing with a strong sense of style. Our coastal leisurewear collections give a strong nod to the nautical, as we celebrate our love for the coast and simple island living.

^Based in Belfast and born from the philosophy that the most memorable moments in life are often the simplest ones. We encourage the wanderer and sea lover in us all to step outside and embrace those unhurried moments, shared with those who matter.
Our design team research everything from new materials to trending styles. New fabrics are tested and developed to improve style and function. Each design is refined, each colour palette is considered and in the end when each garment has been perfected, it is added to our collection.”^

Which items do you love the look of and why? Take a look at their website and post the link of your favourites on the thread below.

We would also love you to share a special memory and/or moment you experienced in the outdoors. Did you have a special first date strolling along the beach? Perhaps you and your family had a great day out exploring the outdoors? Or maybe it’s simply that you have great memories of going for a walk on your own to help you relax?

Whichever your favourite items are, post them on the thread below and tell us a special outdoor memory and you’ll be entered into a prize draw where two MNers will win a £150 Lighthouse voucher and one MNer will win a £300 voucher of their choice (from a list).

Thanks and good luck!

I really like this style of top as it flatters my body shape and feels 'smarter' than a plain too or t-shirt.

My favourite outdoor memory is fairly recent, and pretty simple - DP, me and the 2DC's going to the park in the summer evenings and having a picnic on the hill.

Love this one, in fact I would gladly wear this outfit , and have just seen there is a woman's dress that is similar.

Also really like the look of this jacket, be perfect for all the school runs it and it looks great too.

We love going for walks along the beach on the coast when we can at weekend or to National trust gardens and properties. One of our favourite days out was to a beach where the seals came up really close and it was amazing to see them all and so close up.

I love this:
www.lighthouseclothing.co.uk/products/outback-waterproof-full-length-raincoat-plum
There was a thread recently here about depression and the futility of life and so many posters cited being warm in bracing weather as a real joie de vie, it was quite striking!
Like many pps I have many memories of stunning scenery and long walks but 2 of my most vivid walks were urban!
One Christmas, a good 20 years ago, before the wheel and before it was popular we took a brave if toddlers and assorted aged relatives out for a post Christmas Day lunch walk along the South Bank. We were the only ones around, there were a scant few blue fairy light in the trees and it was so quiet you could hear the lapping on the Thames.
I walk my dog daily in a beautiful London park, it’s usually very busy but I remember one cold Tuesday morning there were only a couple of dog walkers and toddler wranglers, the sun was low and I could see horizontal spider trails over the misty meadows. It felt surreally rural!

I like this because I’m always keen to add to my repertoire of Breton tops and the colours on this are super.
We love the outdoors and this year went to the Edinburgh Festival with our DS. We had a great time exploring and climbing the hills.

Love this denim dress! Perfect for autumn.

Although I'm not sure I;d wear it with a bobble hat.

The Ravel coat in Plum is my favourite as it is waterproof and cosy at the same time, without looking heavy: www.lighthouseclothing.co.uk/collections/new-in/products/raven-warm-fleece-lined-waterproof-coat-plum
Love most of the plum stuff, tbh - top autumn colour!

ManicGirl · 30/09/2018 19:03

I'd choose this. Perfect for work but still looks comfy and colourful. www.lighthouseclothing.co.uk/collections/womens-new-in/products/causeway-long-sleeve-breton-top-jazzberry-dot
My favourite outdoor memory was rock pooling this summer with my husband and 2 children in Scotland. We found crabs and even jellyfish and the kids didn't want to leave, despite the fact it was absolutely freezing!

FreshEyre · 30/09/2018 21:38

I love the look of the Raven coat - perfect for watching DC play sport in the Winter.

Favourite outdoor memories... probably camping. Waking up early and sitting outside the tent wrapped in a blanket with a cuppa while everything is still quiet.

BlackeyedPetitsPois · 30/09/2018 22:27

I love this for me: www.lighthouseclothing.co.uk/collections/womens-dresses-tunics/products/anna-cotton-dress-washed-denim?variant=8238784741422

This for my husband: www.lighthouseclothing.co.uk/collections/mens-coats-jackets/products/islander-cotton-hooded-waterproof-jacket-hunter

And this for my two daughters: www.lighthouseclothing.co.uk/collections/girls-coats-jackets/products/amelia-waterproof-fleece-lined-coat-raindrop-print

My favourite outdoor memory is last Winter we took a walk in the woods which we are lucky to have just behind our house. It was very crisp and frosty and the Woods were stunning. My girls had an amazing time and their faces were pink with the cold and full of smiles. Priceless.

Wow, I love this rain jacket - so hard to find one that is of suitable length to really protect against the UK climate! www.lighthouseclothing.co.uk/collections/womens-raincoats-jackets/products/outback-full-length-waterproof-raincoat-deep-sea

My favourite memory is a family holiday in Cornwall about 3 years ago. Just spending time together, beach-combing, exploring, camping out with friends and stargazing. All food for the soul!

www.lighthouseclothing.co.uk/collections/new-in/products/hannah-beanie-bobble-hat-plum-jazzberry This looks really cosy and I love the colour!
Favourite outdoor memory is my kids splashing in puddles when they were little, loved their little welly boots!

This coat would be ideal for me as it would keep me dry and warm when I'm out and about in my wheelchair.

I have so many happy memories of being outside with my family, the one that always brings a smile to my face is, not long after our foster son move in with us, we had a really heavy snow fall, the looks of shear joy on his face when we all went outside to play in the snow (this was before my stroke ).
