WINE?! Yes please.
I take mine over ice, Pinot Grigio from the Adelaide Hills, please.
But I’m not here to talk to you about the delicacy of wine, although I may be sipping on one as I write this, I am hear to talk about the colour wine, the new trending colour of the season, a deep red, almost burgundy that compliments the fellow colours of the season, mocha, fern & mint green, a touch of butter yellow and a few hints of dark purple, dusty pink and cobalt blue.
With March upon us and the beauty that is autumn, it brings some cooler afternoons and nights, (although I’m not feeling it but that could be the peri menopausal) so this means we can start to introduce an item for layering here and there when the cool air finds us.
It’s so hard to continually stay on trend with a forever changing world of fashion, not to mention the cost and how impractical and exhausting at times it is – I mean, I love the neutral linen trend but I am a mum of 4 boys, even with shares in Napisan, I still can’t keep my whites white and my brights brighter.
So I want to introduce to you a few stand out trends for the coming season and maybe you can pick and choose a few ideas to add to your wardrobe that doesn’t hurt the bank account or see you jumping on the fast fashion wagon too heavily, remembering the colour trends above that we are going to see this Autumn.
Knit jumpers and cardigans are starting to pop up and they are taking oA with the new trend of extra large, gold, even beach themed buttons. Twin sets are still a big thing, they are just moving from short shorts and Cami tops to oversized sleeved shirts and pants, and still linen, they are just so dreamy and oh so comfy.
Knit crochet is coming back, this boho inspired look is running quickly onto the shelves, with flowy skirts, maxi dresses and knit coord sets giving it a good little nudge, alongside the return of leopard print – I love a good animal print to keep things spicy.
Speaking of spicy, what on Earth is this Spicy Margarita and Cowgirl thing that’s going on, I mean, I love a good Margi but wow, who knew? So yes, the oversized, artwork tee era is upon us and you can choose all things mermaid, cowgirl, spicy and whatever else tickles your fancy, if you’re into that kinda thing.
My worst nightmare of skinny jeans is going to see a return on the streets but just because someone in a shiny New York office says that its ‘FARRSHUN darling’, doesn’t mean that we have to partake….and I will leave that here, parked and silenced, this one is on you.
Lastly, if you haven’t already ladies, grab yourself a pair of chunky platform sandals or heeled thongs, this trend for the ladies is not going anywhere and can elevate any outfit from day to night AND there’s less chance of a broken ankle when they aren’t 10 inches high!
But just remember, this is all just chit chat about clothes, it doesn’t define who we are as a woman but, the reason I love what I do, is because a good outfit can help us feel confident and by feeling confident on the outside, we can start to regain our confidence on the inside…and that’s what matters most.
Have a great month ladies…Love H xx
