There might not be much to get dressed up for these days, but that means every outing - whether it’s to meet a friend at your nearest outdoor heater or simply stroll round the park - deserves some extra effort, right? Stocking up on a few autumn essentials will also stand you in excellent stead for 2021 (the early bird gets the worm, and all that).

This is why we want to direct your attention to Topshop Idol, the brand’s special collection of seasonal hits that will really get you feeling excited about cold weather. Firstly, the colours palette is full of this season’s bounty, with deep forest greens, maple leaf reds and sumptuous creams in the mix.

Secondly, it’s got some of the best coats you’ll find on the high street, from a leopard print number that has the perfect amount of tailoring to a mock-croc khaki leather trench coat that you can throw over anything. It's like the exciting, promising Topshop of your youth – but possibly even better.
