Wearing: Raccoon jumper from H&M (kids dept), skinny black trousers and sequin slippers from ASOS, white shirt from awear.com, red Cambridge Satchel Co satchel via Urban Outfitters, red Timex from Harvey Nichols, 17 Lasting Finish lipstick in Mulled Wine

Whilst at university I regularly shopped in H&M’s kids department for t-shirts and jumpers and it’s something I’m getting back into. Not only is the selection more fun but you don’t see every other person wearing the same thing as you! A couple of weeks ago I spied this cute raccoon jumper and I had to have it. They also do horse-print and kitten-print versions, I may get all three… Power jumpers are definitely going to rank highly in my autumn wardrobe this year.

I wore this outfit for a lazy Sunday shopping session, which actually wasn’t very successful. After cooing over some dachshund puppies for sale in Harrods - £1,700 each!! – I quickly lost patience with the chaotic, overcrowded store so we strolled to Hyde Park then Grosvenor Square for a bit of peace and quiet.

It actually worked out well, it was gloriously sunny which was especially nice as we’re now experiencing the vile weather you’d expect for this time of year. If you were hit with the torrential rain and/or flooding last night my thoughts are with you, stay safe!

Eeeee I love your jumper. Gosh, dachshund puppies for £1,700?1? When did Harrods become a pet store and were they made of gold? haha xx

I love that jumper it’s so cute! It’s been a while since I visited H&M kids but I must go take a look, I have a similar jumper in the same blue shade but featuring a panda pirate. Your satchel is great too.
Also that price for the puppies is crazy!

You could turn that jumper into a Halloween costume, probably! Sexy raccoon?

Love the jumper! So simple and cute. Definitely a fall outfit inspiration. If only I can find a jumper with an interesting print.
