A Casual Transition

Today I truly felt it! Autumn is here- THANK GOD! I can’t stand the awkward transition of seasons; I never know what to wear as I’m either excessively hot or too cold in what I choose. Gosh what trials and tribulations I go through in everyday life!

I bought this fabulous biker jacket the other day from Zara; it’s just thick enough for the now-cooler climate to keep you warm. I absolutely love the shoulder detail which for me, categorically, makes the jacket stand out from all the other biker versions I’ve seen so far. Smashing stuff!

S is for Skirt

  

Autumn Winter 13-14 has an innovative emphasis on the fresh femininity of the skirt- there is a shared theme with the design which gracefully skims around the womanly figure with longer hem lines.

I found this leather style skirt in the Armani Exchange which just called out to me and my mother, the soft fabric and unusual zip down the side made the purchase decision easy.

Now I know I’m no beauty blogger but I just had to share with you my two favourite make-up weapons recently- great autumn colours for the season transition!

Check out those trousers

 

Trousers: Marks & Spencer- Limited Collection, Shoes: Topshop, T-shirt: Topshop, Jacket: United Colours of Benetton, Clutch: Vintage

 

 

Checks, Squares & Tartan are this Autumn/Winter’s leading print trend. As soon as I saw these trousers it was just necessary for me to purchase them- fabulous for casual and smart attire. I would wear a pair of black brogues or black leather loathers for day wear and a pair of simple understated black courts for smart. The black detail down the sides are great for slimming down legs and may I add the trousers are a marvellous fit for a perky bum !
