Pleather Up

Since we’re now in to September I don’t feel quite so bad about sometimes retreating back to my favoured black and grey colour palette and swapping sandals for boots. As much as I prefer the weather of Summer when we get it, Autumn and Winter layers are what I feel most comfortable wearing so it’s a bit of a relief when the air is cool enough and the craving for a darker palette kicks in.

I couldn’t resist adding in a splash of colour in the form of these brilliant boots from Missguided. These are seriously so comfortable and cushioned that I can walk for miles in them, and they are an excellent transitional shoe as the cut outs mean you don’t feel as caged in as you would with a solid boot.

I’m always a bit hesitant when wearing this dress as it’s so short- I’m afraid that one wrong move and I’ll be flashing my knickers at someone! Oh the perils of being a tall girl…
Still these super old animal print tights from Primark just about saved my dignity and with my favourite ever light weight sweat from Skip N’ Whistle this was a perfect ensemble for a lazily productive Sunday clearing out my wardrobe.

Do you find you’re drawn towards different colours when the weather changes? I do love a pop of bright in Winter, but I prefer it to be paired with an otherwise monochrome palette rather than full on.
