If you’re checking your weather app on the daily and unsure whether to stow away your sandals in lieu of boots, then this post is for you, sweetie. Autumn 2018 has arrived and, with it, the uncertainty of what to wear. Is it warm or is it cold? – It seems the weather is undergoing a serious case of identity crisis. No matter, because we know that the transitional season is always a tricky period to navigate, we are here to solve the timeless what-to-wear-dilemma that comes with it.
Dresses for women
If you aren’t ready to say goodbye to the pretty summer dresses for women just yet, we have the perfect cheat code for you – Wear them with tights, or layer an oversized cardigan or leather jacket over them. Recently, we’ve seen quite a few being pulled off with under layers like turtle necks and white shirts, too. Dresses are the easiest option when it comes to transitional styling because they’re simple, fuss-free and easy to layer. Other options include the trusty shirtdress, the flattering wrap dress and the sassy bodycon.
Colours & Prints
As Pantone dictated at the beginning of the year, purple – and all shades that come with it – are trending majorly right now. We also can’t get enough of plaid and check print as well as patent, vinyl and plastic accessories.
Round out your ensembles with key accessories featuring any of the above or opt for a bold lip to individualise your autumn looks.
Shoes for women
Oversized, ugly sneakers are the new wave, thanks to Balenciaga and Kanye West. While we aren’t fully sure whether this fashion trend will fully take off on our shores, it is necessary to mention (You heard it here first kids). Where heels are concerned, we have noted that the kitten heel has made a drastic comeback this season. Square toes are also steadily making their way into the shoes for women trend charts, along with asymmetrical-shape heels.
Layers
Nothing says “I’m ready for winter” quite like a cosy top layer. While winter hasn’t officially greeted us yet, we have a few ideas on how to gear up for the cold season. Favourites include the shearling aviator jacket, lightweight parkas and oversized blazers that provide a necessary sartorial finish.
A statement jacket is the easiest way to make any outfit stylish, so opt for any of the above and team it with your jeans and tees for a model-approved trendy look that is guaranteed not to fail.
As we bid summer adieu, we accordingly say goodbye to the off-shoulder tops, bikinis and flip flops, too.
T’is the season to start stocking up on cosy knits and invest in boots. Discover a new wardrobe for each season on the online store here.
