Float Down Like Autumn Leaves

So Autumn is finally here in full force and I couldn’t be more excited. I’m sure most of you know by now that doing outfit shoots with the yellow, gold and red hues of the leaves is one of my favourite things as it just livens up the photos and makes them so intense. I can’t be without colour, so mixing jewel tones with the yellows just works perfectly! Luckily this is what it looks like very near where I live so I couldn’t be happier at the moment! We shot these photos on Sunday when it was fresh enough to need a few layers and a hat, but still slightly warm enough to be out and about for a while without getting too cold.

For my outfit, I opted to wear my Denimocracy Anarchy Knit leggings as I often reach for these to wear with boots in the Autumn time due to the comfort and ease of wearing. I tucked them into my DUO Laurel boots and then layered on my Zara cobalt blue jumper, an Urban Outfitters purple cardigan and then my Zara black structured coat. I adore layering as you can get some great effects with it and some really nice colour combinations too! To bring even more colour to the blue and purple, I chose my Cambridge Satchel Mini in yellow (similar here) and then finished off with a new cat ears hat that I picked up from Zara.

I really quite like how this turned out actually and I think this might be my new favourite Autumn shoot at the moment! Speaking of DUO though, I attended their bloggers #DuoBootTribe event in their Bath flagship store last week and had so much fun! I met some lovely new fashion bloggers as well as familiar faces and I can’ wait to share that night with you soon in a separate post! I’m such a fan of the brand since they do calf sizes, which means I always get boots to fit considering I have bigger feet and tiny calves! But anyway, I would love to know your thoughts on this look that I put together! Comment and let me know!

P.S – I hope you like the falling leaves feature I’ve added to my blog again! I love it!

      Thank you Kim! Yeah, they change at different times don’t they! Not all of them have gone yellow yet.

    I must agree with you about outfit posts and autumn, they do look so much nicer with the beautiful colours of the leaves in the shoot.

    That bag is lovely.

    What a perfect Fall outfit! I do love jewel tones against black…and now I have more of a reason to attack Zara for reals now…haha 🙂

    I love the pop that yellow bag gives this outfit! I’m not usually into yellow but you rocked it.

    I can’t tell you how much I love these colors together. I would have never thought to incorporate a yellow purse, but it looks fabulous. Great idea.

    My 4th Favourite of your Autumn 2014 looks 🙂

    Gorgeous combination of colours and the layering is perfect. I love the hat! This outfit has such a playful vibe to it. It makes me want to rush out and kick some piles of leaves about. 😀
