Avoid the Autumn Blues with these Signature Style Tips

Autumn is finally upon us. Summer was great while it lasted but those long, hot days followed by late nights in the garden are soon to be a thing of the past. Now, autumn has officially set in and this means the return of the wind and rain. So, with this in mind, it is time to put the shorts and vests upstairs in the attic. But, instead of getting last year’s gear down, why not spruce up your wardrobe? There’s no reason you can’t be as fashionable in autumn as you were in summer.

autumn fashion tips

1) Accessories for Any Occasion

Scarves are the ultimate autumnal accessory, providing the perfect balance between warmth and style. Scarves are incredibly popular because they can be as formal or as informal as you like. As well as this, if you’re opting for a particular theme or trend, then a scarf can be the accessory that pulls it all together.

Scarves may be a universal accessory but, if you’re looking to shine this autumn, you’ll want earrings like the ones offered by Diamond Geezer. Diamonds, silver and chrome are all at the height of fashion at the minute so, if you’re looking to ‘wow’ when you get to the office, look no further than this ultimate accessory.

2) Stylish and Elegant Boots

Just like last autumn, boots look set to dominate the high street. Let’s face it, autumn is no time to have our toes and feet showing – it is far too cold for that. Tan ankle boots look as though they will dominate the high street and, what’s more, they’re appropriate for almost any occasion.

A good quality pair of leather boots is a purchase that will last for many years to come. They’ll almost always be in style so it is wise to spend a little extra and invest in a pair that will last.

3) Coats that Keep the Cold Out

Bulky outerwear is set to be big this autumn and winter. With the excellent temperatures we have seen this summer, it looks as though the cold will definitely set in this winter. Big, bold and bulky can still be fashionable and, although I’d advise the shorter the coat the better, you shouldn’t be scared to experiment with your style. Buy what you’re confident in (it could be a long winter).

So, those are our three fashion trends that look set to dominate autumn and winter 2013. From expensive diamonds to cheap scarves; there’s an option for everyone.
