#WantItWednesday (27/08/14)

 I am in an awful mood. Summer is truly over, a fact I cannot and will not accept and the wind is starting to creep in along with the spiders (another reason to be put in a foul mood). 

I have started to re-evaluate my wardrobe, haul the winter coats out and invest in more high denier tights, the one small consolation for the cold.

This Tartan Tunic from New Look is the answer to all of my Winter prayers.

I am and will always be a fan of tartan and I am in love with the cut of this tunic. It can be dressed up or down and will look excellent with a pair of super thick tights.

How can you not want this?! 

This looks amazing with my favourite shape of coat, cocoon and looks just as amazing with a pair of heels as it does with a pair of converse and that's no mean feat, especially with my winter essential; 150 denier tights in the blackest shade of morose black. 

So I guess this has cheered me up a little, but not as much as the second coming of Summer would.

Liberty of London Pochette

There are few things more versatile than a pochette. An essential piece of kit seen everywhere during for the fashion season from the super busy buyers to fashion bloggers. This versatile, and useful little pocket of fun can hold your phone, make-up and your ever important notebook and pen, while looking effortlessly chic and ready to note down those important trends for the seasons ahead.

These little pouches of useful goodness also lend themselves quite well to the 'new' way to hold onto your possessions; clutching on to them for dear life.  Some are also gifted with an ever handy (see what I did there) wrist strap across the front to help you carry this with style.

My personal favourite is the fun, bright and completely beautiful Liberty of London version. Best paired with a neutral palette (all black with a 'pop' of colour) this is an accessory that defines 'day to night' without even breaking a sweat.

We should all be advocates of the 'pochette' it is here to stay!

Here are the best of the rest:
