Dreaming of Autumn Clothes

Hello lovelies, I'm back and as always hoping that you're well. 
so the past few days I have been loving life (well the weather anyway), it is finally a bit cooler!
I really enjoy just browsing ASOS and whilst I was doing so the other day I found myself unconsciously, saving quite a few Autumn appropriate clothing items on ASOS, yes I'm one of those people who is dreaming of the upcoming season and the simpler times when you could wear jeans without sweating everywhere including your eyelids!

Dungaree dresses can be worn all year round just switch your short sleeve for long sleeves, I think they make nice casual outfits.Not my usual chosen pattern but, there's something about this checkered skirt. The denim dress would look really nice with a pair of woolly tights and a pair of Chelsea boots! A classic trench coat always makes me think of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's and this is no exception, which can only be a good thing! How cosy does that cable knit jumper look? Imagine being wrapped up in a blanket wearing that and comfy socks, reading the Harry Potter books, drinking a mug of hot chocolate?? YESS. The pink shade of this jumper and the frill details are really cute. It's also a bit different from your standard jumper. I think the midi skirt would work so well with a turtle neck jumper, and a nice pair of boots.
I think the denim dress look like it would be very flattering and can be worn now with bare legs or in winter with a pair of tights and of course boots. They grey jumper looks really come can be easily worn underneath items and tucked into skirts. I love this striped top (you know I love a good stripe) with contrast pops of colour on the sleeve cuffs. The dusky pink crop jacket would be great for the transitional period before we get into the depths of Autumn and Winter. You would never guess that the checkered skirt and blouse is really a dress! It would be ideal for all formal events and what I like the most about it is you don't have the problem of a blouse coming untucked from your skirt. The black and red jumper is a really nice statement knitwear with red glittery lips (yes, I did just say glittery) which is a perfect contrast. pussy bow.  Another piece of knitwear but, probably the most versatile with it's colour and being very slim fit it could be worn tucked into a skirt, jeans or underneath a pinafore. It's of course a winner with a pussy bow and a slight ruffle neck. The lettuce edge trim on the neckline and the sleeves and the tortoise shell buttons are a lovely addition to the basic style long sleeved top.



I hope you enjoyed seeing and reading about me chatting about my very early Autumn favourites.

Swimwear Favourites

Hello lovelies, I hope you are all doing well!
I'm not quite sure the point of this post really, I just saw quite a few pieces of swimwear and wanted to share my favourites with you. Fun fact I've never worn a bikini in my adult life mainly because I haven't been on holiday since 2009. I guess if you're lucky enough to be going on holiday soon you might see some pieces that you might like.

As you might be able to tell from this post I love a good pattern and ruffles when it comes to swimwear.

 I'm a big fan of all of these swimsuits especially the buttercup yellow square neckline piece from Topshop, the rust colour (I love it so much) ruffled piece from ASOS and the gingham piece with the tie front & cut out detail from Forever 21. But, if I had an endless supply of money I would definitely buy them all! 

Definitely way out of any budget I would have but, there is something about the Topshop Tommy Hilfiger bikini that I like, the triangle/halter neck top is such an interesting style. I also love the ruffles (of course), stripes (of course) and the addition of the red Tommy logo. I really like the red striped SUPER high leg and high waisted bikini bottoms from ASOS and it looks like everyone else is as they are sold out at the moment. The bottoms are definitely eighties/nineties inspired obvious with  how high leg and waisted they are! the black and white polka dot bikini with ruffle straps from Forever 21 is another favourite of mine too, I like how it's slightly different with a square neckline!
I thought I would include a few high waisted bikini bottoms aswell because I find that they look very flattering and are perfect for any one who is a bit body conscious like myself.
