when autumn leaves start to fall

Dress* - Lovestruck
Blazer - H&M
Necklace - H&M
Boots  Primark
Lipstick - Revlon Just Bitten Kissable in Crush and Bourjois lipgloss in Framboise Magnific

With an injection of rusty browns and burnt umber shades into my wardrobe, I am finally feeling suitably Autumnal. I am ready to embrace my 100 denier tights and am enjoying shopping the highstreet for an abundance of cosy knitwear and a much needed winter coat! I absolutely love the rich colour of this tunic, which does looks a little shiny in these photos, but is definitely not so in real life. I like the contrast detailing around the sleeves and neckline and thought it worked perfectly with some chunky-heeled boots, a statement necklace and some very berry lips. The revlon Just Bitten Kissable balms are so nice and Crush really is the perfect shade for a vampy, wine-stained lip. It is so rich and glossy to apply and it really did last me all day; even surviving my extra creamy hot chocolate and sugar-laden doughnut!

I hope you are all well and having good weeks. The week is flying by for me and I can't believe that on Thursday in is the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards already! I am so excited to see everyone at the party on Thursday, and whatever the result may be - I am just so pleased to have been nominated. :)

ps, I have finally gotten round to announcing my Style Compare winner. Thank you all for entering and the winner is Zaynab. Congratulations, I hope you enjoy your prize!
