We never thought we’d be adding socks and boat shoes to the top of our wish-list, but there’s something about this combination that just works. Perhaps it’s the tonal hues of the tan leather shoes paired with a neutral trench coat and the simplicity of a thick grey wool sock, but this is a look we love.
Double denim (shop an edit of the best styles to buy now here), stripes and a great knit slung over your shoulders; take lessons in laid-back autumn dressing from French style influencer Alice Pilate.
In case you needed any confirmation that those tenets of retro dressing – flared jeans and a black turtleneck – are always a good idea, look to this outfit that oozes 1970s simplicity.
Woven bags aren’t just for summer as this neutral winter outfit proves. Look for a bag that uses woven leather, rather than a traditional basket bag that is more suited to summer. We love brands such as Dragon Diffusion and Rimini.
Whoever said November dressing had to be so serious? We’ll be taking our cue from this jaunty look that embraces glorious pops of colour, in all the right places.
There may be a lot of focus on brown as the colour of the moment, but don’t forget about the eternal appeal of grey, either. If you’re looking for a great winter coat, you can’t go wrong with a grey wool, or wool-mix, coat that belts, robe-style, around the waist (see a round up of the best winter coats at every price point here).
If, like us, winter dressing leaves you with the eternal conundrum of, ‘what shoes can I wear with jeans?’, then you’re not alone. Right now, the idea of a chunky but still elegant loafer in glossy black, or claret, with luxe socks and straight-leg jeans appeals.
On the topic of the best shoes to wear with jeans, we’re taking style notes from Lucy Williams, who combines black jeans with dramatic turn-ups and a pair of lug-soled boots for the ultimate off-duty look.
There’s nothing we love more than an easy, statement piece and we’ve noticed that a bold red scarf is the perfect finishing touch to any outfit right now, according to the style set. Look for one that boasts a dramatic length (try this one here, for €24) for extra impact.
Ignore the naysayers, white for winter is impossibly chic. Think: a pair of ecru, or white jeans, paired with a striped knit and a light, neutral blazer.
