Despite the fact my Met Office Weather app tells me that the next five days are full of sunshine, I’m coming to terms with the fact that we’ve had the suckiest summer for a hundred years, by getting excited about Autumn!

Yep, all those items (apart from the nail polish), are from New Look— & no, this post isn’t sponsored! It’s just my fail-safe, go-to place and I love it for affordable, high street fashion. (Plus, it’s the only clothes shop in my small & very local shopping centre, that isn’t M&S or a teeny Topshop!)

I’m not exactly a rebel or groundbreaker when it comes to my wardrobe, but I don’t usually stick to the ‘rules’ either (see: shorts with tights. WIN.) I think a lot of people see Autumn and Winter as the time to tone down your closet and wear neutral, muted colours. I, on the other hand, am quite happy to wear neon pink in the depths of winter and at the moment, I’m quite looking forward to mixing bright colours with khaki, burgundy and purple, as well as eyeing-up leather, studs and chunky knitwear!
