spicing up your autumn wardrobe ♥

When it comes to my autumn and winter wardrobe I used to really struggle feeling comfortable wearing layers or big jumpers. If you scroll through Fairytale Kiss then you will know I love wearing fitted outfits and I pretty much copy anything from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Now the weather is slightly colder and the leaves are turning a crispy, golden brown I wanted to write a blog post about how I still wear fitted clothes without catching a cold and freezing to death. Of course there is nothing wrong with wearing jeans and baggy jumpers but I personally love wearing mini dresses and bold boots. If you want to browse different brands and styles, Lyst is a pretty helpful website.

Boots

I am obsessed with boots, I think they can add a touch of sexiness if you can find a really edgy pair. I am crazy about vinyl or PVC boots, I love the 90's vibe and I think over the knee boots can spice up any baggy jumper. When I travelled to New York last year, it was pretty cold so I would usually grab an oversized jumper and wear this as a dress, although this would look baggy, my heeled boots would give me some extra height and sprinkle some glamour on my old, casual jumper. I have found a few of my favourites on Lyst, they will certainly dazzle your oversized dresses and jumpers. I have also been scrolling through ASOS and I found a new pair of boots to add to my wishlist - hello black patent!

Vinyl fabric
This is probably my favourite type of clothing, yes it is very bold but I think you can tone down wet look clothing. You may look like Neo from The Matrix if you wear head to toe PVC but I think you can wear one or two items to make an outfit edgier. I wore vinyl knee high boots with my outfit above and this added a slightly different twist to my trench coat and black dress. I picked a few favourite items from Lyst including the YSL heels and the YSL trousers, I would love to add these items to my wardrobe. You can certainly find dupes on the highstreet but if you are looking to treat yourself, YSL is a great place to start. If you are looking for more affordable wet look items for your shopping list, Missguided are nailing the vinyl trend, I am loving this Missguided black bandeau dress, it would be a perfect match for my suede trench coat.

For my go to autumn outfit, I picked a suede trench coat from Zara (similar) and an oversized night dress from Primark - yes, I am wearing a night dress. I love the fabric and I really love the way it hangs. This is certainly one of my favourite outfits for autumn, I don't feel cold but I still feel dressy with my wet look boots. This is just one of the outfits that I love to wear in the colder weather, I would love to know what you think of my picks. What tips do you have for spicing up your autumn wardrobe? I hope you enjoyed reading this post, happy shopping! ♥
