T by Alexander Wang long-sleeved mini dress;  Witchery taupe suede ankle boots (similar here);  Louis Vuitton Stephen Sprouse leopard print scarf;  Mulberry black oversized Alexa;
MAC Driven By Love lipglass;  China Glaze It's Alive nail polish; 

So, as you can see, summer is well and truly over!  Excuse the off-centredness of these photos, I had to stand under the eave so my camera (*cough* hair *cough*) wouldn't get wet!

I'm absolutely in love with this dress, it's so comfortable to wear, and so warm!  I'm usually quite uncomfortable wearing something so fitted as my body is very pear-shaped, but I quite like how it looks.  I've already thought of a million ways to wear it in autumn/winter, it's just so versatile.

I haven't taken nail polish photos in aaaaages, but I just had to post this one.  It's so different from any other polishes I own, it's pretty in almost an ugly way.

  1. It may be a rainy day in these pictures, but your style is bright and sunny (even with the dark colors). Your beautiful smile and lovely face surely bring sunshine to any cloudy day. Your lipstick is bold and lovely. The booties and animal-print scarf offer a nice color diversion. You look alluring, Aelie.

  16. That is such a strange nail polish colour but it's so pretty! Your lipcolour suits you so well, it looks amazing against your dark hair! I am quite a pear shaped lassy as well, so I tend to shy away from fitted things, but I may just have to invest in a dress like yours as it looks so flattering!

    I'm so glad winter is on it's way, I much prefer winter dressing to summer dressing. Audrey does too being the owner of a beautiful fur coat ;)
