V Neck Mens Cashmere Jumper: M&S
Suede Biker Jacket: Topshop
Floral Tent Dress: Zara
Studded Amy Boots: Topshop
As soon as the leaves begin to fall you can guarantee I'll be feeling the cooler temperatures or as we say in Sheffield I'm feeling nesh. Autumn may be the most Instagram worthy season but baking temperatures is not one of its renowned features. Step forward everyones wardrobe favourite, luxe knitwear and more specifically cashmere. Cashmere is the dogs bollocks of fabric and while the washing instructions can be a bitch the incredibly snuggly material makes up for this in leaps and bounds. Everyone knows layering is the key for the Autumn Winter season so instead of packing away this floral tent style dress (an item I picked up for Sadies christening pre baby weight loss journey) I've made it season appropriate with just a few simple styling tweaks. For me the new season is all about mixing textures so adding tough buckle boots, a super soft knit and a suede biker jacket means my once Summer only dress ready to fight another day.

If you're a regular around these parts you'll know I'm currently in the process of refreshing my knitwear so in times of trouble I turn to my husbands wardrobe for a cashmere pick me up. This v neck jumper has been a long standing fixture in Craigs wardrobe and as its a piece he no longer reaches for it only seems fair that I shake it out of retirement. I can picture this looking Scandi blogger cool worn with blue straight cut jeans and a mannish shoe but for a family walk I simply rolled up the hem, grabbed the baby and went. Sometimes it really is that straight forward in the Wild household. We took these photos last Sunday after a lazy morning at home (we all stayed in bed until 11.40am) followed by an afternoon road trip to Chatsworth farm shop - what that shop doesn't have in terms of food is not worth eating. 

This weekend I'm enjoying some much needed down time after spending two and a half days in Italy with work, it was so refreshing to do something where I'm not initially thought of as a mum although this made my reunion with Sadie even sweeter. Who said being a mum was straight forward?

What do you make of my outfit? Do you try to make different garms appropriate for the new season?
