Zara’s latest collection has me ready to fully embrace the cooler temperatures, and after weeks of heatwaves, I’d almost forgotten about trousers and layering! But browsing their new-in section has reminded me just how much I enjoy getting dressed during this time of year. Give me a cosy knit, a blazer and a great pair of jeans, and I’m happy.
I’m looking for pieces that feel premium but won't cost me a lot, and that are easy to style. The things I consider when planning my autumn outfit ideas are cosy knits–ideally made from natural fibres to wear on cooler days–as well as smart blazers, sharp tailored separates and, of course, sturdy footwear; oh, and we can't forget a new practical tote bag.
