Photoshoot: Lost In London with Luna
The older I've got, the more I've come to embrace oversized and comfy clothing. There was a time in my life where I would only wear shapes which enabled the "good fatty" silhouette - items which pulled in at the waist, skimmed the hips and played into the narrative of being ultra feminine at all times.
It can be spooky season all year round if you believe hard enough, and I knew when I saw this dress on the ASOS website, it'd be one of those "everyday but make it witchy" dreams that I'd be able to live in whatever the time of year. Black, soft, drapey and linen were all words I was happy to see, and after retrying three times to get the size correct on my bust (go up by two if you're large busted), I finally had what might be my favourite LBD of all time.
I don't need an excuse to dress up like it's Halloween every day of the year, and if you follow me on Instagram, you'll know that I've fallen totally in love with this Ashbury's Angel Velvet Dress from Killstar. Originally purchased to get me through the relentless summer heat, it's not been packed away for winter just yet as I'm still hoping to be able to get some mileage out of it, possibly over a turtleneck.

For me, autumn is the most magical time of the year. The leaves turn red, warm apple and cinnamon flavours are on every menu, we get the best sunsets and it's the absolute BEST time of year for fashion. Ankle boots, midi dresses, chunky knits and coats - oh how I've missed my coats and jackets! And the colours too - the reds, the burnt oranges, the mustard yellows. Whether it's in my make-up palette or my wardrobe, an autumn colour story is my seasonal BFF.
