New M&S Big Autumn collection has everything you want for the transitional months ahead - here are my top picks
Parisian trench coats, sleek brown leather skirts, merino wool knitwear, and much more—here's what I'm wishing for this autumn
M&S' new autumn collection is already proving popular with customers, and is hitting my cold weather styling criteria. So here are my favourite items from this fabulous collection to see you through the months ahead.
The hunt has officially begun for finding those staples to renew and refresh our autumn capsule wardrobe, and you needn't look further than the M&S Big Autumn Energy collection. They have truly outdone themselves. This collection includes quality knitwear in seasonal colours, stylish leather, on-trend jackets, plus vibrant statement pieces such as the blue velvet blazer and matching straight-leg trousers. And it doesn't stop there; there are fashion-forward shoes and handbags, with cool studded ballet flats and designer-looking totes too.
Top picks from the Big Autumn Energy collection
This brown faux leather jacket is a piece of outwear that every wardrobe deserves. Designed in a classic style with a high neck and an elasticated hem, this jacket is not only stylish but is also comes in a super flattering cut. Check out our Marks & Spencer coats review for more wintry options.
Chocolate brown tones are set to heavily trend this autumn, and M&S's latest collection confirms this with this fabulous leather brown skirt, which has an accompanying faux leather top. Style this skirt with heels, ballet flats, loafers or even your best white trainers.
If you've been keeping up with the latest fashion trends, you'll know that people can't get enough of green. This textured jumper is bold and vibrant and will keep you warm through the upcoming. Plus it's only £25, a real steal for quality, stylish knitwear.
There is something about the turning of season that immediately has me eyeing up the latest scarfs, and this vibrant orange pick has a cozy oversized shape and is ultra-stylish. Incorporate it into your white jeans outfits for a fabulous daytime look.
The sight of velvet transports me to winter special occasions, and this vibrant blue blazer is truly brilliant. It features a satin trimmed collar and is finished with two exterior pockets. Style with the matching trousers for the ultimate smart attire.
If you're looking for the perfect cardigan, this might just be the one. Made with a flattering slim fit and featuring a unique white collar, this piece is ultra-stylish. Pair this with your favourite denim jeans, white tailored trousers or finish off a daytime dress with this piece.
This shoulder bag is a great choice for fitting all of your daytime essentials in it and more! It's ideal for finishing off those smart office outfits, styled with a tailored trouser look and it has a slouchy silhouette, and a zip for securing your belongings too.
Studded ballet flats have well and truly taken on an iconic status this year, and they are the perfect transitional shoe. They also offer so many styling options from pairing with maxi-skirts and dresses to accompanying knitwear and denim. What's not to love?
