Autumn Obsession

It's not even the end of Summer and I'm already craving cardigans, thick tights, ankle boots and my parka coat. I've definately decided that Summer isn't the season for me, I don't like getting my legs out on those rare days when it is actually warm, I don't like feeling sticky or sweaty and flip flops just give me blisters in between my toes. Yes, I definately think that Autumn is the season for me, the clothes are right up my street, the leaves turn pretty colours and it's not too cold either! (FYI, I hate Winter, yes snow's fine for the first day when you're bundled up inside going 'oooh look how pretty it is', but then it's an evil slushy devil that just wants to make me slip up and send me freezing cold.) So imagine my delight when I check my usual website haunts and notice that all the Autumn/Winter wear have started popping up! Anyway, here's a few of my favourite picks for Autumn, now I wonder if my student loan will cover all this and still leave me money for food...


1. New Look Dress: not only is it a gorgeous vintage inspired dress, the print is tiny daschuands, need I say anymore!?
2. Topshop Jersey Floral Tunic: I'm loving all the 60's/70's inspired clothing and can see this tunic, like my other Topshop tunics, fitting right into my wardrobe and being worn throughout the chillier seasons.
3. Urban Outfitters Aztec Cardigan: I can see myself living in this cardigan, it looks soo chunky and warm, I can picture myself curled up on my bed, wrapped up in this cardigan, watching a good film with a massive cup of coffee and seeing the snow fall outside(and seeth inside, I hate snow.)
4. New Look Heeled Loafers: I definately one of those people who can't wear heels in the day time (I'm 5'10), but I think these are little enough to get away with and they look insanely cute too. I'm such a huge fan of masculine shoes, but I do like how the heels gives it a more feminine edge.
5. New Look Palazzo Pants: I really want to try this trend, soo Seventies inspired, when I tried on a pair I felt like Margo from The Good Life! (It's a good feeling ;) )I'm moving even further up North when I go to Uni and I've got a feeling trousers will be a much better option that skirts and dresses when the cold weather sets in!
6. New Look Tailored Trousers: Such a lovely ink blue colour. Chinos don't really suit me (make my thighs look even more massive :/), so maybe these more tailored and fitted trousers will suit me better? Again, would be great for cold weather!
7. ASOS Brogue Boots: Mmm, aren't they divine? They look very hard wearing but yet soo pretty, if I could only get one thing off this list it would be these boots.
8. Topshop Velvet Teal Ballet Pumps: Such a beautiful colour, I love flimsy little pumps like this, but with my heffer feet and fast walking pace they don't last too long unfortunately!
9. Topshop Pyjama Inspired Jacket: I know this won't be up everyone's street, but I really like it! I think this would be really great to add to quite a plain coloured outfit.
10. Urban Outfitters Ostrich Bag: My inner old lady is crying out for this bag! The ostrich pattern reminds me of the Mulberry Tilly Ostrich bag that I love soo much, which is another reason why I like this bag.
11. Topshop Leapard Bodycon Dress: I'm not normally a fan of leopard print apart from on my nails, I really love this dress! I think it's the tan colour of the dress that makes it work for it, I think this dress could easily be dressed up with chunky heels and a leather jacket or down with a chunky black cardigan, tights and brogues.
12. ASOS Chelsea Boots: Everyone loves a Chelsea boot don't they? I thought the colour looked lovely as well.

And that's my picks for this Autumn! In other news I got into University! EEEEEEEEEEH! :') I'm going to be attending University of Cumbria, but living on the Lancaster campus, which is a good 2 and a hlaf hours away from where I live now! Since I went in through clearing it's been a bit hetic these past few days, buying things to for my accomadation, sorting Student Finance out, sorting accomadation out, going upto visit Lancaster, it's all happened so quickly! I thinking of doing a bit of a 'stuff for Uni haul', I'm not sure if people will find it interesting though? Who knows!
Thanks for reading!
Lots of love, Lottie xxx
