So here I am, the girl that has indeed been wishing for summer for months. But I want to say “Hello” to July only to then ask if can I have September now? Yes that is indeed correct what you have just read, what a sorry little love affair I endure with seasons. I’m wishing for Autumn right now, slightly craving that Christmas cheer. My lack of contentment drives my desire for change, change I choose.
Question me if you must, about why I’m so supposedly ready to embrace a new academic year, a new season, a new everything really while others have not even tasted a true summer yet, merely snatched weekends of bliss when downpours on our country are briefly halted. My answer will read this: I do not know.
I could not tell you precisely why, only inform your with slight snippets and vague idea’s suggesting the reasons behind my thoughts. One of them lies in fashion, I no longer know if that will surprise you or not readers. After a good few years faithfully following catwalk shows, I’ve come to the conclusion that A/W beats S/S any day, no single solitary doubt about it. Come on, lets face it…who really cares what they dress like in summer? Its either to hot for you to pay much attention with your one and only focus being on not baking alive, or to cold for you to master the art of 70’s jumpsuit with a plunging neckline complete only with le floppy hat, impossible for it to stay on your head with the typical British met office warnings.
While A/W, it just offers so much, so many layers to tell stories with, not just a minimal white dress or two but heavy, thick fabrics for you to sink into during frosty dark mornings and darker nights. Polka dots & prints of every form imaginable are forecast to be everywhere by October, and considering that’s my basic uniform, I’m pretty damm happy. Then of course there is androgyny, I truly adore it. Excluding all things 50’s, I think its actually my favourite fashion trend- and on another note its also practical, I’m currently on a hunt for the perfect pair of brogues that will obey to keep out the snow and rain, you open toe wedges couldn’t do that. Think about it, over sized or fitted blazers with a luxe silk lining, and a classic crisp white shirt. Perfection. And if you thinking how to channel that into Christmas parties, delve into the possibility of loafers, with heels…falling more in love with them by the day.

Take inspiration from Ralph Lauren if you will. From the cut of the garments, to the flash of the red painted lips and stiletto's and then the sleek razor sharp, everything is a simple statement on its own, then added together, wow. Just wow.
