Cozy Autumn Outfit

Cardigan: Weekday

T-Shirt: H&M

Jeans: River Island

Scarf: Primark

Boots: Dr Martens

Necklace: Shop Dixi

This is my first ever, proper outfit post and man was it hard to do on my own. Turns out, those little Canon camera remotes only work at a certain distance which isn't ideal. However, I finally managed to get a few good shots of my go to autumn outfit (despite being the least photogenic person in existence, I have discovered).

This outfit is the one I reach for when I want to be comfy and warm. I'm not so much about trends and more about comfort, so I love a good jeans and tee combo. I am completely in love with Scandinavian street style however and I'm making it my mission to get as many stylish, yet basic pieces in my autumn wardrobe (hence the Weekday cardigan). 

Please give me some honest feedback on my first proper outfit post, I'd love to do more but there's always room for improvement. Also, let me know what your favourite, cozy A/W items are in the comments below. 

Dr Martens

It wasn't until a friend of mine expressed her love for Dr Martens that these classics even entered my radar. Since then I've bought my very first pair of Docs and I have nothing but love for them. My only problem is that it is a one man battle to try and break these bad boys in. The first time my mum saw them, she said "Oh, they're nice! They'll be broken in by the time you're 40" she may very well be right.

At this very moment they sit on my bedroom floor covered in leather softner and stuffed with rolled up socks. My main problems are the instep cutting into me and a fair few heel blisters. Despite all the problems and hassle with breaking them in, I actually don't mind the effort. Dr Martens have been a classic for many, many years and even though I'm not one for spending a huge amount on shoes, I definitely see these as an investment. 

With the winter fast approaching and the rain making its way over most of the UK, it is nearly time for these guys to really shine. I'll soon be doing my main Autumn/Winter clothing shop and good waterproof shoes are something I greatly lack in. That means that I'm relying heavily on my Docs to keep my feet toasty warm and dry. 

As much as I love my current pair of brand spanking, shiny new Docs, I think in the future, I may look at getting my Dr Martens off of Ebay or other second hand marketplaces. The good thing about getting them slightly used is that someone has already done all the work of breaking them in! 

What do you think of Dr Martens? Absolutely love, or not really your style?
