Autumnal Wear - Chic & Stylish Linkup

Good morning everyone. 
Hope the week is going okay for you. 

Today’s post is a day early, various reason but I thought you might like the change!
I had to take a skirt back to Primark yesterday and came home with a couple of new ‘autumn’ bits. Chocolate brown is still topping the colour charts with a warm caramel and moss green added too. Marks and Spencer had some super knits and I can home with the one I’m showing you today. Read on for full details for this £18 jumper, plus the £18 skirt from Tu Clothing. 

Items marked with a * have been gifted to me, however these are 100% my own honest comments. 


Whilst in Tu, Sainsburys I spotted this skirt. It’s nearly a maxi and is a heavy fabric that’s going to work really well in the cooler months especially when I can wear thick tights and long boots under it. Here I’ve opted for ankle boots without tights as it’s still quite hot here on most days. It’s just a pull on version which scores top marks in the comfort stakes. It’s not got pockets which is a shame, although I don’t think they’d be a great addition with this fabric, it’s sure to have some stretch and could look unsightly. I only found one length which might cause problems if you’re shorter, but can be taken up easily enough. Obviously if you’re taller it isn’t a problem as it would look just as nice sitting up the leg a bit. I’m 5”4 size 12 for reference. 


I wore the new jumper too. This came from M&S as previously mentioned and it’s a super soft knit that’s going to not only look good but feel nice on those cold days. It’s a good layering tool as thin clothes, like a tee shirt or shirt can be placed underneath for extra warmth. It will also pair well with a chunky cardigan or waistcoat too. Here I pulled on a recent new jacket from Damart. It’s such a cute colour combo don’t you think. Pale blue and chocolate brown. Do give it a try. 


Isn’t the jacket a super style. It’s a copy of the Chanel style with brass buttons and cropped finish. I’m going to get lots of use from this beauty as it looks just a nice with jeans. (Showing those next week) it’s got faux top pockets which also have the same buttons on. I know it’s been discounted recently and you can add this cute jacket to your collection for only just under £49 - such a good price for a tweed jacket. *


How about
this lovely neat bag.  It's from my favourite company ... Elie Beaumont.  You've seen me styling plenty of their lovely leather bags along with fabric versions like this one and this one.  Tan is always popular in Autumn which lots of earthy tones and colours popping up in the shops.  So that paired with all my brown clothes will be really versatile.  Do you own a tan bag at all? You can view the other colours and styles here and don't forget my personal discount code JQ10 is still valid for a cheeky discount! Dumpling bag! Now isn't that a cool name for such a hot bag? Complete with two straps, gold hardware and internal zipped up pocket with and a dust bag all for £79! With my discount it's positively a steal - right!
