A Style Insider Reveals Her New-Season Wish List
West End Leopard Coat
£677 | Mode & Affaire
Everyone needs at least one completely unnecessary, fabulous item on their wish list and this is mine. I love leopard when it’s treated almost like a neutral and the oversized leather silhouette with the fur trim makes this feel so glamorous and a little bit vintage.

Robyn Ballet Flats
£98.97 | Tony Bianco
I’m still very much in my flats era and I love the contrast toe here. The little bow and rounded shape make them feel feminine but the black suede is still grown-up – not to mention easy to style. Wear them with oversized trousers for a glimpse of the shoe or with a long skirt and knit.

Maison Celine Belt
£790 | Celine
I’m really drawn to pieces that can completely change the feel of an outfit and a good belt is something I’ll wear for years. I love how understated this Celine one is – the slim black leather and gold hardware feel polished without being too logo-heavy. I’d wear it over oversized tailoring, knitwear or even a coat to give everything a little more shape.

Amie Sweater
£355 | Almada
A black knit is probably one of the hardest-working pieces in my wardrobe, especially once autumn really starts. I love knitwear that feels slightly oversized and effortless rather than too neat or fitted, and this is exactly the sort of piece I’d throw on with wide-leg trousers, a long skirt or over a dress.

Pleated Wide Leg Trousers
£14 (were £20) | Marks & Spencer
I’m a serial outfit repeater and black wide-leg trousers are probably one of my most repeated pieces. You can wear these ones with everything from a fine knit and ballet flats to an oversized blazer and heels.
Available at MARKS&SPENCER.COM
Long Shield-Effect Necklace
£60 | Massimo Dutti
Longer necklaces are so back, especially worn over very simple knitwear. This feels almost sculptural, so you don’t really need much else with it – wear it over a black crew-neck knit or a high-neck dress and let the jewellery be the focal point.

Maeve Lightweight Jacket
£275 | DISSH
We all need those transitional jackets you can throw on when it isn’t quite cold enough yet for a proper coat. I love the clean, slightly oversized shape of this one and the natural colour makes it so easy to layer over darker tones. It’s the sort of thing I’d wear with black trousers, a knit underneath and good flats.

Calf Hair Café Mini Bag
£189 | Verafied New York
Now’s the time to add a little bit of animal print to your outfit and zebra feels slightly less expected than leopard. The shape of this bag is so chic and compact – wear it with an all-black or tonal look so it becomes the moment. I’m also really drawn to calf-hair for autumn because it adds texture without having to overthink the rest of the outfit.

Anja Reversible Trench
£165 | Damson Madder
This is a fun piece. I love a classic trench but the fact this one is reversible gives you two completely different moods in one coat and I’m always drawn to clothes that can be styled in different ways.

Angular Leather Heeled Loafers
£139 | COS
I love a shoe that gives you a little height but still feels practical enough for everyday, and these are such a good alternative to a traditional heel. The angular shape makes them far more directional than a classic loafer.
Available at COS.COM
Chunky Tall Riding Boots
£200 | The White Company
A tall black riding boot is such an autumn staple. The chunkier sole makes these feel a little more contemporary and also far more practical for everyday. Style them under long skirts and dresses or with leggings and an oversized coat.

Wool Twill Poncho
£385 | St. Agni
Ponchos and capes are something I always come back to because they make layering feel so effortless. I love the drama of this one but it’s also completely wearable – particularly over an all-black look with a tall boot underneath.
