Wooly cardigan.





Zara Cardigan 
Miss Selfridge boots 

This outfit is all sale purchases! I picked up this super cosy cardigan from Zara last week in Manchester, and it's the only thing I've bought from Zara this season which is weird for me as I usually get a few things from there! Anyway, it was only £19.99 and I loved the cream wooly collar as it's super soft! My trousers are from Miss Selfridge and are kind of like smart leggings. They're really flattering and comfortable and fast becoming a wardrobe staple for me. I paired them with a simple grey t-shirt (also a sale purchase) and some flat ankle boots (these were only £10 in the sale, but have sadly sold out online now but you might be able to find them in store, if not I also have these ones that are very similar ). If you want to see what else I picked up from the Miss Selfridge sale - I posted a haul video last week!

Button front skirt.




Primark jumper 
Topshop Boots 
Warehouse belt 

I've been wanting one of these button front skirts for ages now, but hadn't found one that fit right. I picked up this one from Next as it fits so well, and is also a good length. I don't usually shop at next but I was just walking through and saw this! It was only £20 which I think is pretty cheap as this skirt is really lovely. I'm so happy with it! I wore it with a Primark jumper (tucked in), a little belt and my Topshop boots.  I also added this little warehouse belt that I picked up from Selfridges in the sale for £5!

Cosy jumper dress.





Rings: The Great Frog 

I'm loving long boots right now, especially paired with jumper dresses - they're perfect for Autumn! This jumper from missguided is super soft, warm and cosy and I know it'll be the perfect thing for Winter, I couldn't wait to share it though, even though it's still a tad too warm somedays! My boots are from JustFab UK and are so on-trend right now. I like the faux suede material, and the subtle detailing, but most importantly, these boots come in wide calf fit - perfect if you struggle with 'regular' fitting long boots like me!

Black & brown






Karl Lagerfeld t-shirt 
Primark boots 
Rings: Vintage & The Great Frog 

I love this coat I got from River Island! It's really different to anything else I have, and I especially love the warm furry lining. The faux fur collar is detachable, which is something else I really like, as I'm not always in the mood for faux fur! I'm also wearing my new Karl Lagerfeld t-shirt that I found in the TK Maxx clearance for just £15! And of course the standard joni jeans, and my Primark boots to go with the brown faux fur.

Autumn stripes





Primark coat 
H&M necklace (old) 
Rings: vintage & The Great Frog 

I really like this outfit - it's very 'me'. The t-shirt is a little different as it's more fitted than I usually go for but I like the contrast of it against the more oversized fit of this Primark coat, which was only £10 in the sale! I'm also wearing my new Dr Martens boots that I showed in my haul on Sunday - they're really comfortable as they're the soft leather version.

Sweater weather




Primark jumper
Clarks boots (outlet)
Rings: vintage & The Great Frog 

It's time for Sweater Weather again, and this jumper from Primark is so soft and cosy! It's perfect for Autumn and Winter and is the kind of thing you can just 'throw on' with a pair of jeans and boots. It's warm enough to wear without a coat at the moment, but not if it's raining!

a little layering.




Primark tee (underneath)
Isabel Marant boots (past-season) 
Primark necklace & bangles
Rings: Vintage & The Great Frog

This is a pretty simple outfit, I'm really getting into layering recently, and although this outfit is pretty basic, I think it does have a little bit of interest with the layers. I've also dug out my Isabel Marant boots, I think these were the AW13 collection - I used to wear them loads but haven't worn them for ages!

Autumn Berry.





Primark jumper 
Clarks boots 
Jewellery: Topshop necklace (old), Rings: The Great Frog & vintage, Michael Kors watch

Another day, another Primark jumper! Their knitwear is so good though, and they've got absolutely loads of great pieces in at the moment! This jumper was £12 and is real wool, it came in loads of colours too, and I stayed away from the grey and black ones and bought the berry/purple shade! It's quite oversized but is nice and cosy, and I think oversized jumpers and long boots go so well together.  The accessories are my usual ones, although I am wearing a different ring, this one's from my Grandma - she can't wear it anymore because of her arthritis - I've actually had it for a while but I don't wear it very often!

Green.




Rag & Bone jacket (couture - past season) 
Primark jumper 
Rings - The Great Frog & vintage 

See I do wear colour! I think green is probably my favourite 'colour' to wear and I've been buying a lot of Khaki lately. I will say though, that I had to buy a new one of these Primark jumpers as my jacket had made it all rough and bobbly due to the textured leather which is a tad annoying, but I'd rather that than the other way around as this jacket was pretty pricey! I'm of course wearing my black joni jeans (standard) and my Dr Martens boots which are so comfortable. I'm also wearing black nail polish for the first time since I was about 13, it feels a little gothic I'll admit, but I do kinda like it!

Grey and black again.




Primark belt 
Dr Martens boots 
Rings: vintage & The Great Frog 

This dress from Monki is really oversized, so I added a belt to give it a bit more shape. It's so comfortable though, and I think I'll get a lot of wear out of it during Autumn and Winter. I went for a causal look when I wore this at the weekend, so I added my favourite Dr Martens boots and my usual rings. These photos were taken in a different spot (obviously), but I'm not sure if I prefer it or not, so let me know if you have any thoughts on it!

Loseth Not Thy Cool





6397 sweatshirt (past-season) 
Jewellery - Primark necklace (rings & watch same as usual) 

I'm not usually one for a slogan top, but I just liked this one. I bought it months ago in the Summer sale from Harvey Nichols, and sadly it's no longer available, but I still wanted to share it! The outfit is pretty simple, but you probably know by now that most of my outfits are! Also, my Givenchy Pandora bag is available again online and in stores - I'm not sure if it's back for good or just this season.

Skull of flies.





Primark stripe top 
M&S black leather flats 
Bracelets: Whistles & H&M (old)
Rings: vintage & The Great Frog 
Necklaces: Brandy Melville & Primark 

This outfit is what I'd call a 'transitioning outfit' (ie. between seasons). The two tops layered together work really well, and it's a good way to break up an all black outfit. I really like this skull tank from Cheap Monday: I picked it up in the Carnaby street store where the sales assistant told me he did 'a stripe wash' which made me chuckle as I wear too much stripes! I've always been a big fan of skulls and although I outgrew my emo phase long ago, I still love a good skull print - this one is made up of tiny flies. I got the shoes in M&S for £15 in the sale, they're real leather and are such a basic item. Believe it or not, I didn't actually own any black ballerinas!

Simple outfit.





Bangles: topshop & whistles 
Primark necklaces
Michael Kors watch 
Rings: vintage & The Great Frog 

This is such a simple outfit but I love this top/dress from Brandy Melville, it's so soft, comfortable and easy to wear. I've added some interest to a very plain outfit with a variety of jewellery - these Primark necklaces were only £2 for both!

Black, white & grey.





Primark suede boots
This outfit is quite simple, but I really liked it. I'm wearing quite a few of my new London purchases and I'm really pleased with them all. I love how soft and comfortable this Brandy Melville t-shirt is, and of course I'm wearing my joni jeans! My boots are from Primark and are a sneak peek from tomorrow's Primark haul video - they're real suede and were only £18. I've listed and linked all my jewellery above - I've been really enjoying wearing jewellery lately and I think I've finally found my 'style'. This cardigan from Topshop is something I wear all the time, it's just so comfortable, isn't too thick, and goes with almost everything in my wardrobe.
