Autumn – SMALLCRAZY

OUTFIT – It’s Jumper (and Jacket) Season Again!

This is probably one of the ‘freshest’ posts I’m publishing – i.e. about something that occurred very recently. In fact, only days ago! *pats self on the back*Here’s something I wore over the weekend. I was somewhat missing Portuguese food (post-holiday blues) and so went to look for some in South London (Stockwell/Vauxhall).

I’ve had pretty much THE best summer I’ve ever experienced in London and I’m sad that I haven’t documented any of it on my blog.. but I guess it was because I was too preoccupied with having fun and living in the moment (what I do best!). I spent SO much time in the sunshine that I sported the very rare and very surprising ‘London tan’.

It was only last week when I returned from Portugal that suddenly.. it was.. not summer anymore. It was cold! I couldn’t go out in my bikini anymore, when I practically lived in them the last three months.

I remember saying to Aysha last Saturday as we traipsed around Portobello Market, “what the hell? I just bought two jumpers. what is happening?”

One of said jumpers is the one I’m wearing in this post:

Jumper – Vintage

Dress – Topshop

Shoes – Converse (vintage upcycled – they’re studded; unfortunately not visible in these pics)

If you saw me wearing this dress in real life, you would need to wear your sunnies. It’s SUPER BRIGHT (perfect).

Now that it’s inevitably autumn, it’s time to think about jackets and coats! I browsed Littlewoods to see what they had available and picked four of my favourites:

1 – South Leather Biker Jacket
2 – Bellfield Rannoch Acid Wash Parka
3 – French Connection Glorious Wool Coat
4 – South Waxed Swing Jacket

Quite essential items really – a leather jacket, wool coat, parka.. You need them all to survive! These were all selected from the Littlewoods range of winter coats.

And then everything else is a bonus – hello sequin jackets, patterned neon crazy cardigans, vintage jacket with a giant unicorn head stitched on.. etc…

The great thing about Littlewoods is that you have the option of paying for your clothes in monthly instalments. Not unlike buying a car or a house. Hmm.. I can’t decide if that’s a good or bad thing.. but I guess having the OPTION is pretty handy..

Before I Needed a Coat

Wore this perhaps a month ago – in October

We had taken a bus trip to Hammersmith to meet a friend, went grocery shopping together, and come back home to make the most delicious homemade soup dinner (among other things) I’d had in a while. We ate, drank, had silly conversations, and simply enjoyed each others’ company.

It was a good day 🙂

Red Heattech top Uniqlo
Grey tunic Topshop
Sand sleeveless wrap H&M
White knit children’s cardi + boots vintage

I wear these boots nearly EVERY DAY now
I can’t help it – they’re the comfiest pair I own and they keep me warm
I like to think that I’m loyal to it

Sigh.. back when a coat was yet to be needed..!

To my friend Meesh if you ever read this – we miss you dearly. What will we do without your loud voice and big hair!

Bright Autumn Leaves

Just sharing a few photos I took over the last two weeks – of fallen leaves
I love that everything turns so BRIGHT and VIBRANT
Bright WARM colours.. it’s so ironic

Anyway, cutting this short and going straight to the snaps : :

Hope you enjoyed them!
