New Season Lust List

Now that the summer sales are over all the stores are filling up with new season goodies enticing you to part with your money. It's the perfect time to invest in a winter coat, new boots or cosy knitwear. While I will be hitting the high street for my new season buys here is a list of what I would purchase if I had a money tree.

I'll start with the accessories. These Isabel Marant boots are perfection. I adore the gommet detail, the wrapped leather and side tie. They'd work perfectly with both jeans and a skirt.

Aubrey Boots £845 Isabel Marant from www.mytheresa.com

Jil Sander Navy has put a dotty spin on these lace up shoes. I live in flat shoes and these would be a fun edition to my shoe cupboard.

I'm on the search for a cross-body bag and this offering from Saint Laurent would make me so happy.

Cross-Body Bag £1,110 Saint Laurent from www.matchesfashion.com
Fur is massive for A/W. I will be buying into the trend with a faux fur coat or scarf. I am in LOVE with the coats from Shrimps, plus they have the cutest website. They also sell gorgeous scarves in fantastic colour combinations. I love the pink and red combo but am also lusting after the blue and orange.

Ivana scarf £175 Shrimps
Navy and black is a favourite colour combination of mine and this wool fedora will add interest to my winter outfits.

Fedora £118 Hat Attack from www.mytheresa.com
Now for the clothes. A coat is an item of clothing you should invest in and this cape version (capes are a must buy for Autumn) in two-tone grey would be a welcome addition to my wardrobe.

Cape coat £1000 Richard Nicoll from www.matchesfashion.com
Tailored wide leg trousers are another strong trend for Autumn and one I will definitely be buying into. This version by JW Anderson have a flattering high waist and I adore the quirky oversized ankle detail. I'd wear these with some trainers during the day and with a strappy sandal for evening.

Wide leg trousers £430 JW Anderson from www.net-a-porter.com
I love mixing textures and fabrics and colder weather lends itself to this. I'd wear this leather midi-skirt in merlot (a major colour trend for the new season) with a navy chunky knit and those Isabel Marant boots.


Skirt £1650 Pedro del Hierro Madrid from www.net-a-porter.com
The love of logo tops continues into autumn and I am coveting this oversized version by Acne Studios.

Sweater £220 Acne Studios www.mytheresa.com
You can never have too many LBD's in your wardrobe and this duchess satin dress with a fringe hem is perfect. I love the high collar, short sleeves and loose cut. I'm crossing my fingers a similar version will turn up in a sample sale somewhere!

Dress £1795 by Stella McCartney from www.matchesfashion.com
