My Super affordable AW15 Shoe and Boot Wishlist

It's that time of year when Summer has come to an end and all the Autumn/Winter clothes are being put out in store and the sales have started. You only have to look out of your window today to see how utterly horrid the weather is right now.

Now I love Autumn, it is one of my favourite seasons, leaving work to go home just as dusk begins, earlier closing of the curtains and more of an excuse to light candles and be snug.  One thing I do love is looking for chunky knits, leggings and boots with the latter being one of my favourite items to buy. Autumn footwear is so much better than Summer, no manky toes on show for one, and I have so many pairs of shoes and boots that I want to buy.

I like two things about shoes or boots - they need to be wide fit and they must be fairly flat.  I am not a fan of heels and having flat feet find heels a nightmare to spend the day in.  So if my boots or shoes have any sort of heel at all, I keep a pair of flats with me at work or in my bag just in case.

There are quite a few places I like to buy shoes from online - ASOS, Shoetique, New Look and sometimes TK Maxx who are great when it comes to brands and decent sizing.  So Biker Boots, Knee High Boots, Cowboy Boots and Emu Boots usually all in black are what I need and here are the ones I currently have my eye on!

Naturally, I am a tad obsessed with my Emu Boots which I never thought I would like as I hated Ugg Boots, but I do love mine and ideally need to replace them.   When it comes to Knee High Boots, I like rider style boots and one which are of a more military style, so for this Rieker Boots are perfect and they go with all outfits I am likely to wear.

When it comes to shorter boots, I really like laced boots or ankle boots which are a little bit different and both ASOS and New Look have some amazing boots in right now.

I am also a fan of Ballerina style pumps, especially when I am at work as they are much more comfortable and I have some similar to the Adesso shoes which are Leopard print and the Lotus Black ones which are from TK Maxx, both exceptionally comfy and both work well with trousers, jeans, skirts of dresses.

How to wear the AW14 Blanket Scarf

With autumn well and truly announcing its arrival, the one accessory that seems to have really taken off is the 'Blanket Scarf', a trend I have seen more and more of my friends mention on social media.

Whether it is striped, checked, an Aztec design or with fluffy bits, there are quite a few I am liking the design of.  With that in mind, Accessorize have produced a YouTube video to show have you can use just one scarf and wear it in five different ways:

Have you got a blanket scarf? How do you wear it?

The Autumn Tag 2014

As you know, the lovely Georgina from Makeup-Pixi3 loves her seasonal tags and with Autumn being her favourite season of the year, a new one for 2014 has been created, so I thought I would.  If you're reading this, you're tagged!  If you tag me in the tweet when you share it, I'll RT it too :D

1.  Ok we're talking coffee's - what's your favourite seasonal drink from Starbucks/Costa/Cafe Nero etc?

I gave up coffee almost a year ago now and tea as well to try and not be so dependent on it to get me through the day.  So now I drink a few fruit teas and things like Jasmine tea, the decaffeinated version.  So for me this Autumn, I am going to be looking forward to all of the hot chocolates which Starbucks and Costa have on offer to tempt me in!

2.  Accessories - what do you opt for, scarf, boots, gloves?

I like big chunky kit scarves for outdoors, but indoors I am a pretty girly scarf kind of girl.  I hardly ever wear gloves as ive got small hands and therefore hide them up the sleeves of my coat. Boots, I am a cowboy/biker boot kind of girl and I am yet to find some for this year!

3.  Music - what's your favourite music to listen to during Autumn?

My musical tastes don't change really. I am a rocker at heart and love bands like Queen, Five Finger Death Punch, 

4.  Perfume - what's your favourite scent for this time of year?

Bvlgari Pour Femme is one I always wear on special occasions, but I am absolutely loving DKNY perfumes right now and am intending to add my collection, as they are so wearable.

5.  Candles - what scents will you be burning this season?

I am currently burning Aromatherapy Associates Inner Strength Candle which is brilliant for relaxing after a hard day.  I am a huge candle fan and love to have something in each room.

6.  What do you love most about Autumn?

The dark nights drawing in and being able to get home, close the curtains, switch a lamp on and light some candles to sit back and relax.  I also love watching as the tress begin to loose their leaves and allowing my inner child to come out and collect conkers!

7.  Favourite makeup look?

Still a neutral girl with a pinky/nude lipstick.  I do however opt for darker nail polish, especially deep berry shades which I absolutely adore.

8.  What are you looking forward to most in Autumn?

Other than Halloween and Bonfire night, two dates I absolutely love, it will then soon be Christmas!  As soon as Autumn arrives, winter is banging on the door which means Christmas shopping, sparkles, roasted chestnuts!

Don't forget to tweet me your posts and mention Georgina as the creator of the tag :)  and also let me know if you have done it/ are doing it, so I can come and read your answers.
