What To Buy Now Autumn’s (Nearly) Here

BY FELICITY ROBINSON

After breezing through life in linen dresses and loose bohemian tops, the first sharp wind of autumn is an unpleasant sartorial surprise. How can you keep up those happy summer vibes while still staying properly warm? With a few well-chosen transitional pieces,  that’s how.

Our shopping editor Tara Morris suggests that you start by looking for a light-weight jumper in a cheerful pastel shade. You’ll still feel connected to summer, but you’ll have a piece you can throw in your bag for when the air turns cold.

Everlane $254

COS $135

Then, a denim jacket. Choose the all-time classic boxy shape and mid-blue wash that works over pretty much any look.

Thrills $135

Levis $320

For shoes, Tara recommends a  low-heeled sling-back. Your toes will be toasty warm but your heels  will provide a cheeky  kick of skin under a tailored pant.

Ganni $525

By Far $433

Her final tip is, of course, layering. “Loose dresses can be layered with T-shirts, jumpers and shirts to keep warmer. By next year, you’ll be ready to wear them solo for spring.”

Venroy $220

Pippa $169
