Harper's Bazar UK November 2012, Model: Carola Remer by Ben Weller

This editorial is so beautiful and inspiring... especially because I  have been pretending I could look this effortlessly chic and gorgeous in the cold, rainy and windy Scottish weather. I absolutely love the long, dramatic coats that basically make up an entire simple outfit. Wool has to be everyones best friend in this half of the world, it has this amazing way of keeping you warm, day in and day out!!!  Another amazing thing about this spread, are the boyish figures that are present within the styling. I find it is very, very hard to pull off this look, there is a certain body type and face structure that just makes it work. 

This will hopefully be enough inspiration to get me through the next few months. I'm running out of jumpers… I may need to make a trip to Primark and Topshop soon (yes be very jealous North American followers/readers, I've got it good!!)

Finally Moving

hat, sweater & jacket, Target ; pants, UNIQUO ; boots, Browns ; purse, Zadig et Voltaire

Day out shopping with my mom! It was relatively nice out, pretty autumn day.

Basically I have been completely headoverheels about these floppy brim hats since I saw them last fall. With my normally curly hair the hates don’t sit nicely. Having my hair done made me a little more adventurous. This cute knit was on sale at target, an amazing find! The outfit is so simple, it is now my girl-about-town look. Loving fall fashion to the max. Yummy sweaters and cute hats!

Lotsa Baggage

 

Practical and perfect – cozy enough for fall to lead into winter!

Effortless, multi-use, classic black bag .. How do I not already have one!?!

K, nevermind the sexy hot pink platforms, that snakeskin screams sexy! I think I have a new fall crush, snakeskin is back.

Family Baggage! Everyone is sporting a cute bag!

Okay maybe miu miu is a little out of price range … but how soft does that leather look? A yummy look for fall.

I love coloured bags and they can totally work for fall, the issue is making sure they look right, sometimes they look a little cheap.

I have one a few of those fury things and they are the perfect accessory for an accessory.  That bag is also beautiful!

 

I am on the hunt for a new fall bag/purse. I want something that is versatile and timeless. I have been cruising my favourite blogs (which are all given credit too - click on the pictures please) to find some inspiration. Brown, Black, Snake Skin and Colour is what I have narrowed it down too … not exactly a small list.

I cannot wait to get to the stores, fall fashion here I come.
