Pointy boots, or biker boots.

Some lovely mustard and teal jumpers.

Oh and burgundy brogues.

MilkThistle187 · 05/09/2014 20:39

Mmm, good list, there is a lot of burgundy around this year. I'm not sure if it suits me, I must try something on.

Black leather skirt
Black suede courts (poss LK BEnnet Florettes)
Black ankle boots with a flat heel (have seen in R and b)

I want some long boots but I need something I can drive in and walk in so maybe not.

I love jumpers , I bought a couple (pale pink and raspberry pink) from Primark and a putty one from H&M

I need some new leggings , I bought some M&S corded ones last year so maybe another colour.

Gloves (I'm hoping for a proper winter this year)

I have a cape, at the moment I'm taking the fur off and tidying the hems.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 06/09/2014 00:22

Chunky knit in mustard / winter lime shade.
Leopard print clutch bag for xmas parties.
Grey collarless wool coat.
Oversize tartan scarf in berry and pink shades.
Pointy heeled boots in berry shade (spied in Next)

SageYourResoluteOracle · 06/09/2014 06:31

A wool coat but haven't decided which yet.
And another one for burgundy brogues... see old thread re navy and whether it's classy or not. Well these are technically things I need.

But you lot have now infiltrated my inner thoughts and planted soft scarf/ beautiful boots/ marvellous Mulberry acorns of ideas that there's MUCH more I should buy this A/W... Gah!

HolgerDanske · 06/09/2014 08:35

Yes I would love a mulberry in oxblood and one in navy (not sure which bags yet) but alas my budget only stretches to one at a time and I want the tote first. Will be buying it in black this year and in oak next year.

Gusthetheatrecat · 06/09/2014 08:39

Ooooh! I already HAVE burgundy brogues from last year! preens
I want to get some nice ankle boots. I am a big believer in ankle boots. I bought some 2 yrs ago when I was just post partum and feeling grumpy, and whenever i put them on they made me feel better.

lordnoobson · 06/09/2014 08:39

Love those boots too Ebo

lordnoobson · 06/09/2014 08:43

The becksondergaard scarves. (But only the wool ones note. )A few on asos. Use the code get15 to get reduction

Itscurtainsforyou · 06/09/2014 08:44

I'm desperately trying not to buy anything, but burgundy/oxblood really suits me and I want to make the most of there being lots of it about! If I only buy 1-2 things in this colour, what should they be?

lordnoobson · 06/09/2014 08:51

Leather chaps and. Love egg

Greenstone · 06/09/2014 09:00

Can I ask what people think of the pointy shiny ankle boots as worn by Cara Delthingy on the Topshop site? I know they are out of stock but are they ? Can't decide if the heel is potentially twee.

HolgerDanske · 06/09/2014 09:37

Ohh no not more becksondergaard scarves in the sale! I have a serious weakness for them. Must not look.

HolgerDanske · 06/09/2014 09:37

Have you got a link, greenstone?

Eliza22 · 06/09/2014 09:42

A wool cocoon coat in deep cream or camel (to replace one I've had years and which has had it). Can't find one though. Paid £600 about 12 years ago for mine and still get asked where it's from but the cuffs are now going a bit threadbare. Sad

BuildersTea · 06/09/2014 10:06

I recently ordered some complete bargains from the Great Plains clearance section:

A raspberry pink/black tweedy mini for £12.50
A military style tailored flannel jacket for £26.50

Love them both.

I've also bought heeled brogues in oxblood from Clarks (so comfortable and look great on).

A tea dress from Primark (cheap, cheerful & I bought one last year in the same style that fitted me really well & is still going strong)

A plain cotton cardi in dark mossy green from H&M (want the mustard yellow one too).

Awks · 07/09/2014 17:23

black wool trousers
tan loafers or brogues
tan leather big bag
red bobble hat (I LOVE bobble hats)

Madaboutthrows · 07/09/2014 20:34

Wool Becksondergaard scarf that I couldn't bring myself to buy in my recent AW shopping spree

HolgerDanske · 07/09/2014 20:37

HolgerDanske · 07/09/2014 20:38
