As the seasons change so to do the trends. But if you’re not quite ready to ditch the summer wardrobe in favour of winter cover-ups, here’s our guide to those sartorial saviours that will take you from one season to the next with ease.
DON THOSE DUNGAREES
Perfect for warmer autumn days or when there’s a chill in the air, dungarees and boiler suits should be your absolute wardrobe staple. Dress up with chunky jewellery or pair with white trainers and this will be the hardest-working piece in your wardrobe.

DITCH THE SANDALS
Back away from the Birkenstocks and step out in style with new season lace-ups. These smart and classy shoes work with everything – from tailored trousers for the office to floaty floral dresses for a more relaxed look – and opt for an on-trend chunky heel and patent leather finish.

THE STAPLE CARDIGAN
Comfy, cosy and versatile, the humble cardigan is perfect for those in-between seasons whether you go for a waterfall, button-up, shawl collar or chunky knit. This timeless layer is your fashion friend when the temperatures start to fall.

THE “SHACKET”
Is it a shirt? Is it a jacket? Well, it’s both! This goes-with-anything, wear-anywhere must-have offers enough protection from the elements to keep you cosy without the need to lug a full-on winter coat with you.

THE TIMELESS BLOUSE
Say farewell to those short-sleeves for another year and instead invest in a blouse that will slot effortlessly into your autumn wardrobe. Plump for pretty pleats, frills and a high neck for the new season, while relaxed silhouettes and embroidered detailing adds a feminine edge.

THE PLAYFUL KNIT
From dinosaurs and daisies to cows and clouds, we’ve seen all manner of patterned knitwear and we love that not only do they do their job by keeping your warm but they add a spark of humour into the new season trends too.
