Mia is a fashion blogger over at FashionbyMimi and has a lovely intake on the fashion life.

She has just completed an intern at Look magazine.

And I loved reading her posts.

Plus. She has HOT hair.

Today, Mia will be talking about... Turning your Summer loves into Autumn treasures:

Okay so I admit it, you can hardly call the blistering winds and rainy days summer, but, I’m sure many of you still braved the cold in your new summers buys just like I did! However, I think as August draws to  a close, it may just be time to say bye bye to those short shorts and figure out ways that you can still wear your summer style this Autumn. I’ve picked 3 Summer styles that can be easily adapted to your AW11 wardrobe, starting with the playsuit!

Playsuit, Cardigan, Brogues: All topshop.

Now normally, in the heat of Summer, this playsuit would look adorable teamed with some quirky espadrilles and a gorgeous hip back pack. Perfect for evenings at the beach.

Autumn: The beautiful tans, oranges and pinks in the playsuit make it an autumn beauty. Team it with some classic brogues, some thick black tights and a warm cardi and voila!

The Shorts:

Shorts; Topshop. Jumper: River Island. Boots: Asos

These delightful polka dots shorts are right on trend for AW11 and so are perfect for your wardrobe! In the summer, these shorts would have looked sooo perdy with a little vest top and some cute sandals but rewind a few months and you get...

Autumn: Wear these beauties with the classic black tights, some ankle boots and that woollen wonder and there you have it!

The dress!

Dress River island. Jacket: Topshop. Shoes: Topshop

The hardest one of all because Summer dresses are totally different to our AW ones. In the summer, we wear floral and floaty, but when it comes to the winter, we want to cover up every little last bit of skin!

I am in love with this beautiful summer maxi dress. Not only does the colour scream sun, sand and ice cream, but the total shape of it reminds me of black and white Hollywood classics. In the warm months of June, I would have worn this with some pumps and a massive sun hat.

Autumn: Okay, I admit it, this dress it pretty easy to wear in the autumn as it is long enough to keep your legs warm however, the lengths also proves a problem as it raises the question every girl hates; What shoes?! 

Autumn: As a sucker for the 70s trend. I would totally team this with some tassled heels! Don’t be scared of the colours, brighten up your autumn day! Faux fur is so hot for AW 2011 so turn on the glamour and get yourself a gorgeous oversized jacket to keep those winter chills away!

Thanks to Miss Mia!

I hope you enjoyed this new post!

Check back tomorrow, to see another bloggers intake on life...

P.s - I'm having a lazy week.

No need to see me in pictures of my one piece AGAIN!
