Weekly Wishlist; 13/09

---

As we edge closer to the autumnal months, more and more anticipation is surfacing around what are going to be this season's biggest trends.

Rather than categorising this week's wishlist by store, I'll be showcasing what's available in numerous stores in reference to specific trends and items.

knee high boots

As opposed to previous seasons which have showcased alternative knee-high boot styles, this year's more prominent style is Western inspired and just below the knee.

I love this style of boot in classic black, however the white/cream colour-way provides a stand-out pop of colour amongst darker outfits during AW.

PLT and Public Desire have a number of differentiated styles of this type of boot.

cropped blazers

I really love cropped blazers as a transitional piece, having versatility in their shapes, fabrics, sleeves and colours. They're an innovative alternative to the heavily sought after boyfriend-fit oversized blazer which has proven its popularity in past seasons.

nude wide leg trousers

I have recently ordered this nude pair of wide leg trousers from Motel Rocks and I love them - they're super comfortable and versatile. I can already see myself styling these in numerous ways this season as they fit right into the neutral style I love.

platform ankle boots

With a more grungey take on a Chelsea style boot, platform ankle boots are a must-have in my wardrobe this season. For me, this style is also a more wearable version of the classic Doc Marten.

I love the pairing of these Docs with this shacket.

Weekly Wishlist; 28/08

In the interest of both keeping on top of the latest high street trends and the formulation of my personal AW20 capsule wardrobe, this post will commence my new series 'Weekly Wishlist'. Each week throughout the season I'll post a number my favourite of items/new in pieces from a variety of online and high street stores.

ZARA

To start things off, I've been loving Zara's new in as we transition into the new season - the store particularly excels during AW, having the perfect pieces when looking for buildable basics and staples for the colder months.

As mentioned in my previous August trends post, the sweater vest is well and truly on trend right now. Zara currently have this pastel mint version, comprising of a thick, high-quality material, making it a perfect transitional piece with the option to wear it alone or layered.

Their matching wide-leg trousers make this an effortless look whilst still being right on trend.

Again, being another transitional staple, this trench coat is one of the most classic trench styles out there and a must have in my wardrobe this AW season.

These mules are perfect for the milder weather, providing slightly more coverage than a summer variation. Adaptable for multiple occasions, this again is a must-have.

I'm particularly excited about the adaptation of summer colour trends into the AW season. This pink knit is a simple yet on-trend addition to brighten the darker tones in outfits we lean towards in the colder months.

Perhaps my favourite piece of Zara's current new in is this oversized camel polo knit. Oversized fits are a timeless trend, however the adaptation of a regular polo on this particular piece makes it simple yet different from other similar items available right now.

This Bottega inspired leather shoulder bag in khaki green is the perfect Autumn staple this season.

---

H&M

Inspired by Hailey Beiber's recent styling of a leather trench, this different take on the classic look is something I'm looking to introduce into my AW wardrobe. Styled with white wide leg trousers and a white crop, this is sure to be an effortless addition to co-ords and basics.

These cashmere wide leg trousers are a perfect cohesion between comfort and effortlessness.

I love this wrap cardigan, a great alternative to a simple over-head knit or sweater vest, and again is so simple to layer with other pieces.

This shacket is my favourite piece of H&M's new in, being a great alternative to a blazer for a more dressed-down look.

ASOS

Styled with a black leather jacket and black boots, this knitted tunic vest is perfect for an everyday Autumn look.

I love this oversized off-white leather look biker jacket. One of my biggest style muses Hailey Bieber is seen styling this look of jacket in numerous ways, making it a timeless street style piece.

As an Autumnal adaptation of last season's tie-dye trend, this Missguided stone acid wash shirt is a perfect transitional piece showcasing the hugely popular trend, anticipating its popularity in the season to come.

This particular style of sweater vest is more fitted and not as easy to layer, however resonates a smarter style as opposed to the more common oversized fit, like the first Zara find.

SS/AW Transitional Pieces

trench coats

Lightweight and adaptable, trench coats are a must-have timeless transitional piece going into the Autumn/Winter season for an everyday effortless look.

sweater vests

As mentioned in my previous post, sweater vests have proven to be vastly popular in the spring/late summer months this year. The ability to layer or wear as an independent piece allows for a variety of styles going into the colder months.

suit trousers

As an alternative to jeans, suit/tailored trousers encompass a smarter silhouette whilst still having the potential to also be dressed down.

colour palettes

Earthy tones are becoming increasingly popular as we enter the latter of the summer months, and they've been anticipated further going into AW20.
