Why Your White Shorts Are The Perfect Autumn Transitional Piece

The Perfect Transitional Outfit Idea for You…

My favorite part about transitioning my wardrobe for the colder months is how creative you can be with your clothes! Many of us are quick to stow away summer pieces like our denim minis and white shorts, but they are actually the perfect transitional outfit pieces! I have never believed in rules in fashion – breaking the rules is a part of expressing yourself through style. That’s why I have always worn white, all year round! With white also being a key trend for Autumn/Winter 2017, you have every reason to keep your white shorts at the front of your closet!

The key to creating the perfect transitional outfit is pairing! With white denim shorts that are usually perfect for the summer, I would recommend something chunky and cozy to create the perfect contrast. That’s why I opted for one of my favorite chunky sweaters. You can wear any color with white, but neutrals like beige and cream work beautifully.

What really makes looks like these specials are the right accessories. To really elevate white shorts, I opted for my Seven Boot Lane boots. By adding a structured fedora like the one I have on, the entire look is more refined. You could also opt for a beret or baker boy! We all know how much I love those right now! A touch of color with my vermillion bag and I am ready for anything! This is actually an outfit that I have taken from a meeting to coffee, to drinks with friends! Who knew that your white summer shorts could be so versatile in the autumn? Would you wear this outfit?

3 Autumn Trends You Should Try Now

3 Timeless Trends, One Outfit

There is nothing more exciting than refreshing your wardrobe at the start of a new season. That feeling of a new start is undeniable! Chunky knits, thigh high boots, and adorable patterns are all coming our way this autumn. That being said, we have a new set of autumn trends to tackle! You know that I am a firm believer that trends should not drive your personal style, rather you should use them to enhance your sense of fashion (See how I translate F/W runway trends for everyday looks here!) What I love about autumn trends like these though, is that they are easy to work into everyday looks and they are also always in style!

My favorite go-to’s for autumn and winter are heritage prints like tartan, herringbone and checks, adorable hats like berets and baker boys, and red. Red is one of my favorite colors so I was ecstatic when I started to see the color pop up everywhere! The lovely thing about all three of these trends is that they go together perfectly! For this look, I combined a check blazer from Find by Amazon Fashion with my favorite red skirt. I love how well the colors go together! Plus, no autumn wardrobe is complete without a blazer like this! To finish off the look I added in my beret – the perfect finishing touch! What I really love is that although these pieces are “in trend” they work so well with my personal style that I’ve worn them over and over! Do you recognize the skirt from my LFW diary?

It’s such an easy outfit idea; a formula you can reach for no matter what! You can replace the beret with any cute winter hat in your wardrobe for the same effect! What do you think? Would you try three trends in one look?

Going from desk to drinks can be a stressful affair for most of us. The trick to the perfect day to night outfit lies in the little things. I've always said that accessories can really pull your look together, that being said, they can also change your look! One of the key ways to take your day outfit to a night outfit is with the right jewelry. Small pieces can completely change the look and feel of your whole outfit! Here to help me with that is AUrate Jewellery. AUrate (Pronounced Or-ate; like telling a story) is an ethical jewelry brand based in NYC. AUrate believes that you shouldn't have to choose between fair prices, ethical production, good quality and beautiful products. You can have it all with their gorgeous pieces! What I love most about this brand is the ethics behind it. Not only is every single part of their supply chain ethical, but for every piece of jewelry that you buy from them, an underprivileged child receives a book. Beautiful jewelry with a great cause - suddenly I don't feel so guilty about shopping! You can learn more about AUrate here! Scroll down for the perfect day to night look.

