Fall Fashion
It's official: Summer is ov-ah. March is here and with it comes a whole new season - hello, Autumn, you golden goddess, you. If you're not sure what your wardrobe needs to survive these next three months, don't fear! I've totally got this. Just for you, I scouted Asos and found my best picks for transeasonal fashion to help keep you covered and in-style. You're welcome.
The "Going-Shopping" Outfit
Also known as the "I'm-running-errands" outfit, the 'going-shopping' look is often a hard one to pin down. It has to be cute, but comfortable. Practical but stylish. I'm a huge fan of this dress - partly because anything with a cupid-heart print is a-OK in my book and partly because it just looks comfortable. The sleeves give you a bit of warmth but I reccomend pairing it with a leather jacket and opaque tights for the cooler months. Add ankle boots, blow-dryed hair and some glossy lips for a perfectly presentable but cute-as-a-button look.
The 'Sunday Brunch' Outfit
I was one of those people scratching my head and going "Jumpsuits are a thing, now?!" but damnit, the trend got me and I'm a recent covert to the jumpsuit revival (largely because it's like a onesie you can wear outside. So. Damn. Comfortable). I adore this offering from Asos and the best part? It doesn't even look like a jumpsuit. Pair it with a leather/denim jacket or even a cardigan, a long layered necklace, a bangle or three and you're good to go. Simple chic! Not feeling the floral pants in this offering? Asos also have this one, this one aaaand this one. Do it!
The After Hours Drinks/Dinner/Date Outfit
You know the scenario: you've just gotten home from work on a Friday afternoon and are ready for a glass or seven of wine and an early night when you get a text from your BFF/significant-other/colleague/random inviting you out for drinks and/or dinner. You can't decline and you're brain is screaming "BUT WHAT AM I GOING TO WEAR". Never fear, my friend. This little kimono shrug from Asos is going to be your new best bud. Pair her with leather, leggings, skinny-jeans or tights, a (preferably clean) cami or singlet top and BAM! instant glam-ification. Layer your wrists in some metallic bracelets, pull your hair into a cute top-knot bun, apply your best red lipstick, grab some heels or ankle boots and sashay your sweet-ass out that door. I guarantee you, you'll love this baby.
The "It's Cold I Need a Jumper" Outfit
Ok, so this one is less of an outfit and more of an actual wardrobe requirement. Every Autumn/Winter, I start stockpiling my wardrobe (and also my Floor-drobe, Car-drobe and Work-drobe) with woolies that don't look like something my Nana would wear. I seriously heart this studded sweat top. Why? IT GOES WITH ANYTHING. Seriously! Jeans, pants, leggings, shorts, skirts, garden hoses (Ok, maybe not, but you get the idea). It's a sweat so you know it's going to be comfortable and the studs help to glam it up a bit. You can take this beauty to the movies, a date, hell - wear it to work. I know I will be.
The 'Hot Date/Glam Night Out' Outfit
It's a touch cold outside but you want a dress to 'wow' for the special occasion. Be it a wedding, a hot date or a night wining and dining with your five best friends, this pretty frock from Asos is your go-to. If the weather is on the mild side, wear it with bear legs and some sky-high heels. If it's super chilly outside, pair it with opaque tights, boots and a coat to keep you toasty. It comes in three colours (black, cream and wine) but I'm partial to the cream.
And there you have it my friends. Five awesome Autumn essentials to keep you wonderfully warm and fabulously chic this season. Happy Shopping, y'all.
