New knitwear: it’s almost worth the falling temperatures to get your hands on some. From chunky roll-neck sweaters, to cosy cardigans, to effortlessly chic wraps, this fall offers a wealth of stylish and snuggly possibilities. Wearing your knits with denim is an outfit no-brainer; it’s the simplest formula for a lovely winter outfit. Alternatively, a boxy sweater over a slip skirt offers an up-to-date take on cold-weather dressing. Add hiker boots for extra sartorial points.
Decided to treat yourself to a new winter coat? Then why not go for a modern classic such as the teddy coat, which is both deliciously cosy and a fashion crowd-pleaser. We’ll be slinging one over everything from mini dresses to a cashmere sweater and skinny jeans. Equally desirable is a sharply tailored checked coat. Heritage prints are a massive trend for winter, and latte tones will go with any outfit.
Chilly days call for luxurious layers – we’ll be rolling out the thermals this winter, as well as natural materials such as the wool in this checked coat, which cocoons you in warmth. Complete the look with a stylist’s top tip: belting your coat for a chic silhouette. As well as traditional checks, herringbone is also having a moment. This coffee-coloured coat plays into this season’s love of all things brown.
Just because it’s winter, doesn’t mean you have to ditch all the prettiness and pattern of summer. Instead, re-use your hot-weather dresses and skirts with some clever layering, whether that’s popping them over a fine roll neck with pantyhose, adding a slouchy sweater and thick socks, or adding tailoring on top.
