Some Inspiration For You All.
As the fashion month madness becomes a near-distant memory (for now at least) and we have a moment to think about our own wardrobes for a second, we thought we’d bring you our wishlist toppers for the month of October. From timeless bags to seasonal staples, check out how the PAUSE team are choosing to transition their style into the colder months below:

The key to a good bag? Adaptability. Maison Margiela’s latest bag can be grasped in any which way you can think of, providing a convenient foundational piece for you to base your outfits around. A rich black pebbled leather and heritage Maison Margiela branding puts forward those extra essential touches.
Getting into that time of the year, all you want is a reliable puffer to get you through 99% of the days. Taking a luxe approach to that ever-present issue are Moncler and adidas Originals, thoughtfully providing an action-ready piece that bridges the gap between luxury and tactical wear, all the while inserting some intricate co-branded accents as well.

I don’t know how I have gone some 26 years of living on this spherical planet (sorry flat earthers) we like to call home without knowing about Bella Freud and her timeless designs but I now realise that I’ve been missing out. After binging a fair few of Vogue’s almost-invasive ‘Inside the home of’ series I came across the cult designer, LOVED everything about her and immediately checked out her work. There’s not much more to say about this coat than it is EVERYTHING and more. I better get saving…
I know you can buy a black hoodie from basically anywhere that sells clothing but the STRUGGLE to find one which actually fits as you want has been a near-impossible mission. Arise Seventh Store.

I can’t get over how cute these lil’ jelly totes are by Melissa x Telfar. reminiscent of those cute princess jelly shoes and bags we had growing up in the noughties, this bag is an ideal addition to a 90s/00s centric wardrobe.
With a classic such as the Air Max Plus, it can only be elevated to heights by the art of reimagination. Minimalism and smoothness are the hallmarks of this collaboration. I’m really in love with this elevated staple.
As an avid Bieber fan – it’s only right I wear Drew House to chill out as we enter the colder months. Black, 100% cotton and perfectly oversized, it’s the perfect everyday hoodie.

The Diesel 1DR-M shoulder bag has been my MVP throughout September. It had room for all my London Fashion Week essentials and complemented practically every outfit. This sleek accessory has earned its rightful place at the top of my picks thanks to its curved silhouette, all-black design, and oversized logo plaque.
The Puma x Fenty Avanti C proves that Rihanna really can do it all. The multi-talented powerhouse’s latest collaboration with Puma brings back an archival design rendered in a modern chrome finish. Since the return of the Premier League, I’ve been lusting after football boot-inspired silhouettes, and this eye-catching metallic silver sneaker is no exception.
As the days get shorter, I plan on embracing dopamine dressing whenever possible. Without a doubt, this Hatton Labs silver cubic zirconia eternity ring is the easiest way to inject joy into a look, set with vibrant rainbow-hued crystals. It’s the ultimate form of colour therapy.
