Hello,
When it comes to collating Autumn styles, so much inspires me: art, nature, literature, old movies.
Fall, Leaves, Fall by Emily Brontë
Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;
Lengthen night and shorten day;
Every leaf speaks bliss to me
Fluttering from the autumn tree.
I shall smile when wreaths of snow
Blossom where the rose should grow;
I shall sing when night’s decay
Ushers in a drearier day.
One of my few mammoth posts for the year, this delicious collection of rich, warm colours and layers, florals and the occasional frill will transform your Autumn work style into a heady-scented, stylish season.
