First of all, yes it is August, and yes this is a post about autumn. Whether you like it or not, autumn is hiding just around the corner. For me, this is great. I'm really not much of a summer person at all, and spend most of my time in jeans and a t-shirt, with an emergency jumper rolled up in my bag. I think I had bare legs twice this year.. and even that was with a midi skirt.
Whilst summer may not be officially over, autumn began creeping it's way into my life last week, when I picked up a gorgeous soft plaid blanket scarf from Zara. The colours are beautiful, and couldn't be more autumnal if they tried. I've been swapping my tan flats for ankle boots, and excitedly eyeing up the thicker knitwear section of my wardrobe.
It's almost time to dig out deep berry blushers and lip colours, and spritz on all of the fig perfume you can find.
Bring on the darker mornings, falling leaves and hot chocolate!
Thanks for reading, and I'd love to hear what you think down below! :)
I'm super excited for fall, and everything that involves fall. Autumn has been creeping into my life from a couple of days as well since I'm moving soon to England and I really needed warm clothes!
ReplyDeletePS. I love those boots!

Same, it literally can't come soon enough!! And ooh yes, you might! I'm hoping winter is more wintery this month as well, more snow please! x
DeleteI think I picked up a similar plaid scarf myself last year and wore it a lot! They are very very comfortable! I am eagerly waiting the arrival of fall here! Its the my favorite time of the year! :-)

I wish I'd got one this big last year, it's so cosy, I have it wrapped around me like a blanket at the moment! x
DeleteI'm not much of a Summer person either! Being sticky and sweaty and just can't be bothered doing anything is not my thing! I really need to pick up some boots as I don't own any. And I love bringing out my berry shades for Autumn too.

Aw no!! I live in jumpers most of the time anyway - but soon it's going to be more socially acceptable, yay!! x
DeleteI love your boots! I must say even though I am a summer girl through and through, I'm a sucker for a chai tea latte and watching netflix with a bundle of blankets! :)

DeleteThe ankleboots are ah-mazing. I'm looking for a pair just like those, suirable for British weather, haha :) I'm definitely exicted for autumn, I love browsing the Zara website for autumnal inspiration and am already eyeing plum & berry lipstick and nailpolish!

Thank you! They were from Office last year. I need to invest in a good autumn lipstick, every year I try to find one! x
DeleteI love autumn and wrapping up warm! The mustard colour jumper looks lovely and I think I need to invest in one similar as it's the perfect autumnal shade x
ReplyDeleteThank you! It's actually a men's jumper.. haha! x
DeleteAutumn is my favourite season, oh how I love it! I'm already planning a trip to go out and buy some new jumpers this year, I skimped out last year so some new ones are definitely in order. Your boots are lovely!!

Same here! I need to look at jumpers as well.. Zara has been a real hit so far this year! x
DeleteI love autumn, definitely glad for the cooler weather (the ugly jumpers and chunky boots are making a reappearance!)
ReplyDeleteHeather | porcelainbeautyx
Yes, so glad about that! Definitely my favourite time of year :) x
DeleteI am totally a "summer" person, dear Amy...but you've done such a lovely job of describing the wonders of autumn that I'm - almost! - a convert!! Except for the dark mornings part...that always depresses me!! ;)
