September Dressing

By Hellofreckles @tashajsteel
The days are getting a little shorter, but don't pack away the summer wardrobe yet.

Maybe it's because I'm a Northern girl, but I'm certainly in no rush to fold up my summer dresses and hide them at the back of my wardrobe. I think there's still some time left to style up those tea dresses for the transition into autumn. All you need is a trusty leather jacket and a pair of boots.
It's usually around this time of year the occasion dresses start making their way to the high street and as much as I like to layer up, bring out the knitwear and berry tones, I’m holding out a little longer with bare legs and boots until I see the leaves falling.
Now I will admit, I have seen the odd tree with a slight orange hue, but that’s not putting me off just yet. If anything I think the colours in these two dresses will compliment the seasonal surroundings, or that’s what I’m telling myself! When I do feel like fully embracing the A/W wardrobe, I’ll be looking to add this burgundy flute sleeve number to pair with a statement necklace and over the knee boots.
The staple leather jacket had to make an appearance. I firmly believe that everyone should have an AllSaints jacket in their wardrobe, it’s an essential in my eyes that will instantly finish off an outfit and looks great on those down days when you’ve just chucked it on over jeans and a simple tee.
Are you planning to keep your summer wardrobe in rotation a little longer or are you ready to switch it up for Autumn?
