It's Still That Same Old Movie That's Haunting Me

This is what I wore on a day off recently when we went to meet friends for lunch and a movie (we saw About Time, I cried like a baby).

Autumn came on quite suddenly, one minute it was sweltering, the next I was digging out my heavy scarves and gloves. Autumn is my favourite season, I love that it's chilly enough to wear light layers but not freezing. I also love the Autumn colours in nature as well as fashion and make up. For now I'm wearing a transitional wardrobe keeping some bits from my Summer wardrobe like this bag and scarf. I bought the scarf at the start of the summer and wore it non-stop over the past few months. You may already know scarves are my style weakness. I got these boots as a birthday present last month, they are very similar to the ones I got last year and are so comfortable, they're great for wearing when I'm on my feet in work. I wanted this Michael Kors Buckle ring for ages and then I saw this one in work and figured I'd get that instead as it was much less expensive and a bit too much of a trend to spend so much money on. 

For make up I'm still going with just mascara on my eyes, full brows and bright lips. It's so quick to do in the mornings and makes me look put together for work without spending too much time on the application. I do love the whole matching nails and lips thing and I couldn't resist pairing my new Revlon lip gloss with one of my favourite No7 nail polishes. I am excited to start wearing darker colours coming into October and I already have some ideas for make up looks I want to try out. 

What's your favourite thing about Autumn?

Hope you all are having a lovely week so far!

  2. You look absolutely beautiful as always, dear Emma! As you might excpect. my favorite thing about autumn is temperatures in the tolerable 80s instead of the intolerable 90s. I envy you for having to dig out heavy scarves and gloves. I don't even do that in the dead of winter.

    I'm having a great week and I hope you and Donnacha are as well, dear friend!

    1. I can't imagine that kind of heat Tom, I have to say I was desperately looking forward to Autumn this year after the unbearable heat!

  3. You look lovely Emma. The shoes and bag are beauties. You are lucky to have such radiant skin that doesn't require too much make up. I love Autumn too. I wish October could last longer though xx

    PS. Love that Roxy Music song :) x

    1. I couldn't find it on the site to link it, it may have gone into Summer sale as I got it back in April! I love it though, such a handy size and I love the colour!

    1. Yeah I'd like Autumn a lot more if it was followed by Spring, I think it's not knowing what kind of weather you're going to get that's the worst! and Thank you so much Moira, I still can't believe it!
