Heidi Hi Boomerbabes!<\/p>\n

Did you manage to get your Fall wardrobes sorted out yet? Difficult, especially when the weather outside is still in summer mode. TBH I’m getting a little bored with all the hot pinks, turquoise, brilliant whites and sunshine yellows of summer. Halloween in the shops has put paid on summer for me!! I have my Halloween costume already chosen, so I guess it’s goodbye Summer, hello Fall!<\/p>\n

Last weekend, I ceremoniously put away all my turquoise and summer bling and replaced it with all my lovely rich amber jewellery. I bring it out for Fall. Yes, even jewellery goes through the seasonal changes this end of the pond!<\/p>\n

You really don’t need to buy a lot of new things. My rule is as long as you have the Fall colours, \u00a0and play with them as I have done in the outfits below, then you’ll have lots of FALL FASHION FUN!! After all, fashion is another way of expressing yourself. Be YOU!!<\/p>\n

Outfit 1:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"56693B03-A30A-45AD-8FF6-4E4239E0EFF3\"<\/a>\"5F5656CA-B51D-48FB-BBB7-15CDAC761992\"<\/a>My vintage LV bag looks great with all my Fall colours. Here I have teamed it up with a fur collared shawl I bought a few years ago in Bennetton, Dublin. The yellow beret is vintage \u2014 like me lol! The only newbies are the skirt, which is a knock off Anthropologie don’t you think? I saw a similar one in H & M which was twice the price. The newbies were a bargain at my favourite store, Winners! (TK Maxx in Europe). The blouse on clearance for a mere $20! and the skirt a bargain if ever for $24.99! So that outfit to put together only cost me $44.99. Not bad! Even if I say so myself!!<\/p>\n

Outfit 2:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"3ACB5895-C74F-4306-8745-5B10EED412AF\"<\/a>\"A47DB728-4FE1-465E-A5C5-887FF9AF8311\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Nothing new needed for outfit two! Hey, that rhymes!! The pants were purchased two years ago at Zara, Dublin. They fit me better now which is a good thing! I teamed it up with a very sassy long sheer burgundy top, also Zara 2 years ago. Long burgundy scarf a great buy from the Bay several years ago. I overdosed it with my amber, which I purchased at various flea markets. No bites from the fleas yet thank goodness!! Total cost of outfit this year \u2014 None!<\/p>\n

Outfit 3:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"33606937-903A-4F03-96D0-94E29FA16467\"<\/a>Same long burgundy scarf from previous outfit. Only addition here is a fabulous orange velvet designer dress with the label Uterque \u2014 a new one to me! I purchased it last year at a wonderful consignment shop in Dublin. It is called Siopa\u00a0Ella on Wicklow Street. Got lovely stuff there! Great value too! Total cost of outfit this year \u2014 None! I shopped in my own wardrobe, which is always a good idea! Shop local first!!<\/p>\n

Outfit 4:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"8AA28910-8FD2-4D33-B15F-95E295440AAF\"<\/a>\"931C4768-AB08-4890-987E-234DAE919AEB\"<\/a>This ensemble is so easy to wear and shows off my favourite burgundy velvet DKNY boots which I bought at the end of Summer Sales at the Bay for 75% off two years ago \u2014 don’t you love those killer deals!! I teamed it up with a sweet tweed skirt I bought a few years ago at Talbot’s store. I liked it for my Fall wardrobe because of the colours and potential cost per wear!! Only addition here is the wine coloured throw which is as light as a feather and can fold in my handbag! It caught my eye going over on the ferry to Vancouver last weekend. At $50, I felt it was worth the investment. I’ve already worn it a lot!! Cost of putting this outfit together this year was only $50!<\/p>\n

Outfit 5:<\/strong>\"38288DD7-2C2C-4BB0-AA5A-323B8F9D1F56\"<\/a>\"361E08B5-F574-4F5C-9C06-CA83943B5AA3\"<\/a>I\u00a0had to have a khaki green teamed up with warm mustard to give an outfit the real Autumnal feel, besides I like those warm colours against my skin tone and hair colour. The mustard blouse I got a few years ago. It’s a Ralph Lauren, my leave-me-never kind of guy! The khaki leggings from God knows where a few years ago. Think maybe Dynamite. The long Khaki dress was from Forever 21 3 years ago. Sadly, I heard recently that F21 are closing down soon. Another one being gobbled up by Amazon! I miss having shops! I better get shopping quickly while there are still some shops in the Malls!! Any excuse to shop lol!!<\/p>\n

Hope this inspires you to have fun putting your own Fall Fashion together. Be sure to show me on FB or Insta!!<\/p>\n

Love you lots,<\/p>\n
