We're approaching my absolute fav time of year.
For dressing, especially. However. You know it - I am another one of those girls that obsesses over the change in colours, leaves falling, crisp mornings...and, of course - Hallowe'en. Obvs.
I tend to reach for the same array of items every Sept/Oct - & whilst I love to invest in new pieces, I wear the same items from years ago - or style them in new ways. I love to 'upgrade' a piece I've been loving, too. Example: first time I bought a loafer it wasn't the Gucci one. I kinda road tested a TopShop loafer, to see how much I wore that style...then saved up for the real deal...that kinda thing. I digress...
Let's get into some key pieces. Part I:
KILLER BOOT
Pretty much my go-to all year, but esp. Sept-Jan. For me, imperative features include: being super comfortable, warm & versatile. A snake embossed on the back is an added bonus.
Key Styles:
Gucci - Sylvie
Jeffrey Campbell - Check Lace-Up
Dr. Martens - Molly
Calvin Klein - Claire
Ganni - Callie
R13 - Gloss-Leather
EASY-TO-STYLE COAT
A coat you can style with everything - it keeps you warm, can handle layers underneath, has pockets...The kinda timeless piece you'll always wear.
Key Styles:
& Other Stories - Over-Sized
& Other Stories - Belted Wool
& Other Stories - A-Line Wool
Tibi - Denim Stretch
TopShop - Boucle Button Front
Acne - Checked Wool
CHECKED SKIRT
Nothing says autumn like checks & plaid: nothing. A mini skirt you can go tight-less with rn, and then add tights + long socks to as the chill creeps in. Love it with a chunky boot.
Key Styles:
TopShop - Yellow Mini
TopShop - Mixed Buckle
Versace - Pleated Patchwork
Tomas Maier - Checked Cotton
Free People - High Waist Plaid
Maje - Wrap-Effect Tartan
McQ Alexander McQueen - Wool-Blend
H & M - Checked Skirt
*pls don't take these posts as 'OMG I-need-to-go-and-buy-22813-things', but more - how can I use what I have? Do I need or really want a new coat? Which, say, two items should I invest in? Etc, etc. Ly, bye*
