HoC Autumns 2 - the marvelousness continues......

[ASmittenKitten]

Only the best thread in S & B to talk all things Autumn.

If that link to the cords isn't working for anyone else, I've just found them in the sale>trousers section.

Who wants a cream blouse? Uniqlo have them in now (100% silk) for £40. The 'off white' is a lovely cream.

I'm so excited, I just bought my first ever set of scarves. My DH is in shock.

Not a terrific photo, though.

that link for the cords just says bad request????

which store? i'll find them....

it's fine i found them

hopefully have you tried the John Smedley sale? I got the spring summer 14 swatch colour card - he has loads of autumn colours - I know outside sale prices are high but often the autumn colours are the last to go in the sale.

How odd, the link works perfectly for me .

Congrats on the scarves, lougle.

Thanks They were a complete bargain - £12.96 for all four.

Hopefully really sorry to intrude but was wondering if you'd be kind enough to pop over to the Spring thread for a moment to shed some light on a quandary about contrast?
Sorry Autumns, didn't know where else to ask

Lovely scarves!

Thank you, Hopefully

They were really cheap from store21, but brilliant for someone new to the whole thing.

I am living in this infinity scarf in paprika at the minute. Makes my skin tone look lovely, and means I can leave the heating off for longer. Win win!

That's lovely, Hopefully - it's the colour of my brown scarf.

I love this tutorial video.

Thanks charity girl. Thaw uniqlo blouse looks promising though think I am after one with a little bit more detail (pockets perhaps). Might get it to try.

Thought merge! I meant: Your scarf is lovely, and the one the model is wearing is the colour of my brown scarf.

I bought THIS today. I don't think strictly speaking it is a true autumn but it is close enough. I'm a deep autumn and I have to say it looks bloody amazing on!!!

Looks like a good one for toning in with autumn colours supa.

I am eagerly anticipating a work payment tomorrow so I can order new boots.

woah! hopefully sparkerly

Really found that blog helpful supa - thanks!

And I luff the boots Hopefully! No Monday blues possible in them!

Btw women, anyone got any good suggestions for Autumn casual trews that are not skinny cut? I really love the petrol cords but fear that on my pear shape they will not be flattering... I need to minimise thighs which are on the thundery side! Been looking for dark olive, chocolate, aubergine cords, moleskin maybe?

Ocelot I have no suggestions but hope to be looking for similar trousers once I have lost a bit more weight. I will let you know if I see any. I seem to be doing a lot of browsing at the moment.

Although I bought this cardigan in cinnabar after taking advice from posters on this thread, I also got it in this colour, which I hope is apple jade, one of my two star colours.

Lovely cardi seri! I have just done the same - it was only a stone but enough to make most clothes I had far too big. I was adamant I was only going to buy clothes that actually suit me from now on. It is a lot of fun, but also takes quite a lot of work - browsing, as you say, and sending heaps of stuff back to mail order firms. Good luck wuth your weight loss and I hope you enjoy building a wardrobe of clothes you feel fab in!

I am v looking forward to the boots. Not the most practical, but I love them!

Seri that looks like a pretty good match for apple jade actually, well done! I find it really hard to find.

I'll be on a trousers mission later in the year - I am making do with whatever I have in various sizes to get through the immediate post natal period. I quite like the look of the new cuts in Topshop, and they have a dark plum and a forest colour in a few of the cuts. They're a fraction dark, but pretty good as an alternative to denim blue/black without standing out much like brighter coloured jeans do.

Emo if you need a cheap interim shirt, this topshop one looks nice.
