I look forward to September and the change in weather move to autumny clothes.... I don't know why but I really, really fancy some super leather cowboy boots... plus pinafore dresses :)

I’m really liking tortoiseshell at the moment, I’d like a large cuff. I’m glad you’re pleased with most of your stuff, if you do want leather crossbody bags the ones linked earlier are really nice (I have quite a collection now)

Still hot, still not worn my trench yet. Still pondering boots.

I got some tortoiseshell earrings and bracelets earlier in the year, and have worn them a lot. Eaarings

Bracelets

Love the sound of a cuff.

I will be wearing this dress from topshop all autumn! It just arrived from my online order and I think it might be my favourite purchase ever

That dress is gorgeous Girlinajumpsuit just a little dramatic which I love.

Thing is Remus sometimes I really want something, picture it in my mind but it doesn’t necessarily exist if you see what I mean.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 28/08/2019 20:19

LW - I very much know that feeling!

Nice dress, Girl.

I was looking at this dress briefly today. Couldn't decide if it was great or utterly bonkers. It reminded me a lot of a party dress I had as a kid in the 70s, when we all wore long dresses to birthday parties!

LuxuryWoman2018 · 28/08/2019 21:20

Found the perfect cuff, it's £95 from Aspinall though, I need a version of £20 or less.

Sigh81 · 28/08/2019 21:40

@luxurywoman2018 I also have a tortoiseshell jewellery thing going on - have been so happy that it is "in" this/last season. Have you checked out Hobbs? Each season they do something beautiful in tortoiseshell.

Also, there is this from Jaeger atm www.jaeger.co.uk/wide-tortoiseshell-cuff-e86da6?utm_source=bybuybye&utm_medium=css&utm_campaign=nmpi&utm_term=generic&utm_content=generic&gclsrc=aw.ds&

LuxuryWoman2018 · 28/08/2019 21:45

That's really nice sigh definate contender. Really can't have the Aspinal one but I like the hinge.

happytobemrsg · 28/08/2019 22:05

I love tortoiseshell too. I wear it with everything & weirdly I love it with black. Got a few pairs of tortoiseshell earrings & wear them a lot. Think I’ll wear my &OS ones tomorrow.

Decided to keep the leopard print jumper ❤️ I love it so I’ll just make it work!

Love the beige poncho I bought from H&M (I mentioned it up thread). Considering buying the black version at £15 it would be rude not to

EnidButton · 29/08/2019 01:35

Remus There's a lot of things around with a 70's vibe atm. I don't know if it's because of midi dresses being popular or all the browns but definitely 70's. I quite like that dress but think it's one you have to try on before you know.

Sezane have a few things in their preview look books that I really like. Don't like their prices Grin but might order a couple of things to try when it's all out.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 29/08/2019 07:39

Enid - I agree! I'm pretty sure it would be appalling on me, but I remain weirdly drawn to it. And it's cotton, which adds substantially to its appeal. Will try it on and report back.

LuxuryWoman2018 · 29/08/2019 13:06

I’m now thinking ponchos. I’m not as mature but I really like people like Patti Hansen and that kind of rich hippy rock vibe.

LuxuryWoman2018 · 29/08/2019 17:47

Yay, found a tortoise shell cuff in topshop £6 Smile

happytobemrsg · 30/08/2019 00:07

Ordered the black poncho. I’ve got loads of outfits on my Stylebook app & it’s got quite disorganised. I’ve created new categories for “Autumn- cold/wet” & “Autumn- dresses” to see whether I really do have enough clothes for my Autumn capsule wardrobe. Assuming I can get into my pre-pregnancy jeans So far it looks like I’m missing some medium blue jeans & a replacement black leather camera bag. Jewellery-wise I’d really like some statement gold earrings. I’m glad I’ve done it - hopefully it’ll stop me from buying anything else

LuxuryWoman2018 · 30/08/2019 08:52

I’m going to give my stylebook a go I think. I wanted to wear my trench today as light rain is forecast but the temperature might be a bit high.
Was going to basically wear this lot plus dark skinny jeans

BarrenFieldofFucks · 30/08/2019 11:26

I love ponchos. The thinner, drapey kind. I find them very elegant.

Steviestamborine · 30/08/2019 11:27

Love that cuff Luxury.
You are all so organised! I’m after big soft scarves in purply colours.

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 30/08/2019 13:53

My Uniqlo jacket arrived yesterday - it could probably do with being a tiny bit smaller but at least I'll be able to get a jumper under it. It's very lightweight but warm too.

LuxuryWoman2018 · 30/08/2019 13:57

Glad you like it Greebols I’m going to order a couple of the slouchy v necks I think.

Thanks Stevie I’m pleased with it, much better than £95 !

ParmesanOfVirtue · 30/08/2019 14:24

My main concession to autumn is wearing plimsoll type shoes / trainers instead of sandals. The other stuff I wear is so basic it works all year round in varying thicknesses!

booktrotter · 30/08/2019 15:18

Just bought this kimono jacket today from M&S. Will go with so much! May wear it tonight with black t shirt and the skirt I accidentally bought too. I'll wear trainers or brogues but can see this with a thin knit black cashmere jumper and boots if it gets chillier

I can’t find that lovely cuff online Luxury - do you have a link to it?? Can it be squeezed to make it tighter? I have exceptionally tiny wrists.

Great buys book

LuxuryWoman2018 · 30/08/2019 15:29

It's quite loose actually. I'll try to find a link to all in the pic.

LuxuryWoman2018 · 30/08/2019 15:35

It is quite big but they have a set of bangles you might like www.topshop.com/en/tsuk/product/resin-tortoiseshell-cuff-8321346

Bag www.myexquisiteshop.com/products/camila-small-shoulder-bagel-bag
Trench again still in stock www.baukjen.com/products/clarke-trench-classic-navy
Also bought recently that someone else here had www.wallis.co.uk/en/wluk/product/clothing-265973/tops-265992/berry-utility-shirt-9087042. Which I already had in navy and quite fancy in teal but three might be weird?
