Summers end? I'm still in sandals!

So it's the last day of Summer and I'm still wearing sandals, although the jeans have become a staple over the last week. I'm pleased to report that I've stuck to the 'Second hand September' pledge and have not bought 'new' or indeed anything second hand or preloved since the beginning of the month.

I've been too busy to search my favourite online stores and as I haven't posted for a while I haven't had an excuse to virtual shop either, which means I just haven't been tempted; and as the weather has been kind I haven't had a need to update my Autumn/Winter wardrobe yet!

I have been wearing my Jane Carr scarf a lot, see above, to inject some interest and colour into my late summer outfits. I purchased it at LFW static show in February last year because I loved the split design and colour combinations. I also purchased a darker tonal scarf which I posted about along with my other purchases at the time. Click on the link to see more.

Here I'm wearing it with a Massimo Dutti jacket, which is a large, and maybe a medium size would have been better in this style; as I've said before my past Massimo Dutti purchases have been hit and miss on sizing and not always consistent which has led to returns.

I'm also wearing a linen T-shirt by Massimo Dutti and my Lee jeans, which are a Scarlett fit, with a Zara woven belt, all old. My sandals are also from Zara and I've had them over 2 years, if not longer. They add  a bit of subtle sparkle and are a great 'go to' evening flat, especially on holiday. I'm always on the lookout for a great statement flat as I get so much wear from them, however I'm yet to find a good replacement for these! 

​No outfit builder today as I've shown all these items previously and I'm not searching for equivalent 'new' items so you aren't tempted to buy 'new' either. Instead do shop your own wardrobe, especially accessories and see if you can breathe new life into a scarf you haven't worn for ages!! I love these videos and tips from Nordstrom and YouTube video from Dominique Sachse (I've got hair envy!) 

​Or be inspired by this article from Harpers on 'How to be more stylish'.


Thanks for stopping by and bye bye Summer!
