The Sunday List #2
Your guide to what I've been loving on the internet this week
I’m just going to put a caveat up here before I begin sharing this weeks list as I’ve been thinking about it a lot. I talk about shopping wisely and carefully to create an edited wardrobe full of pieces you love and that means to stop buying ALL the stuff. So you might think, what the hell is she putting a post up every week about all the things she’s found. And I welcome the question.
These lists are there to guide you and help you if you feel things might be missing from your wardrobe. You’ll see that I tend to go for the items that have longevity and are classic pieces that you’ll have in your wardrobe forever.
You also might have something similar in your wardrobe that you’ve forgotten about, so please just take these items as ideas and if you feel they’d make a great addition to your wardrobe then fill your boots.
But if not, I genuinely don’t want to encourage anybody to buy for the sake of it. That’s not good for us or our precious planet.
So, the following items are pieces I’ve found and loved. A few items i’ve purchased as I feel they will bridge some gaps in my own wardrobe. And others, I just love so am sharing in case you do too.
First ten are for all subscribers and then the rest are for my paid subscribers. If you want to upgrade, you can click the link below.
#1
First up is this amazing two piece. Both shirt and trousers are £54.99 each. The set looks so expensive and a good alternative to the gorge Toteme one which would set you back nearly £1k.
#2
We’re coming into Autumn and saying goodbye to the hot weather (or what little we had of it). I love those days where a jumper is all that’s needed and this sweatshirt from Anine Bing is perfect. I predict that red is gonna be everywhere this winter and this is a great way to add in a bit of colour. Team with straight leg ankle length jeans and a simple white trainer. Perfect.
Sweatshirt, £160
#3
I’m loving a stud at the moment. I feel it’s a great way to add a bit of bling without being too feminine. It has more of a rock chick vibe, which I prefer to rhinestones or jewels. These two pieces from Cos are so good. I wouldn’t wear them both together as that would be overkill, but one or the other to dress up a simple outfit would be perfect.
#4
This shirt is on the top of my wishlist, I just love it. It’s not cheap, but I think it would be a great way to update your wardrobe. It’s got that classic element with a bit of an edge, which is so important when you’re tying to inject some personality into an outfit.
Shirt, £328
#5
If you’re looking to update your jewellery collection, then this sculptural dome ring is sooooo nice. And at £22 it’s such a great price.
Ring, £22
#6
I’m still loving the longer length waistcoats that were everywhere this summer and luckily they’re not just a one season wonder. Team with wide leg trousers for work or jeans for play. This tailored pinstripe one is so gorgeous, simple and elegant.
Waistcoat, £149
#7
In those transitional months its sometimes hard to get the layers right. It’s cold when you leave in the morning, but warmer by lunchtime. In these circumstances, I’m a fan of the sleeveless top, especially cashmere or wool as they let your skin breathe a bit. This Ganni one is so lush. I’d wear under a blazer or a cardigan. So cute.
Vest, £285
#8
Is it too early to talk about coats? I think not. We need to be prepared right? For the past few years i’ve invested in longer length coats, but all hail the return of the peacoat. This one is so so good. In love with the colour.
Coat, £64.99
#9
I love the new collaboration between Khaite and Oliver Peoples, the sunglasses are just so cool. The perfect update for your winter wardrobe. Even if the sun isn’t out, we still need to look cool right? Plus they hide a multitude of sins!!!
Sunnies, £425
#10
If you’re delving into your winter wardrobe and getting ready for the colder weather, then I want to tell you about this hat from Acne. OMG, I want, I need! So in love
Hat, £145
