Show me your best AW2020 purchases so far

[flossiegrippiter]

I'm looking for inspiration, just starting Mat leave and have a £100 John Lewis voucher to spend. Just bought some vejas and have biker boots from last year. I'm planning a trip to Zara soon as I'm loving a lot of their collared knits but want to lose some more baby weight before their sizing sends me into a meltdown!

These leather look leggings for £15, which are a million times nicer than the Spanx leather leggings that I was persuaded to spend over £80 on last year by the style and beauty board!

I’ve just bought this frill hem hoodie sweatshirt, I figured it would be great with black skinnies and boots during the day, black leather look leggings and heels for night (if I ever go out again!) God forbid we get locked down again, I’ll wear it with black Hush hareem joggers, so it is covering all eventualities!

I bought these leather joggers from Hush in black. They are absolutely gorgeous and I love them. They're ridiculously expensive but so worth it

@follygirl they are so lovely. I am jealous! I was about to post these as I’m really happy with them, but they don’t compare do they? Tenth of the price though 😂

@Miseryisabutterfly your trousers look lovely too. Mine are lovely and silly money to be honest. I was having a crappy day with grumpy teenagers feeling unappreciated and my dh bought them for me to cheer me up. I’ve not got super skinny legs although I’m a size 10 and these are very forgiving.

Thank you @follygirl! I live in faux leather trousers, will graduate to the real deal one day. Yours sound much deserved, I hope they cheered you up! I am also a 10 with not very skinny legs, you’ve made them even more appealing 😂

Loving the leather joggers, they’ll look great with a silk shirt or equally a t shirt and denim jacket, just perfect. I’ve got the ASOS pleather version from 2 years ago, they’re surprisingly flattering.

I can’t show you, because it sold out in a nano-second, but I got an amazing jacket/coat from the Inès de la Fressange Uniqlo collection. It’s kind a Del Boy coat, if that makes sense - brown faux leather, with faux fur collar and lining.

I'm currently a size 16 although it's mostly post baby belly and milk engorged boobs! I have purchased some faux leather leggings from ASOS as they'll go over my csection scar but I'm hoping make me look more like I've made an effort!

I don't normally shop hear as a bit old for me however this caught my eye and I have to say it's lovely, I know I'll get loads of wear out of it.

Oh, you’ve reminded me, Roman Originals have a really nice Navy waterfall front faux leather biker jacket which I thought would look really nice with blue jeans, white T and white trainers.....just thought it would make a nice change from black. I’ll see if they still have it and post back.

Here she is....Ponte sides too, so hopefully would be a good fit.

@Rina66
That jacket is really nice

What are you all wearing on your feet with the leather leggings? (Out of touch.....)

I got some nice chunky lace up leather boots last year from Carvela, but the leggings look equally good cropped a bit with trainers. I’ve got some nice suede ankle boots with a western heel that look good too.... the online place I buy from is good for ideas, I’ll post some pics

This is the leather leggings with trainers and chunky boots....

I'm wearing mine with black Alexander McQueen trainers, or Doc Martens.

I have these boots in both colour, the fur is lined the whole way inside so they're amazingly comfortable and warm and a bargain price too I think!

I got some Veja campo for my birthday which have definitely been one of my favourite purchases this year.
I've had a beautiful dress from Sezane (pure silk), a gorgeous wrap dress from Toast and more recently this [[https://www.toa.st/uk/product/womens+knitwear/capci/graphic+yoke+wool+sweater.htm?clr=CAPCI_OatCharcoal_sw www.toa.st/uk/product/womens+knitwear/capci/graphic+yoke+wool+sweater.htm?clr=CAPCI<a class="break-all" href="https://www.toa.st/uk/product/womens+knitwear/capci/graphic+yoke+wool+sweater.htm?clr=CAPCI_OatCharcoal_sw" rel="nofollow" target="blank">OatCharcoallsw also from Toast.

For winter I've bought a dark ivy green padded coat from Hobbs and a pair of black Nike Internationalist trainers that I'm hoping will be versatile enough to be worn with most of my wardrobe.

Sorry for the rubbish link - hopefully this will work! https://www.toa.st/uk/product/womens+knitwear/capci/graphic+yoke+wool+sweater.htm?clr=CAPCIOatCharcoalsw

That's lovely @Ellapaella, I've also just bought some veja campo trainers to wear with maxi dresses and my new leather leggings.
I'm loving the Brora fairisle cardigans at the min but just can't justify the price on mat leave!

Oh yes Brora knitwear is just divine. I've also recently got the coated jeans from Hush which look like the leather leggings/skinny jeans. I really like them, they look great with trainers and an oversized chunky knit.

These ones https://www.hush-uk.com/coated-jeans-black/000547-2882.html

These black leather look joggers have appeared today, they may be a credible alternative to the Hush real leather ones and they’re only £25! I’ve got the magic trousers in the normal fabric and I love them, so I’m definitely going to try the leather look ones.

I bought these Rayee biker boots from Dune to keep me warm in winter! £70
