Peachy Den is the label loved by Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid, Kaia Gerber and Dua Lipa, and its designs tend to sell out at record speeds. This trench coat is well on its way to doing just that – the vintage vibes and pretty details are already proving popular with cool girls everywhere, so add this to basket while you still can.

Autumn calls for new pyjamas and this pair of PJ pants could not be dreamier. Made from super-soft ethical cotton, they are incredibly comfortable and in a timeless gingham, too.

I recently took this bag to a wedding and received so many compliments, it was (almost) embarrassing. The bag itself resembles a giant pearl – with enough room for your essentials (phone, lipstick, credit card) – which comes with a gold chain strap you can wear on your shoulder, cross-body or even on your wrist. It even comes with a crystal beauty kit, including a white jade Gua Sha
and a facial roller, meaning you can look your very best as you, too, collect compliments on your excellent accessory.

To make getting dressed easier during chillier days, look for stand-out pieces that are also low maintenance. Case in point? This leopard print denim midi from ALIGNE, which is a throw-on-and-go kind of dress – but one which packs a punch, thus only requiring the addition of black ankle boots to complete the outfit. See? Easy.

Barrel leg jeans have become a sell-out hit in the last few months, with many designer styles taking centre stage. They can be a bit daunting, however, due to the curved shape of the leg, which is why this H&M pair is so brilliant. The curve is minor, so you're getting all the benefits of a barrel leg in the most flattering way possible. Oh, and it's worth mentioning that these jeans are under £40, which is nothing short of incredible.

Mark the start of October by upping your knitwear game. Essentiel Antwerp's oversized chunky knit, in the shade of the season (a deep shade of oxblood red, FYI) can be worn as a cosy turtleneck or neat crew neck depending on how warm you want to be.

It's starting to feel autumnal now, which is the best time to invest in cold weather essentials that will stand the test of time. This aviator jacket from M&S is exactly that – it's practical, stylish and will go with just about everything you own. Plus, it's under £90, which feels like a real bargain.

These boots will undoubtedly sell out, so get ahead of the crowd and buy them while you still can. The good news is that you could get away with only buying these this season and yet your entire wardrobe will look brand new – that's how chic they are. Under midi dresses, long coats, or with shorter skirts, they'll make any outfit instantly more stylish.

It's rare that an affordable bag takes fashion week by storm but that's exactly what happened in New York recently, as a whole hoard of show-goers were spotted with Charles & Keith's knotted bag. It's been so popular, in fact, that it's already sold out once but is now, thankfully, back in stock. It's the back-to-school bag you've always wanted.

You can always count on Whistles for a super-chic coat collection. Shop this sartorial take on a puffer jacket to stay warm and look amazing at all times for the season ahead - also available in cool khaki if you're prone to spills.
