Heading out on early morning adventures recently, there's been a definite Autumn chill in the air that's left me shivering on the breezy train platform and thinking that I really need to be stocking up on some cosy pieces for layering as the weather gets colder. In Birmingham today, I really liked the homely feel of the New Look windows, and especially the rustic swings. With so many lovely things in the shops at the moment I've decided to put together a shopping list of ones I could do with adding to my wardrobe for the coming chill:
♥ Firstly a new coat which can handle fitting the poof factor of a lolita petticoat underneath it. I love my burgundy New Look one with its shiny gold buttons which I bought a couple of years ago and has a lovely flare to it, but would also like a softer colour to go with my pastel dresses.
♥ I've been feeling the urge to expand my sweater collection recently- there's just something so cosy about their long sleeves! My criteria? They must be both snuggly and cute.
♥ Scarves are an essential for the colder months and I could do with a little more variety of colour and weight. I really need to stop neglecting my poor little hands too and buy some pretty pastel gloves.
♥ I do have a weakness for sweet but practical ankle boots and these black Chelsea boots, complete with a satisfyingly chunky wood effect heel, are both chic and versatile.
♥ I'm a complete and utter tights addict and I very much want to add some jewel colours into the mix.
♥ Berets have been much neglected in my hat wardrobe but I keep seeing them styled in really cute ways to finish off lolita coords, so I'd like to try out one of my own.
What's on your shopping for the Autumn season?

Not Autumn already! It's set to be 26 degrees here in Bournemouth today & it was so warm yesterday too!
Love the look of some of those New Look pieces. I have a few coats and boots from last year in my wardrobe that need some love, but will most likely pick up a few new things too! H&M is looking excellent this season. xo

It's still quite nice and warm here, so I'm not quite ready to embrace autumn. I have seen a couple of coats I'll be adding to my wardrobe for the change of season, but nothing else so far.
The New Look pieces look lovely :) I'm with you on the tight addiction, I wear them almost everyday hehe a good coat is a definite must too!
ummmmmmm I think I'd like to try and expand my Cult Party Kei wardrobe a little, a love layering in Autumn/Winter but maybe with darker colours...I don't know, like a gothic version of Cult Party hehe
