Sometimes Forever Is Just A Second

Nothing pleases me more than when the Autumnal clothing begins to appear in shops. Okay, it might still be Summer so far as the calendar is concerned, but I’m all for this next season. This year, it’s not just the leafy tones and preppy cuts that have me “falling”, but also the range of fabrics that grace the rails: from lace to embroidery, Autumn clothing is leafing its mark.

Twirl like a ballerina in tulle

Keeping up the transition from Summer and refusing to comply with the harshness of the British weather, this year sees tulle in pastels…see, it’s basically an investment! I mean, layer with a jumper, high neck, or thick cardi, and you’re set for the chilly months to come, or, pop it in your suitcase (no need to worry about crinkles), and jet off for some sun, knowing that the short sleeves and thin fabric will keep you feeling, and looking cool.

Be the lady of love in lace

I’m a massive fan of lace, and have been for some time, and, much like the tuille, lace is versatile, elegant and uber feminine. Layered under a pinafore or tucked into a high-waisted skirt, finished off with brogues or boots, ready for an Autumnal dog walk or a trip to the city, lace knows the way.

Shine like the star you are in sparkles

With Bonfire Night and firework season not too far away, light up your wardrobe with a bit of glitter, a scatter of sequins and a whole lot of party potential. The nights may well be closing in, but that’s no excuse to revert to black polo necks all the time. As ASOS proves, sparkly fabric is set to stay…and why, oh why would we ever want to lose such shimmering top gains?!

Flutter your way to the top in floral embroidery

Intricate details will never get old, but when the cardis and coats comes out to play, the details have a tendency to get hidden away under a layer or four, let’s instigate some serious embroidery envy with these Zara shirts, so pretty you’ll be braving the chill! Perfect with jeans, or dressed up with thick tights and a skirt, these shirts work both as easy Saturday wear, or as a more “tied together” week day crowd-pleaser…either way, you’ll be more than just the girl next door!

I’ve already complied a wishlist, and started on the Christmas list, because, well, with styles like this, how on earth can we resist?! Just like the leaves fall off the trees, I’m blaming gravity for my fully blown, head over heels, descent into Autumnal wonderland!
