For me it's ankle boots even though it will mean hiding the seven pairs of calf boots I have from my husband.

Am looking forward to wearing my Uniqlo grey skinny cords and Marc by Marc merlot coloured Fran bag

Also digging out my red Tommy Hilfiger duffle coat, will be its third year but I LOVE IT Smile

I bought leopard skinnies from Primarni £13, thank you "does my bum look 40 in this"! I have nice suede brown cowboy ish books from Clarks with a short heel that are so comfy and flattering. But I must have these now DH will go mad....I have 8 one of two pairs of brown boots.

I have a chocolate brown coat in that very shape from the Zara sale last year £17!! Bargain. Looking forward to wearing that again.

I have white Nike hightops, with dark indigo skinnies from whistles and a couple of slouchy jumpers in charcoal and navy.

I want a couple of new dresses....and of course some lovely thick wooly tights.

PlumSykes · 17/08/2012 23:19

I fancy this coat for casual Autumn days.

CHOOGIRL · 17/08/2012 23:20

MrsCB do you still have your WhiteCo cape? I've never worn mine so glad it will be still on trend in AW.

I'm looking forward to berry colours too. Have got a lovely Joseph dress and am on waiting list for some Plum Louboutin Simple pumps.

MrsCampbellBlack · 17/08/2012 23:25

I do Choo - but hardly ever wear it. Will dig it out again though.

PlumSykes · 17/08/2012 23:30

Have just remembered last year's curly shearling gilet. He will be getting an airing again soon, I think. Baaa!

InspiredToBoot · 17/08/2012 23:35

Oh, another thing I have, as I usually wear all blacks and greys, a selection of these babies in brighter colours: imgfave.com/view/1948898

good point about ankle flappage and footwear marsha

MarshaBrady · 17/08/2012 23:53

Aww don't be deflated. There's got to be a way. Wear it with a delicate ankle boot. What do people wear with straight leg jeans... My brain hurts right now but will think about it Grin

HoopDePoop · 17/08/2012 23:58

Err Tesco have some lush leopard brown / auberginey skinny jeans! Picked them up about 5 times and put them back, dammit, noone would know...?!

blue2711 · 18/08/2012 00:40

Where are your leather leggings from mrscb? I was going to try Zara's but I think you said no good.

mrsR I have seen lovely leather skirts in Reiss and the new Isabella Oliver Baukjen thingy. Will link tomorrow if you're interested.

BelaLug0si · 18/08/2012 00:51

Leather leggings links no I'm not the sellers, just easier to link to the thread Smile

FauxFox · 18/08/2012 07:49

InStyle mag informed me that gloves would be in for a/w and strangely I found that quite exciting...all sorts of gloves, long, coloured, studded leather etc. In my mind I am seeing some kind of short sleeved dress with long gloves (either knitted for day or satin/velvet/something else?? for eve)...am mulling it over Smile

Also apparently blue is a big colour trend and I love that so that'll be easy.

I am also looking forward to wearing my new TK Maxx bargain Feud grey suede over the knee boots these but in dove grey (£38!!!) I know they are not for everyone but I love them so much! Will wear with opaques and slouchy knitted dresses and over skinny jeans too.

MrsCampbellBlack · 18/08/2012 07:51

Blue - they're the ones you linked to Smile With discount of course. Was going to let you know that I think that the 6 would be too big for you as fit me well and I'm larger than you. They are really gorgeous though - would be worth you seeing if they do a size 4.

Coprolite · 18/08/2012 07:58

I'm looking forward to my hooded poncho-y cape thingie and desperately want some dark green or similar earthy colour cord leggings (but where from at >>>£)

frankie76 · 18/08/2012 08:00

Amber them high tops are lovely I am gutted at 36 which is not too old by the way I have the black ones and now all the new colours come out :-(

AmberNectarine · 18/08/2012 08:07

Yay, someone likes my high tops! Woo hoo!

Also want a cobalt glittery knit from Maje, brogue ankle boots from R&B and star print jeans from Current Elliott. Also on the lookout for perfect black skinnies.

marsha your fantasy Celine look is so gorgeous it makes me want to cry. Mini Luggage a stiff contender for dream bag.

CountBapula · 18/08/2012 08:34

Dying to get this zebra-print sweater but will have to wait for the sale, I reckon. Would look fab with those Uniqlo cords someone linked to upthread.

I spotted this frock in the window of Aubin & Wills and instantly fell in love with it. Told DH about it later and he'd seen the exact same one and thought it would look nice on me. A few days later he went out and bought it for me! I was a bit Shock as it's pretty £££ and we're not rich, but I'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth Wink Can't wait to wear it when it gets a bit cooler. Would look fab with those Isabel Marant knock-off ankle boots New Look are doing.

MarshaBrady · 18/08/2012 08:38

Amber I know, isn't it gorgeous. I can just picture my life with that, on pretty tree-lined street hmm Paris maybe. Children playing prettily somewhere.

Yes get the lovely Maje. Fab list.

Gorgeous dress Countbapula, well done dh!

MarshaBrady · 18/08/2012 08:39

And like the zebra one too.

AmberNectarine · 18/08/2012 08:46

Oh I love that zebra jumper, that is getting pinned!

MrsRyanLochte · 18/08/2012 10:08

Thanks blue have checked out Reiss, I LOVE the leather pencil and I could get away with it for work I would (but can't sadly). I really like the IO one (what's with the Baukjen thing? I don't understand what was wrong with IO 365?), good length. Was perhaps looking for a charcoal rather than black and maybe in skater style or tulip shape for more flattering fit. I have the perfect imaginary one in my head, just need to find it!

I quite like this style skirt too.

InspiredToBoot · 18/08/2012 10:18

I am loving your ideas. That dress is stunning!

What about scarves? I've seen an amazing selections of animal print scarves in Massimo Dutti and I just don't know which one to go for!

I like this scarf best.

MrsRyanLochte · 18/08/2012 10:22

Beautiful scarves inspired - may have to purchase but agree, very difficult to pick just one!
