Temperley Somerset

I was really excited to learn when it was announced over the summer that one of my favourite designers, Alice Temperley was set to launch a collaboration for the high street with John Lewis. Designer style at high street prices.. win win you might say! 

The collection, launched yesterday, is named after Alice's home county and celebrates ten years of the renowned brand. Her signature boho style is reflected throughout with soft feminine tailoring, lace embellishments and ruffles. 

The collection has a military vibe, a popular trend as seen on the A/W catwalk at London Fashion Week earlier this year, with gold button detailing and buckled boots. There's also a range of accessories including handbags, purses, belts and scarves.

It's easy to see why the ever stylish Kate Middleton and Florence Welch are loyal fans of her work!

The 60 piece capsule collection is available now at selected John Lewis stores and online with prices starting at £29.00 for a Cornish striped scarf and £99.00 for a jersey dress. 

These are a few of my favourite pieces from the collection

1. Spot Mesh Shift Dress - £160.00

2. Montacute Leather Tote Handbag - £195.00

3. Sequin Jumper - £69.00

4. Animal Print Scarf - £49.00

5. Military Detail Tailored Skirt - £99.00

6. Double Buckle Ankle Boots - £180.00

I adore the ruffled lantern style sleeves on the spot dress, it'd make the perfect LBD! The sequin jumper is available in silver, gold and black. Its longline shape makes it ideal for layering this season. The rich colours in the animal print scarf are great for adding a splash of colour to your winter wardrobe and at just £49.00 I can sense it making an appearance in mine soon! 

A second phase focusing on partywear is set for release in October, it's sure to be perfect for Christmas parties!
