Helen Skelton has us shopping pastels for autumn after stunning in a striking powder blue jumper and matching floral midi skirt.
Autumn might have long been known for it's deep and dark colour palette, with the shorter, colder and darker days often prompting us to dress is deeper tones that match the dreary weather, Helen Skelton has reminded us that doesn't have to be the case all the time.
In a reel on Instagram, Helen looked stunning in a bright and colourful pastel look, pairing a powder blue button up cardigan jumper with a cream midi skirt that featured a fun, vintage-inspired blue floral print.

This blue ribbed cardigan jumper is the perfect elevated casual piece, transitioning effortlessly from daywear, to officewear, to nightwear too! We love that you can adjust the style by buttoning it all the way up, choosing to clasp one or two, or get a more laid-back look by leaving them undone completely.
This high-waisted, A-line midi skirt is a super wearable style for autumn, with the print bringing a pop of colour to any look while also using deeper blue tones to tie in better with the season. The side slit is sultry, adding interest and the mismatch of blue tones is lovely.
Made from a stunning soft touch leather, these brown court shoes are a versatile addition to any wardrobe. We love the curved heel and sleek pointed toe - plus, they're cushioned with a Forever Comfort footbed to make walking a breeze.
This powder blue shade is stunning! A true pastel shade, this fitted top is crafted from a soft rib knit fabric to keep you cosy while the deep, round neckline and split cuffs bring a stylish touch to the style. A super versatile basic piece in any wardrobe, you can easily pair this top with a variety of pieces you already own.
With the same cream and blue tones as Helen Skelton's stunning floral midi skirt, this skirt from Whistles is a great piece to recreate her look with. We love the cascading ruffle detail, with the high waist and A-line profile creating a flattering silhouette that will make a splash wherever you go.
With a walkable 6cm heel, these slingback heels from Dune London are a great choice to recreate Helen's look with. The slingback style is so timeless and classic, as is this stunning chocolate brown hue. We love how practical this shoe is, making sure you look great and that you can also still walk to where you need to be!
The two pieces worked perfectly together, with the soft blue tone of the jumper matching perfectly with the blues in the skirt. We love the pastel colour against the cream, which brings warm, autumn-ready feel to the outfit and creates a sleek and sophisticated look.
For shoes, Helen leaned into an elevated look with a pair of brown, point-toe court shoes. The warm brown tone worked brilliantly with the outfit, adding a softer touch than a jet-black shade would have done and proving that a good, staple pair of brown heels is an autumn capsule wardrobe must-have.
Helen's super voluminous ponytail really let the outfit shine, keeping her hair away from her face as it fell in bouncy curls down her back. The style had so much volume at the root, with a few face-framing pieces beautifully curled away from her face to highlight her features.
The ponytail wasn't too sleek, which gave the look a more laid-back, though still super elevated, feel. Helen leaned into this, keeping the top few buttons of her cardigan-style jumper undone and opting for a natural makeup look too.
Just a sweeping of bronzer and a glossy pink lip brought colour to her face, complimenting the blues of her look while also introducing another subtle and sweet colour.
