A-hey-hey! Well... Autumn came around pretty fast, didn't it? We shot these last week when it was still relatively mild (I actually remember getting a little sweat on under this coat. Not that you needed to know that) and suddenly this week it's 6 degrees and I have a bobble hat on to go to Tesco. I don't know why I'm so shocked every year when Scotland crosses the border from mild into 'shit that's freezing' but it always catches me off guard. However, this coat is one addition to my wardrobe that's going to come in verrry handy this Winter as it's one of the warmest things I own. It's full lined and is so, so heavy and cosy. I also like the fact that it's blue as I own a lot of black and grey checked coats (which, yes, you'll be seeing a lot of in upcoming posts, I won't lie) so it's nice to have something that little bit different. The grey cropped jumper I love. I have one from H&M and its cost per wear must be down to about £0.0000017 I wore it that often (you might actually remember it from really old blog posts, it's this one here) but it's actually a very hard thing to find, a nice cropped jumper is - hence the wearing to death - so I'm glad to have found a replacement.

The rest of the outfit I think is all things you've seen before; my big slouchy Coach bag, stonewash GAP jeans and Senso fringed boots. I had a big clear out the other day and spotted these boots looking a little forlorn at the back of my wardrobe and so promised them I'd take them out for an adventure. I'm not proud of it but I did forget I had them.
