Say hello to September with a beautiful trench coat. Nab this sleek version, with a printed lining, from Sézane before it sells out – we also recommend H&M and COS for good high street versions. Always polished, a trench is best worn with salt-sprayed, wavy hair that hints at the beach days you’ve just left behind. See style influencer Alice Pilate, above, who nails this look with aplomb.
Amp up a simple shirt and jeans combination with a lively pop of red via your accessories. For a change, finish your look with silver jewellery, rather than gold: it’ll feel fresh for September.
Still in summer mode (mentally, at least)? Prolong the life of a statement white skirt by pairing it with a no-fuss workwear inspired jacket and a comfy knit.
Speaking of easy knits, now’s the time to break out an Aran sweater to layer up over lightweight pieces. Upgrade the look for September by wearing ballet flats or loafers, rather than sandals.
Additionally, on the topic of workwear jackets, we’ll be waiting patiently for this one by Dôen to restock – not too yellow, not too white, it’s the perfect shade.
An easy way to nod to September? Wear something beige. Warm tones of toffee or camel automatically feel luxurious, and at once shift your look into an autumn mood.
The styling piece of the season? A pair of leopard print flats. These ones, pictured, are by Totême and if they whet your appetite we’ve rounded up an edit of the best leopard print shoes here.
Try a new denim shape for autumn. We love the laissez-faire look of barrel jeans, which seem to boast an in-built slouch: perfect for days when you don’t want to look like you’ve made too much of an effort but still want to look put-together.
Anouk Yve’s hack for reinventing last year’s knits? Find two that are similar shades and knot one around your shoulders for a tonal look that is possibly the 2024 update on quiet luxury. Note how a sleeveless knit works well for September temperatures.
Still craving a hint of summer? Finish your outfit with black flip flops or black kitten heels with a thong detail. Even if the rest of your outfit is transitional, it’s a good way to hold onto those last days of summer.
