It’s the most wonderful time of the year: Autumn, that is.
Too early for Christmas shopping, too late for summer dieting, October is about long walks in the park, crunchy leaves underfoot, and indulging in a guilt-free grande pumpkin latte en route home.
Here’s what to wear on those chilly mornings and cool afternoons:
1. Be snug as the proverbial bug in this festival of cosiness, a bargain €45 from Penneys.
2. This grey sleeveless waistcoat is the perfect sling-on addition to any outfit. €49.99, New Look.
3. These flat ankle boots (€59.95, Zara) were made for kicking leaves with the kids…
4. Add this Bouclé Cardigan to your work basics for a cosy day at the office, €39.95, Zara.
5. Cuddle up in a decadent mohair blend jumper (€59.99, H&M) – Bailey’s coffee and romantic novel optional.
6. Hide a dodgy ‘do and keep toasty at the same time in a knitted beanie by Alice Hannah (€35 at Arnotts).
7. We’ll be draping this Border Navaho Buckle Cardigan (€24, Penneys) over light summer dresses for the last of the Indian summer.
8. These giant faux fur wraps are available in 18 colours from Leeside boutique Brocade & Lime. We want them ALL.
9. A wide brim hat will keep the rain off your hair and the sun out of your eyes… ideal for autumn’s unpredictable weather. €20, Folkster.
