What I Wore Wednesday: Meet Mostly Yummy Mummy

This week the very lovely and very stylish Mostly Yummy Mummy is stepping in and taking over the What I Wore Wednesday helm on my behalf. Unfortunately I've had to fly home to Ohio as my grandfather has passed away. I appreciate Sarah jumping in at the last minute and I hope y'all show her lots of love for helping me out! If you'd like to feature next week for me drop me an email x




(Leila dress - Joules, magenta tights - Marks and Spencer, glitter ankle boots - Primark, pearl bracelet and necklace - Eyre, watch - Michael Kors) 

It's safe to say that Autumn has well and truly arrived in Yorkshire and after a huge wardrobe sort out last week, I'm well and truly ready for it! I think autumn might actually be my favourite time of year and after having what felt like a real summer here this year, I'm ready to say goodbye to my sandals and hello to my boots. Especially when they happen to be glittery ankle boots like these! 

I picked up this dress from Joules earlier in the year in the sale and I love it. In fact, I love it so much that I have it in red too! I like the empire line as it makes it a really easy to wear every day dress and I love the bright floral pattern. Nobody does floral patterns quite as well as Joules. And just in case the dress wasn't bright enough, I've put it with bright magenta pink tights. My teenagers hate me wearing coloured tights but hey, what do they know? Ha! 

So that was me, what are you wearing this week? Are you happy to embrace autumn like me?

 
Let's be friends! Find me here:

  4. Those tights! LOVE. I had some in a similar hue last year that I eventually threw out because I never felt bold enough to wear them. Sarah makes it look easy.

    Melaina - my condolences on the passing of your grandfather.

  11. Mostly Yummy is the reason why I am obsessed with Joules. Her post about the red Leila dress made me head over to the Joules site.
    Last week I bought this dress in the most recent fabric design. I don't look as good as Mostly Yummy in the dress buy still, it's a lovely, flattering design x
