Golden harvest hues, warm amber light and cosy life indoors are things that remind me that autumn is just around the corner. I love the night’s drawing in, the cool crisp days – I can put my mind off to my sewing projects and Diva Darling’s favourite picks.
Trendy studs, bold colours, layering of texture, chunky ankle boots and body harnesses accessories are all over this autumn. An array of coats dominated the catwalks from shearling aviator jackets and tailored 50s swing coat, sounds familiar?
I always have these in mind when I choose and purchase a new outfit - what will be seasonal, what will last, what will be inspiring for 6 months or a year from now? You can always layer both summer and autumn outfits and still be fashionable.
We’ve picked some of the best Peter Pan collared, structured dress, coloured peplums, metallic stud looks you’ll be seeing this autumn. Hurry up September!
Hope you will enjoy our August picks, have a lovely day everyone
Hugs,
