If you have been reading the blog for a while now you will know that I much prefer men's clothing over women's, it just feels more comfortable for me and seems to fit me a lot better than women's cuts. Now that the weather is changing I am starting to think about the changes I want to make to my wardrobe to make it fit the seasons better. That is why I am going to be doing a little series on this blog with items I am hoping to pick up or would like to incorporate into my wardrobe for the colder months. The series will feature some of my favourite places to shop (yes I am looking at you Primark) but also some shops I always forget to check in like River Island and Matalan etc... Today though we are kicking things off with Burton, a shop I have definitely forgot about over the years, I used to shop in Burton especially picking up their multibuy t-shirt deals. But after a quick browse online I have found they are having a little Autumn event where some essentials are now marked down to some great prices. Here is what I have found and what I am hoping to pick up...

Black jersey bomber on offer at £15.40 usually £22.00
I absolutely love bomber jackets for when the weather is nice and mild. They are perfect for just throwing on with any t-shirt underneath. I love this one though as it is nice and plain but also a jersey material so isn't too big and bulky like some bombers I have owned in the past.

Navy check tartan shirt £25.00
For me autumn and winter is all about the checked shirts it doesn't matter if they are a flannel material or a thinner material they need adding to my wardrobe. I picked up a couple from Primark the other day but I am also loving the ones Burton are doing, in particular this navy tartan one. I usually wouldn't opt for a darker coloured one but for some reason I am very tempted with this. It is a bit more expensive than the Primark ones I am used to but it looks really nice.

Grey check print overhead hoodie on offer at £21.00 usually £30.00
I am really into the check trend at the moment and currently have 2 pairs of check pants but honestly I want more. But why not carry on the check to the top half? I absolutely love this check hoodie and if teamed up with my black jeans and white trainers I think this could work really well. It could even look quite good layered.

Caramel brown overhead hoodie on offer at £16.00 usually £20.00
Finally we have another hoodie but honestly this is something totally different, I usually wouldn't opt for this colour at all but for some reason it is standing out to me. I really want to try adding more colour into my wardrobe so this could easily be a great addition.
So there you have it I think I need a trip to Burton very soon to see which of these items I can pick up. What do you think to Burton's autumn collection?
See you soon
Lucy
