I am not a pink person. In fact, I’m not really a colour person. I always end up in blacks, whites and – my favourite colour of them all – grey. I’ve had to ban myself from buying grey jumpers, it has got that out of control. But autumn is just such a colourful time. The leaves are putting on a firework display of reds, oranges and yellows and we haven’t even set off the real sparklers for the 5th November yet. So this is my attempt to put a bit of colour into my monochrome wardrobe.
Not only am I absolutely not a pink person, but it isn’t a very autumnal colour either. Spring and summer yes but autumn? No. But this dusky rose Topshop jumper absolutely fits the bill. I love how the colour is slightly unexpected, but still fits in. And it’s a great option if, like me, yellow makes you look a bit sallow and red is just a bit too bold. Baby steps. This jumper has an amazing fit – comfy and relaxed but still slightly fitted, and it can look smart if you want it to. It’s also not too heavy, so ideal for these warmer autumnal days we are still enjoying.
I am also completely in love with this H&M scarf. It is so soft, so comfy to wear and so cheap! And it looks perfectly autumnal without being stereotypically so. The mustard yellow brings it straight into the season, along with the dusky rose pink I am loving so much. It’s also not too heavy so, again, perfect for these crisp autumn days.
So if you buy one thing this month, make it colourful. Or at least slightly so. We are going to have plenty of time for monochrome when winter rolls round.
I am just like you! Gravitate to white, black, gray, and cream! That scarf though is so cute- colorful yet still neutral!

I’m an #allblackeverything kind of girl too with the occasional white and GREY too…. I’ve been forcing myself to stay away from buying anything in those colors but everything just looks good in them! but thats such a good tone of pink you have on, its not too girly/barbie-ish its more mature and soft i love it on you.
xo, JJ

Thank you so much! I totally agree that this shade of pink isn’t too Barbie, feels a bit more grown up. And yes, everything does look so much better in monochrome!! Have to try and avoid it… Thanks so much for reading x
