Just because the sun is shrouded with clouds now that we're in the bliss of Autumn, it doesn't mean your wardrobe has to follow suit. I'm a big fan of colours throughout the year, but particularly when it's gloomy, as for me, it just puts a little bounce in my step.
I bought this dress by Simply Be a good while ago, but as ever, my wardrobes are littered with unworn clothes like this. It was, however the perfect dress to wear at a recent blogger event:
Dress: Simply Be^
Cardigan: South (via Very)^
Belt: Dorothy Perkins^
Shoes: Dorothy Perkins^
The dress is scuba and I was quite unsure trying it due to how split the opinion was amongst my fellow bloggers, but I thought "There's no harm in giving it a go" and tried it on as soon as it arrived. I must say, I actually quite like it! I rarely wear dresses with lots of structure so it was a nice change and I also loved how it held me in the middle, and strictly scooped out at the bottom. I think the mix of colours really helped as I'm not sure I would like it as much in a block colour, but it worked well with this dress.
I also don't wear pink a lot, but when I do I'm always surprised by how good it goes with my skin tone, and with the black cardigan and leggings this makes a perfect autumnal outfit.
So don't put your colour palette away just because the sun's hiding. Colour is awesome at any time of year!
'til next time.
Love and hugs,
