This week is all about Lucy…Jane Wood. 

A long time friend of the brand, Lucy’s curated collection is everything you need to see you through Autumn. 

Because a pumpkin dungaree is a wardrobe ESSENTIAL. 

Bio

Hi! I'm Lucy Jane Wood. I'm a writer, reader and internet friend who you may have watched have various existential crisis over on YouTube, alongside my cat and Princess of Genovia, Flo. 


You’ll probably find me talking about books, styling cosy outfits, or attempting some very unwise DIY. I always try to provide a feeling of comforting nostalgia, along with some really bad impressions and a little sprinkle of magic wherever possible.


My style

I’m not sure when it happened, but at some point I stopped caring about anything trend-related and decided I mostly just wanted my wardrobe to be a mix of Miss Honey from Matilda and Chessy from The Parent Trap. Maybe some early 90’s Meg Ryan thrown in for good measure.


Any combo of cute dungarees, giant bows, easy t-shirts and slouchy jumpers is a winner in my book. I appreciate classic, good quality basics that look effortless and cosy. I always try to hunt down clothes that I know are good quality made to last, never going out of style (we never go out. of. style.) and that can be worn in a ton of different lazy-but-lovely ways.


Why I love autumn style

I was about to write that autumn is the very best season, but what I think I really mean is that the Pinterest/Instagram version of autumn in my head is the very best season. The reality is mostly just soggy and sweaty. I’m currently writing this overlooking an extremely grey but weirdly hot London, and it’s not giving me the yellow, orange and red Gilmore Girls life that I’m delusional enough to hope for. At least it’s a good excuse to stay inside with a book, a coffee and an episode of Buffy.


Autumn style is the ultimate, though. If I write the ‘c’ word one more time (cosy, duh) I’m going to seem unhinged but… COSY ALL THE WAY. Turtlenecks, jumpers, cardigans, checked shirts, plaid skirts… I love it so much that I’m rhyming. Doc Martens, high waisted trousers, warm tones on warm tones. You can’t tell me the vibes aren’t immaculate.


Why I styled the pieces this way

I’m not a complicated dresser so ‘styling’ always sounds much too accomplished for what I actually do, which is ‘get dressed’.


The embroidery on the dungarees is just the perfect detail for me, so keeping it simple with a black turtleneck for a bit of warmth and cosiness seemed the best bet. Let the pumpkins do the talking with these ones. I tied a brown checked shirt around my waist to look like I belonged on the Halloween special of my life.


I am absolutely obsessed with the maroon colour of the Ida blouse. Teamed with the big collar it gave me a bit of an 80’s, Saved By The Bell kinda feeling (all my fashion references are from TV I watched at my Nan’s after school), so I fully embraced the All-American vibe with high waisted straight blue jeans, a buckle belt and my trusty white Converse.


It was weirdly hot on the day that we shot these outfits - again, UK autumn lying to us. I wanted to team the Maggie jumpsuit (coming later this week!) with a striped turtleneck for the best 70’s high school combo, but I couldn’t face the sweat levels. I’ll definitely be doing that in the future, though. It’s the coolest combo with the mustard colour, jazzy pointed collar and flared legs.


Never has there been anything more adorable and girly than the floral Mini Pini. I will be adding a pink tshirt and a velvet hair bow on warmer days, but it had to be a cream roll-neck jumper this time. Add in some sheer tights (a cool Gen Z friend told me that anything over 20 denier is ‘giving Year 7’ and now I’m paranoid), chunky Doc Martens and a Pumpkin Spice Latte to be autumn personified.


How I’ll use them over the upcoming season

These four pieces have already become some of my most reached for wardrobe items because they are just perfectly me. Pumpkin dungarees, are you kidding me? My little autumn heart is crying bright orange, chai-spiced tears of joy just thinking about them.


I am particularly excited to whack them all in my suitcase and take them on an upcoming trip to Boston and New England at the end of October. They’re going to be the perfect colour palette to match the changing leaves and to eat ten thousand apple cider donuts at the same time.


What speaks to me about L&Y

I reach for my Lucy & Yak’s whenever I want to feel like the main character, ideally in a 90’s autumn New York romcom about a girl who likes coffee and books too much (that’s every day). They’re such a comfort outfit - not only because they’re literally the comfiest things in my wardrobe, but because they feel like they were made for me. The oversized fits and endless outfit possibilities means I reach for them all over and over.


Of course, I really love that @lucyandyak clothing is sustainable, made from organic, recycled or deadstock fabrics, and I just really appreciate the emphasis on quality because it means the clothes last a really long time.


Plus, the fact that all the labels have my name on… A great bonus for Lucys everywhere.
