Anita Rani battles the autumn wind in style with a tie dye jumper and chunky black boots
You don't have to ditch style when putting together a practical outfit - and Anita Rani has proved just that with her latest look
Anita Rani has proved that you don't have to ditch style for practicality this autumn, with the presenter keeping warm in a tie dye jumper and chunky black boots as she spent time on the windy shores of Anglesey.
Preparing ourselves, and our wardrobes, for the cooler months after the fun and vibrancy of our summer outfits can feel daunting. Colour palettes tend to be more muted, with items chosen for their practicality rather than their stunning design - though finding a flattering a stylish winter coat is easier than you might think.
Now, Anita Rani has given us all the outfit inspiration we need, showing exactly how to bring fun pops of colour into our autumn capsule wardrobes with pieces that'll keep us warm and cosy as well as looking stylish.
Sharing a video to Instagram about her time spent on the windy shores of Anglesey, Anita wore a bright and bold tie dye jumper, with its series of fun orange shades standing out against the natural background of the countryside.
Letting the jumper shine, she paired it with some practical black trousers. The shine of the fabric hints that they are waterproof, with the cuffed legs and tight fit undoubtedly keeping her warm despite the chill of the wind.
We love her chunky black boots that make for the perfect winter footwear. With a chunky sole and tight-to-the-ankle design, they're a great shoe to pair with any autumnal outfit, being both practical in wet and cold weather and also stylish, whether paired with jeans or a maxi dress.