How To Wear Your Favourite Summer Skirt in Autumn

It’s time to transition that summer skirt in autumn…

There is no doubt that autumn is here in London. The wind is getting colder than any of us would like and I find myself wanting to snuggle in a sweater more than before. I know so many of us are so excited for sweater weather but a small part of me also doesn’t want to leave behind some of my favorite summer pieces. There are always those pieces we all wish we had worn more of in the summer, those pieces that make us feel so glamorous, or beautiful. The summer skirt is one of those pieces (especially for me!). What’s great is that it’s also one of the pieces you can very easily transition into your autumn wardrobe! Today it’s all about how to wear your favorite summer skirt in the autumn…

The formula is actually pretty simple. Grab your favorite summer skirt. For me, it’s this beautiful Isabel Marant Etoile piece. I love the ruffles and how feminine I feel when I wear this skirt. Now throw over a super chunky knit (or a lightweight one!) and add a pair of boots or sneakers. What I really adore about this formula is that the shoes always add some edge to your summer skirt, giving the whole look a very different vibe! Don’t be afraid to play around with texture or colors like I have here by adding in the yellow. You can even try this formula with your favorite summer dress!

I just wanted to also give these sneakers a mention. I got them from Amazon from their new brand, Find! They are so comfortable and so stylish – who would have guessed right? The mix of colors makes them super easy to match!

So how are you going to be wearing your summer skirt? Would you try this look?

Here’s How You Can Wear The Autumn/Winter Trends That Will Always Be In Style

Fashion blogger Shloka Narang of The Silk Sneaker showcases how to wear autumn/winter trends in a classic way

With another season upon us, it’s a whole new round of trends to think about! In the midst of all the Autumn/Winter trend talk, it’s so easy to get lost and feel the pressure to either make impulse trend driven purchases, or to feel “unstylish” One of the most important style lessons I’ve learnt is that you should never let trends dominate the way you define your personal style. Instead, how do the trends work with your style? How can you add small details and pieces that enhance how you already dress? There are certain trends that show up year after year, and will always be in style no matter the season. These are the trends worth investing in! I’ve rounded up the 6 trends that you are going to be loving this season. Not only that, I’m also showing you how to take the trends and translate them from the runway. I’ve created the perfect ensemble for each ‘trend’ that is a classic, and will work anytime, any moment!

The key classic trends that I know you’ll always want to keep are all white, heritage prints, faux fur, waist details, monochrome and tan. What I love about all these looks is that you probably already have the pieces you need to create them and if not, they are all worth having! Just click on the plus icons to shop the look!

So which outfit is your favorite? Do you think this helps you?

All White

There is something so classy about all white. White is a neutral that will never go out of style. So whether you wear your all white pieces together, or separately, they will always work!

Heritage Prints

Tartan, plaid, houndstooth. Like florals go with spring, heritage prints go with winter! I’m sure you already have some or all of these pieces in your wardrobe! An outfit like this is on trend and always classic!

Faux Fur

I love that the fashion industry is moving towards faux fur – it’s the future! It’s a great way to add some luxe to your favourite off duty look! So simple!

Waist Details

Adding attention to your waist and creating a silhouette is never going to go out of style. Paperbag waists or anything with a tie detail is a great piece to have in your wardrobe, especially this season!

Monochrome

I LOVE monochrome. I love wearing shades of one colour, or just one colour, through my whole outfit. It’s so simple but it looks so chic! The colours this season are blue and red – blue is a favourite of mine! (Think Dior!)

Tan

I think this might be my mothers favourite colour – and she is always classic in her style. Tan is having a major moment this year, but it’s always a part of any collection and should be a part of your wardrobe! Works so well for work too!

The Easiest Way To Refresh Your Favourite Sweater Dress for Autumn

Sweater Dress for Sweater Weather…

The sweater dress is one of those pieces that we all are secretly waiting to wear. The minute the leaves turn golden, the first thing that comes to my mind is a sweater dress outfit! Although our old autumn pieces can start to feel a bit old or dated, adding life to them again is so simple! I always find that an easy way to make a basic piece feel extra stylish, is with the right accessories!

For this look, I wanted to highlight that transitional feel so I went for accessories that were lighter; denim based! I used the belt to create a new silhouette and added some definition to my waist. The denim jacket is a great way to layer up and still look effortlessly cool!

I love these boots so much they have become a quick favourite! They go with everything and immediately make my sweater dress look cooler! I’m actually going to a special pre-fashion week breakfast held by Seven Boot Lane so tune into my Instagram to see how I style them today!
