Seasonal Style Guide - Anna Mewes

Feeling overwhelmed with all the gorgeous newness that’s in the shops at the moment? This month I’ve picked my top pieces to focus on for your Autumn/Winter wardrobe; from staple items that every woman should own through to more current pieces to update your look…

The Camel Coat

Every wardrobe should have a neutral, longline coat - perfect to smarten up a casual jeans and trainer combination but they also work equally well over dresses and skirts. This timeless item is worth investing a little more in to ensure a superior fit and longevity in your wardrobe.

The Chunky Boot

The Chelsea boot has been reinvented this season with a chunky sole to give this classic style a little edge. If you’re in the market for some Autumn/Winter footwear then this style will instantly update any outfit whilst also being fairly timeless so you can be confident you’ll be able to wear it for several seasons to come.

The Sleeveless Sweater Vest

I love layering in the colder months and this season’s trend for sleeveless vests is perfect for styling in so many different ways. Try a simple shirt or roll neck underneath, belt a longer one to give it some shape or wear alone with coated skinnies.

The Knitted Dress

I find dresses so much easier and more comfortable to wear at any time of year but knitted ones add that extra snuggle factor that I just can’t get enough of! Choose a fabulous Autumnal shade and style with black tights and boots with a leather jacket to give some shape to the look.

The Quilted Bag

Quilting is everywhere this season and a quilted longline coat is the perfect ‘any weather’ outerwear for the changeable British Autumnal weather. Quilting is also featuring on bags and accessories this season, elevating a simple cross-body to add texture and interest.

The Everyday Accessory

No outfit is complete without a little accessorising and this season is all about hoops! Hooped earrings are one of those current trends that will remain timeless - if you want to make a statement then go for a supersize option!
