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 :)

Service even not device lol

happytobemrsg · 14/08/2019 21:14

Oooo I’m so jealous @cheesenpickles. From what I’ve read online, the longer you stick at it the beater their selection gets as they start to understand your style.

cheesenpickles · 14/08/2019 21:31

Fingers crossed. I've come to the conclusion I basically want to dress between a mixture of Kate Moss and Joe Lycett Grin. Let's see what they make of that. Haha

PeriComoToes · 15/08/2019 00:56

Oooo cheesenpickles very much looking forward to your feedback on that.

Runneryogi · 15/08/2019 03:42

This autumn I’m really in the mood for mini skirts with thick tights and boots, and crisp shirts with skinny trousers and jeans. Going to wait a few more weeks before doing a wardrobe changeover though, doesn’t feel right doing it before September.
I love the autumn and autumn fashion, it reminds me of going back to school and buying a new pencil case

grannycake · 15/08/2019 06:27

my protected species commuter coat in the red is being delivered today and i also ordered a pair of knee length leather boots from Lands End in their sale for just £27 Hope they fit as I do have problems with fitting shoes/boots. I want to splurge on a one really nice jumper rather than multiple cheap ones but haven't found it yet and I'll probably need a new pair of black work trousers but like a previous poster I'm hoping to stay in spring/summer clothes until the end of September

LuxuryWoman2018 · 15/08/2019 08:50

Hoping the mac of beauty gets delivered today. grannycake I don’t really know lands end so I’ll have a look at their boots too.

cheesenpickles · 15/08/2019 08:56

I've got this Topshop blazer being delivered tomorrow. I love the look of it but at the same time I'm not entirely sure how much wear I'll get out of it.

Atalune · 15/08/2019 09:20

cheese oh do report back!

I love the blazer but I would struggle with the colour.....is it a muted mustard? Gorgeous shape though.

It’s a bit autumnal today. Still not going to wear socks yet!

cheesenpickles · 15/08/2019 09:25

I'm hoping so. I do love mustards and yellows but hoping it's not too vivid. I really suit it (along with green, khaki, tan, grey etc) as I've got olive skin/brown hair/brown eyes. I thinking it'll work well with jeans and a simple t-shirt underneath but will need to test out a few looks to see if it works. I love blazers but where I work from home 99% of the time I struggle to formal up when I have meetings (though I still tend to wear jeans as my role allows it). If I wear a black one I always feel super uncomfortable

LuxuryWoman2018 · 15/08/2019 09:27

It’s a great colour, I fancy a mustard bag tbh, thought it would look good with my new mac of beauty (hurry up postman)

cheesenpickles · 15/08/2019 10:03

Come on postie!

BenWillbondsPants · 15/08/2019 10:17

Great minds @LuxuryWoman2018, I got this bag to go with my mac of beauty - used all my birthday money but it really looks lovely with blue of the mac.

LuxuryWoman2018 · 15/08/2019 10:54

That’s lovely @BenWillbondsPants imagine if we bumped into each other in the same coat and same colour bag 😊

I’ll probably get another crossbody linked before as it’s budget friendly and I know it’s lovely.

The sun is back today, I never know what to wear on my feet towards the end of summer, too hot for boots but possibly rain. I’ve never worn trainers but I guess that’s the practical solution

cheesenpickles · 15/08/2019 11:06

Omg that bag is BEAUTIFUL

DisgruntledGuineaPig · 15/08/2019 11:59

Oh that is a lovely bag! I treated myself to this one very mumsy, I know.

It feels like October half term here, dry but its really not warm. Its making me feel like I need to get the big coats dry cleaned. (One year I will actually do this in march before putting them away...)

On the hunt for thin (for layering) boatneck jumpers, has anyone seen a nice one anywhere yet?

EnidButton · 15/08/2019 12:09

That bag is gorgeous Ben! I don't suit yellows or mustard but I love the colour so accessories may be the way to go.

Disgruntled That's not what I think of as a 'mumsy' bag and it's really nice anyway. The leather looks very soft.

grannycake · 15/08/2019 12:32

Lovely bag - tempted by the white

LuxuryWoman2018 · 15/08/2019 12:54

Your bag is lovely disgruntled not mumsy at all.

cheesenpickles · 15/08/2019 13:09

Oh that's lovely @DisgruntledGuineaPig and not in the last bit Mumsy. That with stonewashed jeans. Heaven. The bag porn here is unreal.

LuxuryWoman2018 · 15/08/2019 13:24

Bag porn 😆

BenWillbondsPants · 15/08/2019 13:56

Oh I love that bag Disgruntled, it's not mumsy at all!

DisgruntledGuineaPig · 15/08/2019 15:12

Oh thanks all, thought the whole bag vibe was terribly practical

LuxuryWoman2018 · 15/08/2019 15:25

Nope disgruntled definitely counts in the bag porn category 😆

No sign of my delivery, tomorrow I guess, I expect I’ll have it for the weekend.

Nearlyadoctor · 15/08/2019 18:00

Well it’s poured with rain here all day making me feel very autumnal. I spent the morning sorting through my wardrobe ( how many pairs of jeans does one person need !!)
Consequently then spent the afternoon online shopping:
Mahogany Regina flat boots from Fairfax and Favor
2 x fitted rollnecks M&S, plus 2 cord A line button mini skirts in camel and Khaki
2 x Autograph Cashmere jumpers ( mustard & grey marl rib)
Kingfisher blue Schöffel fleece
Navy check Fieldcoat from Joules

Thank god for free delivery and returns - excited for autumn now.
