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!

Also these black hiking boots from Primark for £16 that I can wear in bad muddy weather.

Wow, those Primark ones really look the part - I bought white ones like that from Primark last year as I figured I wouldn’t get the wear for a serious money spend

I bought these Next Slim fit high waisted regular length jeans for £32 which I can roll up (I'm slightly too short for them but not short enough for Petite!).
Soft stretchy denim & nice fit. To wear with trainers & ankle boots, & my cropped jumpers when it gets colder.

I’ve got these Zara ones in my basket at the moment....

@Rina66 I thought the Primark boots would be good for the kind of horrible stormy weather we get a lot of!

I don't want to wear my Dune boots in bad weather & wreck them but I thought the Primark boots seemed quite indestructible! Also maybe good for walks on the beach etc

I like the Zara Chelsea boots.. our PA at work wears Chelsea boots with tights & short tea dresses, they look good.

I love this one! I have 2 pairs and beautiful with trainers

I have bought a couple of great ( and expensive) things from Toast including that graphic sweater that ellapaella has linked, a gingham wool skirt and the dog tooth Taro shirt which has hardly been off my back since it arrived..
But for the most bargainous AW20 wins I think these Tu checked £18 jeans are going to be way up there with my AW20 favourites .. I have also worn these 3 times already with a big sweater and chunky boots and I only bought them earlier this week !

@follygirl I've been eyeing those up for almost a year but scared! Are they more flattering than a leather legging do you think? I'm a 12-14 (ore 14 right now!)

Loving those check jeans, what a total bargain! They remind me of ski pants, oh how I loved them back in the day.

@maudesid I think that they're really flattering as I haven't got skinny legs.
You can always send them back if they don't suit you.

@Laska2Meryls just ordered those from Sainsbury, thanks! (I really need help in this department, and trying to sort myself out so I look nicer, so anything like this us really useful! )

@LiveFromHome

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!

These are lovely @LiveFromHome how do you tend to style them?

@TryingnottobeWaynettaSlob for a casual/pub lunch type of day I'm planning on wearing them with a cashmere jumper or a chunky knit jumper and trainers or boots.

For dressing up I've got this and this and I'll wear heels - not that I'm going out anywhere worth dressing up for any time soon

I’ve just ordered those leggings in wine to go with this cashmere jumper I got in the whistles sale last year. Mine is black though, not navy.

I’ve also just bought this cardigan from hush & I love it, it’s so soft & warm. Not itchy at all.

@LiveFromHome Thanks so much for your reply. Those shirts look gorgeous I hope you get to take them out!! Like the cashmere sweater combo idea.. are they thick enough around the bum to not have to wear top that covers?

What about wearing them with one of those check shacket thingys that are everywhere at the moment?

@Rina66 do you own or work for that clothing company, because you're constantly posting about them on every S&B thread I've ever seen you on.

No, I don’t own Zara, H & M or ASOS either sadly 😂

@LiveFromHome I love that silk dress leopard blouse, absolutely gorgeous. It would look amazing with a leather pencil skirt as well.

@Ellapaella it looks really good with a french tuck into the leather look leggings. I quite like the skirt and belt it's styled with on the Silk Fred site but I don't think I'll be going out much/enough to buy that too!

*Silk Fred

@LiveFromHome same here, I was thinking I might order it but then I'm not sure how much I'd be able to wear it as I live in an area with increased restrictions so basically have no social life for the foreseeable future 😥

This came today. I heart it.

Very pleased with these, I have worn them a lot.
