The Winter Skirt

The Winter Skirt 

Another preppy Autumn outfit post today, featuring my new skirt from Topshop. I made a decision a couple of weeks ago that I was going to make more effort to wear skirts and dresses for the rest of this year. Don't get me wrong, I love skinny jeans and a big jumper for the colder months as much as the next person. But last year it was literally all I wore! So this year I am trying to switch it up a bit more, be a little more adventurous with my fashion choices. Maybe sometime soon I will start wearing colour, although that could be pushing it! 

I spotted this skirt while browsing though the Topshop website a couple of weeks ago and fell in love with it. It's in a jersey herrringbone fabric so it feels thicker and a bit more Wintery. And it has the A-line shape which I find looks the most flattering on me. I think this will look lovely with black tights, a woollen scarf and a coat. 

On this day I paired the skirt with my H&M jumper and my Zara fur gilet and some maroon loafers which you can't see. I also went bare legs which paid off as the weather in Manchester has been so strange recently and it was a really hot day. Almost too hot for the jumper! I also wore my everyday basic jewellery and my Longchamp handbag. 

Sorry that I haven't been posting quite as much recently. Now I am back at uni it is hard to find as much time and I have so many outfit posts and bits and pieces that I want to share with you! My house also doesn't have wifi yet so I have been going to the library pretty much everyday just to use the wifi! Although I am actually really enjoying taking my laptop and my books and walking to the library in the Autumn sunshine, especially if I am wearing something a little preppy like this outfit. Makes me feel like I am back at school again!

Hope everyone has had a lovely weekend. I actually cannot believe that it is October already! I need to start planning my Halloween outfit pretty soon! xx

So my Refreshers week is over (I spent most of it ill!) and another year of university has officially started. I'm really excited for this year studying Fashion Buying and all of my modules sound really interesting. This weekend I went to the library to get some book out for my course and try and get a bit of a head start on the year. I'm really loving a very preppy style in Autumnal tones at the moment so I thought that I would share my outfit with you. 

For me nothing say cute and preppy like a little collar poking out from underneath a jumper, especially a pretty white one. The sleeveless shirt that I am wearing is from Dorothy Perkins in a white broderie pattern and my jeans are just my favourite dark denim Zara pair. The beige jumper is a new one from H&M. I had the grey one and loved it and wore it so much that I bought it in the beige as well. I wonder if they also do a black...

I also wore my fur gilet for some extra warmth on the way to the library and rolled the sleeves of my jumper up for an extra preppy feel. I honest cannot get enough of my Longchamp handbag. I was such a great investment. I am also able to fit my Macbook, notepads, diary and then all my other bits and pieces in it, so it is just great for throwing everything in. 

After Summer I am really enjoying putting together Autumn inspired preppy outfits. So keep an eye out on my blog for lots more outfit posts like this one. Speak soon xx
