Fashion Blog Roundup #2: September

So, we've entered autumn, probably my favourite time of the year fashion-wise! I've started wearing my leather jackets again - oh how I've missed them! But, we're still getting the odd dose of sunshine, which means bare legs are still permissible every now and then. Thank god for that - as I hate wearing tights!

Here are four of my favourite outfits from September:

Amy Valentine, AmyValentinex.blogspot.co.uk, Paradise Circus - Amy looks absolutely incredible in this outfit! Those Missguided boots are killer and the Bitching & Junkfood top and shorts are just awesome. Plus, her bod is to die for! Amy's outfits are always bang on.
Charissa Rae, CharissaRae.com, Hanging On - I love bold, statement, dresses. Charissa's Motel dress is simple and perfect - the cut out shoulder are a cute detail too. I'm all over red at the moment so I'm majorly keen to steal this Motel number off of her!
Sophie Milner, FashionSlave.co.uk, Little Red - I'm also massively into tartan pieces too. Sophie's tartan Topshop top is an ideal piece. I love how she's styled it smart-casual in this post, paired with a tan Marc B bag - they look brilliant together!
Kim Parslow, SweetMonday.co.uk, Monochrome Madness - Kim's Missguided trousers remind me of my jumpsuit (here), but I still need these in my life! I'm a massive monochrome fanatic myself, so I bloody love this outfit. Good old statement trousers eh!

Whose outfits have you been loving this month? Are you an autumn fashion-lover like me?

Ps. I also write a post for the Everything5Pounds.com blog this week! Read it here.

Fashion Blog Roundup #2: September

Black + Red

Panther Print Jumper | OASAP *

Beanie | New Look

Red Envelope Clutch Bag | NotOnTheHighStreet.com *

Gold Box Chain Necklace | BHS

Riding Pant Dupes | River Island

Boots | Daisy Street *

This outfit actually features three items I've been after for an age: a Givenchy style top, some riding pant dupes and a red bag. 

This jumper from Oasap really reminds me of the Givenchy rottweiler tee. As much as I liked the dupes on eBay, I just never really needed another t-shirt. But this jumper is perfect to start off my Autumn wardrobe this year and actually came pretty speedily considering it's journey all the way from China to Derby!  

After seeing so many fashion bloggers donning riding pants this time last year I've been hankering after a more affordable option. River Island have these for £32 - although my first pair were faulty (and I had a right palaver getting them delivered to store!), I''ve now finally got a good pair! They're so good for work, I'm glad I bought them!

And lastly, I am in LOVE with this Not On The High Street bag. Red is going to be massive this AW so I cannot wait to wear this bag with my (more often that not) black outfits. It's incredibly good quality and is handmade I believe - what a barg for just £24!

Some of my long-tym followers might recognise this backdrop from my verrrry early outfit photos! As I mentioned in my last post, I've popped down to my parents'. I have not missed the whiff of manure, but homemade cake and casseroles - ohhh yeahhh.

Not Such a Lazy Oaf.

Caged Crop Top | Daisy Street

Bandana Skirt | Lazy Oaf

Kimono | Select

Body Chain | eBay

Topshop Arabel Studded Cut Out Boots | next2nowt.com

Man, things have been buuuusy in the life of Rob (what a comical title eh?!).

I was supposed to sort out this blog post over a week ago, hence the decent weather and flesh on show... but that clearly did not happen! So do not fear - I fully understand it's flipping freezing outside at the moment and certainly did not wear this today. If I had, I think I'd have blue skin or summin'. Well, it'd match the skirt...

I grabbed this skirt from the Lazy Oaf sale (on their website) a few weeks back, as they were doing 20% off of all stock. The cheeky little blighter has been in the back of my mind since I saw it months ago. So when I saw I could get it for around a tenner with delivery I was SO there.

I'm heading back down to Somerset (my previous home) for a few days with my 'rents soon. So perhaps you'll be lucky enough catch some photos of cows, cats (not native to Somerset, they're my own) and country pals on my Instagram / Twitter. Offttt you lucky lot you. 

Anddd I just remembered... I need to pack! Off I trot - see y'all soon!

Jumper, Topshop Skirt, Topshop Cut Out Boots, Rucksack | Next2Nowt.com

Snapback | eBay

Above Knuckle Rings | Primark

So, my obsession with next2nowt has gone to the next level it would seem. I just can't get enough of their bargains!

This babe of a rucksack (I think it's Topshop) was just £12 and is in perfect condition. It matches these cut out boots perfectly. Think I'll be using this a lot this autumn! I've also been on a major hunt for a check skirt after being wooed by loads of Clueless-inspired outfits. This one was only £9 and I think it'll be brill paired with tights for the fast-approaching colder weather. Although, must admit, I really hate wearing tights - ruddy things!

This is the first day I've worn a full-on knitted jumper for so long. It feels peculiar! Looks like I'll have to don the dreaded  tights soon too then, darn it. 

Ps. Wonder if any of you have noticed - I've had about 3 inches snipped off my locks!

Lipstick | 17 Red Devil

I've been browsing Choies for months now after seeing so many flipping incredible pieces on other bloggers. I was lucky enough to be given some store credit a few weeks back. After a quick browse I had a toss up between getting a two-piece outfit like this one (HOW awesome. Cloud print co-ords!), or getting a Lazy Oaf inspired (I'd say!) combo. After a long debate in my small brain, I opted for the latter.

I'll tell you now, waiting for an overseas parcel (admittedly, free postage) isn't the most enthralling thing. But by jingo it was worth it. So glad I chose these two pieces now as I'm loving my flower and bone get-up. Even if I probably look somewhat eccentric - hopefully in a cool way.
