H&M have got it covered for aw 13. i very much assume this is the calm before the storm, as isabel marants collection for H&M is due in november. who’s excited? i’m itching! this collection covers plenty winter materials including imitation leather, wool and velvet, with a classic colour palette of black and white. beautiful draped styles, relaxed fits and floppy hats adds a subtle gothic mood. shop the collection here.

here’s some of my favourite pieces:

floppy hat, trousers, cape and skirt

having a new found love for pointed footwear, i’ve been wanting a pair of black pointed ballet flats and this pair from asos are the nicest i’ve come across. midweek purchase, why not? i picked these up in my normal size 5, but because they’re not a complete fit around the foot; i’ve had to go one size smaller.

they’re my new favourites!

& other stories is the beautiful baby of H&M. well presented, effortless, simple and straight to the point, this new brand is one of my very new favourites. the packaging is minimal and just what you need sitting on the dressing table, looking pretty and whispering ‘use me!’ i’m yet to order from them but as soon as i do, i’m sure you’ll hear about it!

white snake chain, topshop. minimal jewellery by “>lumo: silver bar chain & hex nut bracelet.

i recently won a voucher for lumo jewellery from the lovely stephanie toms at cocochic – thank you lady. it took me quite a while to chose what to purchase, their store is full of minimal pieces! the silver bar chain my favourite, it’s very delicate and brings a simple outfit together without overpowering. they have a pair of small hoop earrings that i’m very tempted to purchase next month! the topshop chain was a surprise to find in topshop, so i grabbed it without really thinking about it. £12.50 on a chain that snaps together with a magnet probably wasn’t the wisest choice i’ve made, but it looks lovely and i can see it being my new go to.
