So, here’s the thing. Autumn is my favourite season. I love the crispy weather, the leaves, dark lipsticks, soups, pumpkins, blankets, and everything autumnal you can think of.
But I mostly love autumnal fashion.
September is the January of fashion, with the most important magazine covers, the most important fashion shows and everything and anything. Autumn is when I feel the best with my outfit, as I love layering, but it’s also not too cold to wear zipped up jackets and coats that hide your outfit underneath. It’s when you can get the MOST creative with the way you look. And I sure love being creative.
This year I have become more aware of fabrics and I’m trying to find pieces made from natural or semi-natural fabrics that won’t break the bank. You can imagine how hard that is. I realise that some things I won’t be able to find in store for less than the price of my right leg, but the closer I can be to a wardrobe full of nice fabrics, the better.
I’m not only doing this for sustainability. Although that’s a major topic these days (I have some opinions on it), I have come to realise that polyester, acrylic and nylon are just *terrible* for my skin. So I’m looking for natural, breathable fibers for my own sake.
So here are the autumnal pieces I want to buy.
