2008 Autumn Wishlist
I know it’s a little early to be considering the wonderful season of Autumn but I’m the snuggliest person in the universe and I am hanging out to get back into my socks and tights. Here is a list of the things that I am coveting for Autumn this year…
* Over the knee or knee high socks
* Tights in every colour
* Black boots
* A long string of ivory coloured beads
* A rose garland necklace
* Vests
* A trench coat
* Converse All Stars
* A scarf/hood thingy (I think Diana Vreeland called them ’snoods’)
Here is Agathe from Style Bytes wearing one

I am going to go for a very layered come-frolic-with-me-in-the-daisy-filled-meadows kind of look this autumn…
Here are some ladies from Facehunter rocking the look

The white shirt and relaxed jeans are so casual and cool - I love it!

I adore coloured tights with Mary Janes. They make me want to click my heels and say ‘There’s no place like home!’

A delightfully floaty dress over tights and boots. I also love the severity of this girls hair. What a wonderful contradiction to the outfit.

Get twice the mileage out of your summer frocks by warming them up with toasty cardigans and scarfs.

Using black with purpose is so alluring. She’s not monotone at all, she is using all kinds of shapes and textures to get the most out of her black.
How about you? What are your Autumn cravings? Besides lasagne and red wine I mean…
Love Lady Smaggle

I want to be able to wear my black straightleg jeans without sweating like a mofo.
I have huge cravings for school-style jumpers (blue or grey wool v-necks), or black dresses with coloured tights.
Waistcoats with scarves.
And I’m really jiving on men’s shirts with my straightlegs at the moment, which I think I’d like to eventually wear with a woolen hat or a fedora, with a turtleneck underneath.
Oh I am so into the school jumper thing. Also wool vests that look school-style as well. The man shirt thing is very cool… how very starving academic of you!
My god, it’s wayyyyyy too early to think about Autumn! It’s stinking hot and humid and I’m fairly sure I’ll never need a jumper again.
Ah it’s wishful thinking from me Gervy. I’m a winter gal!
agathe looks like she’s wearing cowl over her head. just thought i’d pipe in with another name for that piece, if you’re looking around for one. i’ve been wearing them and making them for years, myself. interesting that they are all over the place now.
Tricia - Quite the trend setter you are! Do you sell them? And thanks for the extra name!
[…] Now that it’s starting to get majorly chilly here in the old Berra (Canberra for those of you don’t know where I live) I thought it might be time to seriously get cracking on my Autumn 2008 Wishlist… […]
