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 :)

That dress is a dream.

MulberryPeony · 22/09/2019 08:17

Nice dress!

Leftielefterson · 22/09/2019 22:06

I’m excited for the delivery. I saw it on a offer and thought it was vintage Missoni.

The hunt for boots continues...

What sort of boots would you wear with this kind of outfit? Not ground breaking but the sort of thing I wear most days.
I don't feel either boots are quite right. I can't feel the love for dainty ankle boots like these with skirts, in a 16/18 so am a bit chunky for that look.

What am I missing? 🤔 High tops or DMs with the jeans maybe, but what with the skirt?

This has dropped off my “I’m on” feed so I thought I’d revive the thread. Thanks to my still uncomfortable cs scar, the only jeans I find semi comfortable are high waisted ones (but as an hourglass I’m supposed to be sticking to those anyway). So I’ve bought some black ‘lift & shape’ jeans from NL (also grabbed a blue pair in the sale for only £10!).

@Ellapaella I finally succumbed & bought THAT New Look dress as it was in the sale - just £15 it would be rude not to

I also had a moment of madness & bought a black leather Gucci belt to wear with my midi dresses & when I’m tucking tops into my jeans. I love mixing designer accessories with high street clothes ❤️

I wore my camel poncho today & felt really good in it. I think it’ll become an Autumn staple

Ellapaella · 30/09/2019 22:54

Ah the dress will look lovely on you happy - that's quite a bargain as well, it would be rude not to!
I've not bought anything this month but have been lusting after ThisOliverBonasdress for weeks and my lovely DH bought it for me this weekend. I'm determined to break my jeans habit and wear more dresses this autumn and this one is lovely.

happytobemrsg · 30/09/2019 23:20

Oh that’s so pretty Ella! There are so many gorgeous dress out there at the moment. I like (but cannot buy) this one from Warehouse:

The way the weather has turned I’m getting great use from my Baukjen trench so it was a great buy.

I’m trying not to spend but still want a loose, cowl neck sweater probably in grey, plus boots but I can wait for sales for those. Everything I’ve tries is to wide on the calves so far.

Steviestamborine · 01/10/2019 15:50

I loved this thread so I’m glad to see it again, I got some wrist warmers from Turtle Dove which are gorgeous, and a couple of bags from My Exquisite recommendation here. Looking for warm jeggings and boots now

twosoups1972 · 01/10/2019 20:33

Great thread!

I’m looking for a cream jumper this year. Tried loads last year but none were right. Anyone seen any nice ones?

happytobemrsg · 01/10/2019 22:06

@Ellapaella I bought this t-shirt the other day to wear in a similar way to the H&M one we both have. Thought I’d share it with you in case you liked it!

LuxuryWoman2018 · 02/10/2019 07:35

twosoups I haven’t seen many nice jumpers anywhere tbh, I’m looking for both light and dark grey. I think on the ‘what are you wearing today’ thread there was a cream jumper, I forget where it was from.

Ellapaella · 02/10/2019 08:03

@happytobemrsg I do like it! Where's it from?

LuxuryWoman2018 · 02/10/2019 13:18

Are any of you looking at hair and makeup for Autumn/winter? My hair goes very light in the sun but I also tan easily. I’m wondering whether to warm my hair up now and go a bit caramel. Also wondered if Deichmans are any good for boots.

happytobemrsg · 02/10/2019 14:15

@Ellapaella it’s Daisy Street but I bought it from ASOS. It’s lovely quality considering it’s only £10. I really like it

Gilbert82 · 03/10/2019 15:42

I’ve also really enjoyed reading through this thread, it’s given me lots of ideas and inspiration for autumn and winter clothes! In fact I’ve just ordered a couple of jumpers from & Other Stories and some earrings!

happytobemrsg · 03/10/2019 20:43

Ooooh what did you buy @Gilbert82? I love & Other Stories knitwear & jewellery

Gilbert82 · 03/10/2019 21:11

I think they were actually some of the jumpers you had mentioned (I am also enjoying the what I’m wearing today thread, your outfits are lovely!). I ordered a leopard print one and a cream one, looking forward to them arriving! And some hoop earrings

LuxuryWoman2018 · 04/10/2019 10:46

What's the Other Stories sizing like please? I need probably two more jumpers for winter

Gilbert82 · 04/10/2019 11:31

I ordered a small and wear a size 10 usually, hopefully they will fit as I’ve not ordered from them before (the jumpers looked quite slouchy and oversized)

LuxuryWoman2018 · 04/10/2019 12:05

Slouchy is what I want, I'm especially looking for a very soft grey cowl or loose roll neck

Chanellta · 04/10/2019 12:36

I love this thread too and now it's colder I realise I need a few thIngs. There's a lot of parties coming up for various 40th birthdays so I'd like a couple of going out tops. What bag did you get Stevie ? They have a load of new things in and there's a lovely looking bag called Roxy I'm tempted by.

I'll take a look at other stories too for jumpers
