cooler temperatures are ever-present in the lovely UK, and its about time I really invested some time, and money, into this years winter wardrobe. This time last month, I was en route to Thailand - with a suitcase full of plentiful planning & preparation (23kg of summer, 40 degree heat resistant clothing). Leaving the house in conditions currently around 2 degrees, I'm currently craving warm and luxurious clothing like leather and faux furs...
My shopping baskets and home deliveries during the last few weeks have ranged from sequin-sleeved parka jackets, iPhones, Diptyque and Tom Ford candles, books to snuggle up with while I burning the them and too much from Topshop, namely a pair of leather leggings and perfect fur gilet...
the poor website images do neither garment any justice, I tried both on in store before purchasing online (hour long lunch breaks and equally long in-store ques aren't a good match...) the leggings cling everywhere they should with just the right amount of sheen, the faux-fur is luxurious, a deep jet black which ends at the perfect hip length - and i scored both of these for a mere £73.
I love the clash of luxurious textures, leather, lace, fur, silk, chiffon.. these two new items are sure to become staples in this seasons wardrobe. Take inspiration from the stunning Olivia Palermo who mixes texture and print like no one else. What are your new Autumn staples? rachelle xo
