so what are we going to be wearing this Autumn?

[QueenMaeve]

I quite liked the peep of brocade type stuff, cant remember whose show it was, in one of the sunday mags. I am sick of this weather and want to fantasize about boots and chunky tights.

I think I will be going for skinnys in rich muted colours such as petrol blue, raspberry and bottle green. Wearing with heeled ankle boots. Liking some over sized knits I have seen. And hoping to save enough pennies for a Mulberry effie satchel

I've really gone off tights for the first time in my life, and because I favour skirts to pants I am going to have a difficult time of it this autumn..

I'm wondering if bare legs to knee skirts might work - think tweed skirt and a nice fitting cashmere jumper worn with flats, etc. I really hate how jeans fit me so it's kind of a pain.

Definitely want a navy faux fur hooded parka, ankle boots if I have to wear jeans, and several decent jumpers. Thinking navy, light grey and burgundy, and a gorgeous purple scarf.

I'm ok for bags and have the perfect trench (saved up forever to afford it after years of dreaming) though, so that's one good thing.

Shoes: I want something with a mid heel, would work both casual and dressy but not stiletto. This one's tricky.
Would love to wear oversized knits with jeans but finding the right jeans is the problem.

I am a mixed bag of wardrobe WTF-ery, obviously..

Brocade meh.
I'm after the oasis leopard coat.
Green cords from uniqlo.

Windsock - burgundy cords from Uniqlo arrived this morning and are great. Really nice fit for me.

Size up pr down

Everything slim and tailored no drapes! Cos has beautiful things atm.

Loafers. Have ordered the next ones with also. Leopard print. Hmm

Tried the zara zip coat and its lovely had to order another size though.

love these with black jumper and heels. Didn't see in shop though

Ivevdecided I don't like vivid print trousers. They so teeter on sloane

The bright blue cost nod? Are you size xxxxxxl

Oh god not sloane at all here! They are v flattering for some reason. The coat is black

Size down in the cords.

I have several cords too skinnies from zara old but still ok.

Meggles that sounds perfect.
Have never tried uniqlo trousers, are they proper skinny? I have chicken legs

nice coat

That is a nice coat noddy.
What do you think of this Hobbs coat? I like it. My sister tells me it's shapeless. I need a new coat.

I love it!

Are midi skirts still in? Or should I stop at knee? Legs too ropey to go any shorter...

I'll have to try it. Mango have had a few nice things recently.

lurking I like that coat,would the tie waist be flattering? I know on me things like that don't suit, they make me look very bulgy around the hips

I quite like the idea of skinny cords, a new jumper and a peacoat.

And ankle boots.

Atm.

No. Tie waist or belted things disaster here.

Oh ha a wonder around the shops yesterday- really liked cos and maje new stock and spotted a lovely bottle green knitted dress in Sandro,
Ok for a coat and have lovely new skinnies in burgundy and bottle green
Really want acne/ ash boots but will probably settle for topshopalike instead
Have a brocade skirt I m hoping to resurrect

I'll be in thick opaque tights with knit dresses and ankle boots or skinny jeans with long scarves, knee high boots and a smart trench/jacket. I like neutral tones like greens and browns mixed with jewel brights. I hate fluro or anything too garish.

Accessories will be lots of cross jewellery or skull bits to toughen up a smart casual look.
