Autumn wardrobes.... what are we thinking of?

[pinkflamingo22]

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 :)

What’s your body shape @Elloello? Styled by Susie always recommends a chunky shoe for curvy shapes (pear, hourglass & apple) as they help balance out the silhouette

@cheesenpickles what are you doing to me?!? 😩

@Elloello honestly if you’re on FB I’d recommend Joining the Styled By Susie Tribe - they are all about trainers with dresses, dressing for your shape etc

I'm sorry @happytobemrsg but there's too much pretty stuffffff. Though side note can't find it anywhere on Topshop.com so we may have had the decision taken from us.

That dark red dress looks great.

I wore brogues with a pencil skirt yesterday and got several nice comments.

Re nude fishnets - I agree that the colour can look a bit weird, but I think it matters less than with nude tights, because it's obvious that they are tights rather than trying to look like bare leg.

Has anybody seen any bigger holed fishnets recently, other than in Primark which I just can't bare to go into?

Dr Martens and opaques might work better than black trainers and opaques, so definitely worth a try.

I’ve spent the best part of an hour unwrap it and trying on clothes.

Couldn’t photo everything as I ran out of time but here’s the majority. The cape and the Zara jacket are beautiful.

The Bella Freud’s are lovely on, I wish I’d gone down a size though but I’ll be wearing over dresses so maybe slouchier will be a better look.

Green dress from ASOS is lovely but I’m booby and it’s very booby so I’m a bit on the fence.

I’ve also found a pair of cargos that I love and flatter my legs. Before I definitely keep them though I need to make sure I’ve got enough to wear with them. I’ll be dressing them up (heels) and down (trainers).

Omg I am too jealous!

Please can you provide me with the links to the dress and little blazer. I love them both very much.

Certainly can. Cape is www.asos.com/jcrew-mercantile/jcrew-mercantile-wool-cape/prd/10735165?ctaRef=my%20orders but I think it may be out of stock. Credit to ctr for the cape, she saw it and we all jumped on the bandwagon and actually I want to thank you for sharing ctr because I wouldn’t have found it but for you.

Dress is here:

Enjoy!

I missed out on the cape Still hunting for a similar one. No luck yet.

enid - what I find with ASOS is that they get so many returns you’ll sometimes see something come back in stock so I’d definitely keep checking and actually perhaps email them? Honestly it’s worth it and I say that not trying to rub salt into the wound, it’s a lovely cape. I felt like batwoman in it, in the best way!

I'll keep an eye out, thanks Leftie Maybe the "payday purchases" will start being returned next week.

I love the White Company one too but not sure I'd get as much wear out of it.

Oh and an email is a good idea. Worth a try.

If you have the ASOS app you can highlight it to email you when a particular item comes back in stock.

Is the little jacket a bit Chanel-esque? I think I have seen it, with sort of high shoulders? I can’t do anything that will make my shoulders wider.

My shape is inverted triangle/athletic....and I have to be very careful of shoulder embellishments or so start to resemble an ageded shot putter. Sorry to all the shot putters out there.

I am trying very hard not to spend anything.

@Leftielefterson - yey, cape love all round! I'm glad you love it too.

It had actually gone out of stock when I bought it so they are getting returns back. You can also order it from the US on Ebay but for ££££.

Atalune - very Chanel i’d say. It really is a beautiful piece but yes, padded shoulders, very piqued.

I’m sending a few things I didn’t photograph back as they just didn’t look great. I need to stop spending now.

I've been charity shop shopping - my favourite kind.

The red cardigan is cashmere, is in perfect condition and cost £10, the green cami is River Island and was £3.50, and the black top which is Hobbs and looks fantastic on was £6. I do love a bargain!

That’s a fantastic haul Greebols I haven’t had any charity shop treasures for ages but have done well in the past.

Thank you Cheese

Loving all of these buys! We are definitely enablers 😂

@happytobemrsg you look fab I’m the red dress! I’m happy with mine too. My bloody jumpers still haven’t arrived. You’ll have yours first at this rate!

I’m really pleased with my faux leather Zara trousers! Would recommend!

I'm still lurking and loving all your purchases/pictures

Oh no Misery, I hope there isn’t a delay in posting out orders.

My Zara jacket got delivered to my Mum's by mistake (ordered something for her previously and forgot to edit preferences).So I'm now drumming my fingers and waiting for it to arrive...

Not buying anything else.

Well, apart from getting some existing wide leg Whistles trousers copied in wool (maybe houndstooth or POW check) when I go to SE Asia, oh and maybe some ankle boots
