My Autumn Wardrobe Essential

I bought this ASOS open-back lace top waaaay back in spring when I thought summer was on the cards. Of course, spring/summer this year was the wettest in 100 years (and cold too) so I only ended up wearing this top once. Not great when your ethos is to 'buy less, wear more'.

If it wasn't for my summer holidays in France and Ibiza, I honestly would have gone insane and jumped on the first plane back to Australia to live somewhere sunny (obviously not my native Melbourne!).

Anyway I digress, the only good thing to come of autumn's arrival is that I'll be living day in, day out in my A.P.C trench coat. This trench was definitely my favourite purchase this year, and is perfect for dewy mornings and chilly autumnal evenings.

If you don't own a trench coat, let me tell you it's the best-wardrobe-staple-ever. See A.P.C's AW12 version of their classic trench coat here. NHG x

Outfit details: ASOS open-back lace top, A.P.C trench coat, Topshop leather mini skirt, Country Road leather belt, United Nude black sandals, Marc by Marc Jacobs 'Too Hot to Handle' tote.

  3. Your cheekbones girl! Gorgeous!

    I adore my navy trench - I wish beige worked for me but I just looked so washed out in it! Boo :(

  4. I am off to Boston in less than 2 weeks and am on the hunt for a new cream/beige trench as, would you believe, my darling mother has nicked mine! It is a good job that I love her...a lot x
