Hi Everyone! What a difference with this post and my last post switching from my summer holiday straight into Autumn/Winter fashion - where is the time going!! I must admit though as nice as it is dressing for summer I think I much prefer shopping at this time of year. All the nice fitted coats, chunky knitwear, cosy scarfs and numerous styles of boots get me excited for the coming months. With this in mind I thought I would put together a blog post with some affordable pieces from penneys in fact the whole lot came to just €92 - which when you think about it for a jacket, two jumpers, shirt, scarf and boots I must admit is hard to beat...
First up is this biker jacket I picked up for €28 just over a week ago now. I picked up a blush one very similar in Zara last year which I must admit I don't wear as much as I should as I'm always afraid of getting it dirty as its a light suede colour - which I know is ridiculous I need to wear that more! In hindsight this is a much more practical colour for everyday casual wear and I do love wearing khaki its one of my favourite colours to wear. Here I've paired it with the mustard jumper which was only €12 from penneys. Mustard is all over the shops at the minute as is red. I think the khaki and mustard work well together.
The boots I'm sure as your reading this alot of you have these in your shoe collection already. I bought something similar last year in black and silver from office and honestly had no desire to purchase another pair in any other colour. That was until I spotted a girl in Topshop with these on paired with black ankle gazer jeans - I actually went straight up to penneys and bought them they were fab on her! Again with the darker colour I think I will wear them alot in the coming months. The boots were €21. I got these before I went on holiday well over a month ago but I have seen some still left in penneys.
Here I just added a denim pair of jeans to show you how they could be styled... Obviously adding accessories like scarfs, jewellery and bags would style it up more.
Staying with the mustard jumper, how nice is this embroidered shirt that I featured recently on my instastories. If you look closely at the embroidered detail it has the same colour on the leaves as the jumper so I think the two would work together with the shirt underneath the jumper. The shirt was €13.
Up close details...
Again you can add the boots into this look instead of pairing with the jacket your adding in the shirt...
Next up is the same embroidered shirt paired with this gorgeous red jumper you would have seen recently over on my instagram which when I put up I got so many questions on. The jumper is vibrant, warm, cosy and soft but more importantly affordable at only €12. As seen above I paired it with the mustard jumper but here again with the embroidered shirt it blends together very well. I think underneath this jumper with a slight pop of the red embroidered flower detail showing your onto a lovely Autumn outfit. Paired with jeans, tights and a black skirt etc you have a very affordable day outfit but you could also pair the shirt on its own with some skinny jeans for a dressier night time outfit as the shirt is cropped it could be tucked into high waisted jeans and just add heels and possibly a red bag...
Details...
Just add some jeans to complete the look...
I recently wore the jumper over on my instagram.
I paired it with all black.
Boots €21
I love this scarf I picked up for €6 I went for the grey with the white stripe as I know it will go with loads of outfits as its a neutral colour and a good accessory to have in my wardrobe.
I think the grey will go lovely with a pop of colour too like above with the red jumper.
Pop of colour and pinstripe...
Scarf €6
So there you have it for €92 I think some key pieces to mix and match, to suit any budget and more importantly I think some daywear that would suit loads no matter if your a Mum, college student, someone looking for casual wear, someone on a budget - nice fashionable pieces to suit all ages. Again thanks for reading and I would love to hear over on my instagam if this was a post you enjoyed reading as much as I enjoyed piecing it together.
