Planning My Autumn Wardrobe (With Summer Sale Items)

Who doesn't love a good sale? When I see those big bold red letters that read SALE I'm immediately drawn to it, despite most of the time not needing anything! There's nothing wrong with just having a look around now is there?

When I heard of the website lovethesales.com I thought I'd just take a look to see what was available, and I was surprised to see how many brands are always on sale in just one place. At this point of the year, I'm already thinking of autumn, like I told you in my last post, and I wanted to see if I could grab myself a few bargain pieces that not only would get me through the end of summer, the transition period to autumn but also right through fall, and that is exactly what I did. With countless trendy pieces, I grabbed myself a few things I will be wearing non-stop, as these trends are set to carry on through the next season and here they are!

BELL SLEEVE FLORAL DRESS

Floral prints are a summer given, not exactly groundbreaking but we all love the power flower. And, I've talked about wearing florals in the fall, and one the tips I give in that post is to go for a darker print. Deeper shades make a seasonal difference in your closet; plum, burgundy, ebony and dim grey, for example, are key fall shades that work extremely well with floral prints. Additionally, we are not yet done with the bell sleeve craze and I am so glad as I love dramatic sleeves, they add that little oomph to the outfit. Imagine this dress without these sleeves...it wouldn't have the same effect! 

For the end of summer wear this dress with flats and sandals, and for fall pair with some tights for warmth, ankle boots and a leather jacket, because #layering!

LACE UP BOOTS

Aka combat boots, but heeled ones. Combat boots are going to be huge next season so imagine my surprise when I found this gorgeous pair on sale! I'm a boots hoarder, and my collection grows every year and this is one pair I couldn't resist adding to the rest of them. It is extremely comfy thanks to its block heels and I cannot wait for the chillier weather to bring these out more often! At less than £20, it won't be breaking the bank either, an absolute bargain if you ask me.

For now, pair it with a skirt or a dress for a night out but come fall, these will look good with pretty much anything! I'm thinking serious rocker/biker vibes, maybe an all black outfit with a bit of faux fur and a nice crossbody bag.

For accessories, I chose this Na-kd pair of sunglasses, also from the sales. I had heard of the brand before but never tried anything, and I'm glad it didn't disappoint. These sunglasses are a little different than anything I own, somewhat classier and when I think of winter, faux fur and an elegant outfit, these will come in handy. They are very good quality despite the small price tag and I can't wait to explore more of Na-Kd as I've seen so many of you wearing their stuff!
