I’m very conscious of the fact that I’ve started to veer towards darker colours in lieu of Autumn arriving on my doorstep. I’m trying to add pops of colour but when its cold in the morning sometimes you just really don’t want to! However, I am going to make a conscious effort to try and add in as much colour as possible and that colour will come in the form of my new stash of coloured tights I mentioned in a post a while ago.
I’ve just recently bought these plum coloured tights – I’m not a fan of purple or fuchsia so thought a deep plum would go down a treat – what do you think? The skirt is a new vintage one I got just the other day and its now one of my favourites!! You can’t see it here, but it’s a black skirt with red plaid lines going through it and a sweet bow tie at the side.
This weekend is going to be spent sewing, going to movies at the film festival, getting through posts on my reader and tonight I get to sneak into a fashion show that has been sold out for a while now. I can’t dress how I would like to though because I’m being snuck in by the people doing the sound for the show (yay, love them!!) so I’m an honorary sound person, I do know how to set up a basic PA and I know what fold back speakers are but that is about the extent of my knowledge. Hopefully I won’t have to look too much like I know what I’m doing!!
Have a lovely weekend,
XX

I love your skirt. Great find! I've been craving a skirt with a built in bow lately.
Plum is one of my favorite colors, pasrticularly for tights. Sounds like a wonderful weekend. Have fun at the fashion show!
The colored tights are a smashing success! It's quite amazing how you found the skirt and shoes to match. I never have that kind of lovely color luck. :)
The skirt is terrific. Love the big bow. It's a twirler if I ever saw one. :)
Please, please tell us about the fashion show when you return. I've never been to one and I'd love to hear about it. It's so funny that your going in a disguise! I bet your uniform is black shirt and pants - right?
I love the idea of consciously adding pops of colour in the gloomy cold days! That's something I hope to do too.
Your plum tights are brilliant, and it matches your skirt nicely :)
i know i completely agree with what you said about hermione. esp her 'transformation' at the yule ball if u know what i'm talking about.
neways, luv the tights and thrifted skirt... question, how do u sneak into a fashion show? I would love to also sneak into one haha
What a lovely outfit, I love the tights.
Where did you get them?
As a sound person, just remember to say "one, two ... one, two .. testing, testing" and everyone will believe you know what you're doing.
Hi there-a perfect autumn outfit, I really love the skirt, a fab buy!
Those tights are fantastic! And I know what you mean about cold weather and dark clothes. Sometimes it's really comforting. And other times it's too funereal.
I love the color of those tights! Its funny b/c I can't wait to stop wearing tights as soon as the warm weather rolls around, but your outfit gives me end of winter inspiration!
u are soo cute..
I think that color of tights is lovely - and it goes well with the rest of your outfit too. Have fun at the fashion show!
I love seeing the opposite season going on in your blog, it's such a fun refresher because I was just there and can so relate! The dark plums and browns are lovely, I almost look forward to next fall... but not quite.
I love the plum colour and the skirt!
charming!!! i love your color combinations!
Oh I love the plum tights and what a gorgeous skirt dear.
You look really well.
xoxo
Oh that is a great skirt! And certainly in the photo the plum tights looks really good with it. I'm a little scared of coloured tights but I just bought purple ones - am a big purple fan. What a sweet hookup for the fashion show, have fun!!!!!
You look so elegant today!
Oh! Really cute outfit. I love it all, the colors, the bow on the skirt. Just fantastic!
ooh! i love the plum + red + navy color combination. i think it's alright to take on a more subdued color palette for fall .. just dont let it bring down your mood!
The plum colored tights are the perfect color for Autumn. Autumn is my favorite season for clothes, but I agree that sometimes it is absolutely necessary to keep Spring & Summer alive in one's wardrobe with dashes of bright color here and there :)
Sneaking into a fashion show?! Fun! :)
Im with you on the "it's getting cold" post. these red stokings are a perfect colour!
I'm a big fan of coloured tights and those are perfection.
such a rich and wonderful color. I love your blog, you have a fabulous sense of style and I would love to read more. Would you like to trade links?
The plum tights are gorgeous and so perfect with that adorable skirt!
so cute!
Lovely outfit. It's wild how it's getting colder there and warmer here...
So cute your outfit!!
