Autumn Style

Autumn is my absolute favourite season. On a cold and rainy Sunday, I love to stay at home listening to Radio 6 Music while I sip red wine and potter about. Crisp Saturday mornings are often spent on walks with my children amongst the trees, with the buzz of the London skyline on the periphery. Indeed there is a chill in the air, but the sun is high in the sky and wonderfully warming on my face. Later, the evenings are spent cosied up in blankets watching movies; in fact do I ever want to go out these days? Actually no, I just want to sit at home in tights and big jumpers looking at pictures of Jane and Serge because this season, I am in love with the style of the 1970s.

The Jennr Autumn Style Edit

A sort of Patti Boyd and Keith Richards mash up of clashing prints and textures. A silk scarf and vintage wool hat accessorise this wearable curation and a glittery purple eyeshadow finishes the look. This is Autumn style inspired by the 1970s!

The brands featured in this edit are doing their bit to be more ethical and sustainable. In addition, are vintage finds and high quality staples designed to belong in a wardrobe forever, not thrown away after only a couple of wears.

The Beautifully embellished jacket is by Maudde and the Patti Boyd style floppy hat is by M&S. Both are vintage finds.

The Faux leather trousers are by Stella McCartney via online shopping portal, MyTheresa. They sit high on the waist for 70s style with an edge.

The embroidered blouse is by SEA, a brand with a gorgeous aesthetic. They make unique and wearable pieces that will become wardrobe staples.

Sparkly purple eyeshadow by my favourite cruelty-free make up brand, Ilamasqua punctuates this look.

A Keith Richards inspired ensemble needs a skinny scarf or two. Layer them up and add jewellery. This 100% organic peace silk scarf is by Jennr.

A 1970s inspired outfit wouldn’t be complete without a brilliant pair of boots. Shown here are vegan boots by Beyond Skin ‘A ladies designer footwear label with a sustainable DNA’

My Autumn Play list:

Introducing uniquely designed and ethically made silk scarves by Jennr.

Jennr scarves are made ethically from 100% Organic Peace Silk, manufactured in India. Peace silk is a type of silk produced from silk threads that have been extracted only once the silk worm has emerged from its cocoon as a fully formed moth. This is a much kinder method of silk production, because it allows the silk worm to complete its full life cycle. After the moth emerges from the cocoon, the silk threads are then collected by hand and woven into silk threads. This method of harvesting the silk is much more time consuming. However the silks produced are just as beautiful, if not more so, because they have been produced without causing harm to the silk worm. You can read more about how Peace Silk is manufactured here: https://lovejennr.com/peace-silk/

Transparency

Jennr supports the view that greater transparency is needed in the fashion industry. Customers should know where their product comes from and how it has been produced, for instance. Not only does our silk manufacturer produce non-violent silk, they also provide ethical working conditions and support four NGO’s working for wild life conservation, disabled care and girl child education. You can read more about the company that provided the silk for our current collection here: https://www.aaeco.net/aboutus.htm

Design Inspiration

Our current collection is inspired by Ancient Japanese Prints and features original illustrations in gloriously pretty hues. To compliment our unique designs we selected a light-weight, satiny silk that is wonderfully soft, with a fantastic drape.

Presentation and Packaging

Each scarf is beautifully finished with machine rolled hems and hand sewn corners. Your scarf will be neatly presented in a box made from recycled card, the lid of the box is embossed with the Jennr logo.
