mesh layering & faux fur

I love how Autumn posts look. The lighting is so much better, there's all these beautiful colours everywhere & I can't help but love the new leaf flooring we've got. Today felt like the perfect time to bring my big, fluffy, faux fur coat out of retirement.. just in time for the colder weather that's on its way.

Now, don't get me wrong.. I love this coat. However, it is the sort that makes me worry that I look like a blonde gorilla. With faux fur, there's always that difficult balance between looking cosy but cute, and not just like a rather round furry creature. I think this coat just about avoids that. Above all, it is warm. With winter so close, that's a priority! 

The little Topshop shirt is one I picked up for the Cosmo Blog Awards. For me, spending £30 on a top is a lot! Fortunately, I love it just as much as I hoped I would and have been wearing it to death. Today I wore it over my much adored Boohoo mesh crop, but it's also been paired over turtle necks, with cardigans & on its own when I've dared going sleeveless. Why does the British winter have to be so chilly?!

  5. I love this coat, you defiantly don't look like a 'blonde gorilla'. The best thing about A/W is fur coats.
