I think we can officially say autumn is here & whilst we might be mourning the warmer temperatures & the feel of the sun on our skin I have to admit to also loving this new season. Granted autumn can be just beautiful when we have blue skies with the leaves changing into all their autumnal splendour but even if the weather's not playing ball I love the cosy dark nights & chillaxing in front of an open fire that we tend to have that little bit more time for in the autumn months. For me there's nothing nicer than relaxing in front on the fire with a glass of something chilled & it absolutely tipping it down outside. Not to mention bonfire night & writing our names in the air with our sparklers, our wedding anniversary, my birthday & Christmas....I really do love all these events so much....totally not grown up I know but hey it's what makes me ME!
The other thing I love about this time of year is that it's officially jacket & scarf wearing weather woo hoo, two of my favourite items of clothing :-) So I was beyond giddy when Joules very kindly sent me this gorgeous Wensley Caramel Floral Scarf.
One of the main things you can guarantee with any item of clothing from Joules is both the quality & design & this scarf is no exception. Lovingly finished in the the most gorgeous shade of winter yellow with the floral design containing most colours meaning that I think you'd struggle to find something this scarf didn't go with. Plus it's just that perfect weight & length, which means that you won't suddenly find yourself stepping on said scarf & nearly strangling yourself nor going a delicate shade of red from overheating.
I totally love all the colours in the design & the pop of mustard yellow is turning out to be one of the colours I've already brought a few new autumn pieces in so it's perfect for wearing with my new additions. Naturally as any self deserving shopaholic will tell you, I lost a good hour 'playing' with my new scarf & thinking of all the different outfits I could wear it with.
One of my favourite colours to wear this autumnal shade of yellow is navy so in my first outfit I've teamed it with my bargain Mango jacket, which is still available online & currently 60% off!
Style One
Scarf - Joules
Military Style Jacket - Mango
Denim Shirt - Zara
Boyfriend Jeans - Zara
Boots - Next
For style two I've teamed the scarf with grey & my new biker jeans from H&M. I think it looks really stunning with the contrasting colour & with such a simple outfit the scarf really can take the limelight.
Style Two
Scarf - Joules
Jumper - Primark (this season)
Biker Jeans - H&M
Boots - Oasis
Bracelet - Banana Republic
I simply couldn't not try the scarf with my new jumper from H&M which is the exact same shade as the scarf & looks fab teamed with my denim shirt & boyfriend jeans.
Style Three
Scarf - Joules
Denim Shirt - Zara
Jumper - H&M
Bracelet - Banana Republic
Boyfriend Jeans - Zara
Court Shoes - Zara
I've then simply smartened style three up by throwing on my tuxedo jacket which really ties in the dressy side of the court shoes without feeling too smart or work like due to the loose fitting boyfriends.
Style Four
Scarf - Joules
Jumper - H&M
Denim Shirt - Zara
Tuxedo Blazer - Zara
Bracelet - Banana Republic
Boyfriend Jeans - Zara
Court Shoes - Zara
For style five I've decided to put another pattern with the scarf & have styled it with a simple long sleeved navy & white Breton top. I really like the different patterns together & by keeping the rest of the outfit in varying shades of blue it doesn't feel too loud or clashing.
Style Five
Scarf - Joules
Military Jacket - Mango
Striped Top - Zara
Bracelet - Banana Republic
Skinny Jeans - Zara
Court Shoes - Next
Finishing with style six where I've dressed the scarf down with some loose fitting cargo pants, a denim jacket finishing with my silver Boden pumps. I really love the dressed down edge that outfit has, & it will be perfect for running errands of a weekend.
Style Six
Scarf - Joules
Denim Jacket - Zara
Jumper - Primark (this season)
Bracelet - Banana Republic
Combats - Zara
Silver Pumps - Boden
Of course Joules also do some other great designs & if you're on the hunt for a new scarf for your wardrobe have a peak at their other designs (click here) after all a new scarf is a great & cheap way for bringing some new love to clothing already in your wardrobe & there's no easier way for adding a pop of colour.

I'd love to hear if you've got a favourite way of wearing & tying your scarves. Perhaps there's a stunning scarf you've seen on your shopping travels that you want to share.
As always I love reading your thoughts & hearing which style you like the most plus if you do know of a scarf that my wardrobe is crying to welcome into it's fold please share ;-)
Gorgeous scarf, Jane. I love outfits 2,5 & 6 in particular. Love the mustard in it as it's one of my favourite colours. Gorgeous x
ReplyDeleteThanks Lynne, I have to admit up to this year I didn't have much yellow or mustard in my wardrobe but totally in love with it at the moment & it's the perfect autumn colour too! x
DeleteLove the scarf with the yellow h&m jumper looks fantastic
ReplyDeleteThanks Kerry, I couldn't believe my luck when the jumper was the same colour....obviously meant to be ;-) x
DeleteOh my - what a fab scarf! Love it with the stripes - great pattern mix. I'm trying to resist - it's not like I don't already have a MILLION scarves but just a little peep won't hurt?? Ax
ReplyDeleteThe scarf is gorgeous isn't Avril, although you must be seriously spoilt for choice with all the gorgeous scarves in your shop x
DeleteWell...I am...but I find myself so tempted to buy elsewhere - just to have something a bit different! X
DeleteThe trouble is scarves are just so useful & easily update an outfit that they're so hard to resist! :-) x
DeleteSuch a beautiful scarf! It will go with so much too! Love all the ways you've styled it but pic no. 5 is my absolute favourite......can't beat a blazer and Breton combo! x
ReplyDeleteThanks Michelle, it's going to be one of those perfect scarves that go with everything & this slightly cooler weather is just perfect for wearing it too ;-) x
DeleteNothing like summer floral accents to ease us into fall! Loving all these looks!
