Boots

Autumn is here

whether we like it or not

(not)

Some things you expect to bring into early autumn with you

Black linen trousers

Lightweight but warm knitwear

Tops with big sleeves

And some items I’m going to challenge you to wear all year round

White dresses

Flats

Black boots

Yes black boots

You can wear them now

with nude tights and a leather skirt

How amazing would that look

but that might be too much

Don’t make it too heavy

Black tights would definitely make it too heavy right now

Maybe a longer skirt

Still wear the nude tights

but pair with longer skirt and maybe a silk shirt

Early autumn isn’t a time too hide in your winter woollens

It’s time for a little more adventure

Pull out your black boots

and have an adventure

Don’t let yourself hide

We’re so good at hiding

But don’t let yourself do that

Get your boots out

and find something beautiful to wear with them

True style is in the details

Find a chunky cuff

or large silver rings

Choose the items that resonate with you

Style isn’t about putting something on

but rather it’s about revealing something previously hidden

And bold choices give you the courage to reveal that which you might like to keep hidden

Style is courage

Be courageous
