Give these items away or sell them if you have time. They no longer serve a purpose to you and are now officially ‘clutter’!
Spend some time with the following:

Some trends & colours to keep in mind for autumn/winter 2016
Updating your accessories will always be one of the quickest and easiest ways to update your look! Why not try a new watch with on-trend cut-outs? Tie-up shoes will be very popular this season. This pair by Wittner are in cherry suede. A new pair of sunnies and a couple of new scarves will instantly freshen your appearance. Everyone should have a denim skirt or denim jeans as part of their wardrobe essentials – now is the time to bring them out!
Update classic shapes like a pair of black pants, a 3/4 sleeve tee and ballet flats with a long 70’s inspired fringed cardigan or cape. A statement bag will complete the look.
