I've create some amazing visuals and even included some products that are available online at affordable prices to help inspire you whilst updating your winter wardrobe! 




Camel & Black
Nothing looks more classy and sophisticated than a camel and black colour combo. Perfect for casual day-wear, work wear and evenings, you just can't go wrong..ever. The iconic camel coat is one of the best statement jackets you could possibly get your hands on this season. Team it with bold black trousers, patent black loafers or even a hint of leopard print to for a real style statement.

Better known as Burgundy, this shade will never go out of fashion at this time of year. The bold berry shade works best with a variety of creams and ivory colours. The gorgeous combination oozes fall/winter and looks totally effortless!

Burgundy & Mustard..
Burgundy is super popular at this time of year, but are you brave enough to try it with a hint of Mustard? The daring look works great as it almost reminds us of the crisp Autumn leaves falling from the trees. So really, you can't help but look super seasonal. The perfect combination if you're looking to stand out from the crowd and look crazy stylish all at the same time. These colours work so well together, so layer up!

October is one of my favourite months. The leaves start to change colour, the air gets fresher and the winter clobber starts making an appearance! Whether you shop online or in store, retailers have their autumn/winter wardrobes at the ready. Below are just a few of my favourite picks this October. All titles will include a link, so if you really want it, just click and the link will take you straight to the product, voila! 



Ladylike dressing just got even easier with this sassy cream stripe knitted jumper. Its soft faux-fur trim will give your daytime look a sophisticated edge - and it can be removed too. Could this be any more versatile this season? Team with a luxe-leather bomber jacket for the perfect finish.


 Over the knee boots are back and this time they are becoming a statement piece with every outfit. These faux suede beauties feature a mid-height heel and a stretch hem for the perfect fit. The soft-to-the-touch boots will look good with a 70's style swing dress or over a pair of leather leggings  if you fancy a more bold and daring look. At just £69 these are a total steal!


 This absolute beauty screams autumn/winter. The latest collection from Urban Code is available at ASOS and features this amazing Chevron stripe coat in faux fur. Displaying the most crisp seasonal shades including burnt orange, rust, black, white and mint green, the coat will work with pretty much anything. From classic black boots to jeans and dresses.

For a beautiful statment dress for that upcoming event of yours, opt for the black bodycon dress from Miss Selfridge. Featuring beautiful silver embellishments around a deep plunge neckline and a strappy open back feature, you cant go wrong with this little number! Team with a slinky pair of barely there heels and a silver clutch bag for the ultimate sophisticated look in seconds. Finish the look with a classic red lip or try a more autumn inspired burnt orange shade.


 The popular funnel collar is back this season and Zara have managed to blend both neckline and colouring together so well to create a winter ready top in a wild berry red shade. The funnel collar makes even the most casual knitwear instantly smarter, making it a versatile piece to add to your winter wardrobe. The top also has a matching skirt with is available to buy seperately. Both items are linked together online so it's easy to find if you're after the whole shabang!

Nothing works better than a mixture of Autumn/Winter shades against a blend of faux leather and felt. This smart colour block coat is a wardrobe must-have. The high quality item features two front zip pockets, colour block panels and a round collar to show off your new roll-neck jumper. The jacket works with smart leather skirts, high waisted jeans and a pair of chunkiy cleated sole boots.


 When the winter sun is shining its always handy to have an updated pair of sunglasses in your handbag. These amazing cat-eye shaped sunglasses from ASOS are a complete winnter. The thin, feminine frame is perfect and lightweight when on-the-go. The cat eye shape is perfect for most face shapes and will complete any outfit in an instant.

These black leather beauties are perfect for almost any outfit. Featuring an elasticated fit and a chunky heel, the sophisicated boots will work well with anything from skinny jeans to tights and a high waisted skirt.

The boots feature a silver metallic toe cap, reptile print all over in a subtle monochrome and a contrasting dark brown heel. Great if you're looking to show off your wild 80's side.


Careless Brogue Chelsea Boots - Office - £89
One of my all time favourite Chelsea Boot styles is the Brogue design. These timeless classics blend both a masculine and feminine look in one, with the dainty brogue detailing all over. The contrast of patent black leather sitting upon a brown rubber sole is one hell of a combo and gives you a biker chic look in seconds.

The handcrafted Italian 'Bruna' boots are a definitley a pair of Chelsea's that will catch the attention of everyone. Using a unique pink shade to create the elasticated ankle against a beige suede upper, these quirky boots are for the brave. The boots include a light anf flexible sole for extra comfort.
