On hearing the words ‘autumn’s arrived’, people usually fall into one of two camps: those who are aghast at the thought of having to pack away their sundresses until spring and those who welcome chunky knits and heavy boots with open arms. If you sit in the latter category, you’ll be happy to know that it’s officially time to get your woollies out of the wardrobe, with October’s weather forecast looking cold, rainy and cold again.
So where to start with an autumn wardrobe? Entering a new season can seem daunting but last month’s roundup proved that many of the items you already own can be converted into autumn-appropriate clothing. For those looking to invest in some new cosy bits, though, we have a few suggestions of the best pieces on the market. Whether you’re on the lookout for the perfect chunky cardigan or the ideal snuggly sweatshirt, we’ve got you covered with our autumn fashion wish list.
I’m so pleased the cardigan has made its glorious return, as now there are so many vintage styles to choose from, whether you prefer festive Fair Isle or countryside-inspired argyle. I’ve had my eye on this striped number from ASOS Marketplace for a while.
