Autmun/Winter Wardrobe Additions: Bershka

Now that the weather is decidedly chillier than it has been, it's about time I did some major Autumn/Winter shopping. Shopping for the colder months is most definitely my favourite kind of shopping. I love nothing more than layering up and breaking out the ankle boots and fluffy jumpers. 

Not only am I adding some much needed items to my Winter wardrobe, I'm also trying to give it a makeover. Over the last 3 years of Uni I've let my wardrobe go a bit down hill. Now that I'm back at work I want to get my minimalist wardrobe up to scratch. I love anything that is clean cut, plain and simple so Bershka was on the top of my list of stores to check out. 

Bershka is a reasonably priced store that offers some amazing basic pieces. I like to think of it as Zara's younger more urban sibling. I've always been one to browse and lust after things from Bershka, but these are the first things I've ever taken the plunge and bought from them.

I've been trying to find a pair of beige ankle boots for a while now and I couldn't find any that were under £100 or not sold out. Then I saw these BSK Zipper Detail Heeled Ankle Boots online and new they were exactly what I was looking for. One thing I really hate is when ankle boots have that slippy plastic sole (New Look boots tend to be the main culprits) so I was a little nervous about what these were going to be like. I'm happy to report that they have a sturdy rubber sole that isn't going to send me flying in the icy weather. 

The Flap Detail Suede Bag was more of an impulse buy. My beloved Nica Lucy bag is now falling to pieces and I wanted a new winter handbag. This was a lot smaller than I thought it was going to be but actually it's the perfect size to fit the essentials in and not weigh you down. It's real leather and feels like amazing quality, only time will tell if it can withstand the amount of wear I'll be getting out of it though. 

I'm definitely even more of a fan of Bershka now I have these lovely additions to my wardrobe. Hopefully once I've gotten my wardrobe to tip top condition I can do some outfit posts to really show these guys off. Keep your eyes peeled!
