Marks & Spencer Autumn picks

Autumn is launching all over the high street right now. Marks & Spencer have come with a big statement about their fashion and it’s with ‘big energy’.

No longer just about knickers and grey school trousers, the brand is pushing its fashionability giving it’s departments a fresh new drive for the season ahead. The styling of the brands marketing campaign still remains to be the best part, sometimes in real life the pieces they are pushing are still. not as fashion forward as they are styled.

I still find M&S tricky to shop instore, the layout and the merchandising still looks dated and I can’t often find pieces I am looking for because they have been put back with other pieces that you perhaps would not wear with it. Online is better but often the best things go out of stock super quickly. Whilst shopping with a client in M&S the other day I did a try on and pulled some outfits together of the pieces I liked whilst in store.

The online range is much more extensive and I love mixing up the different trends they have chosen to back this season. I have pulled together 2 mood boards of pieces I love at the moment. One is for COOL tones and one is for WARM tones.

AUTUMN TRENDS 2024

These are the 5 standout trends for me that I will be embracing & wearing in the coming season. I have nearly 25 years experience in the fashion industry, I shop every single day for my clients & I know from being a buyer how to interpret trends for them to become best sellers.

These trends are a guide that influences style, fashion & many other things. When I do my job I interpret these trends for each client in their own personal style. It's not about jumping on the trends each season it's about how to stay up to date & stylish for your style.

The knitted dress

The last couple of Winter’s the knitted dress has had a resurgence but it’s updated for 2022. These easy to throw on dresses can be worn for work, weekend, the school run or out for evening all depending on your footwear. I wear mine with trainers and boots, with bare legs right now and thick black tights in the colder weeks. I love that it keeps me warm when working from home, I can pop on a blazer for work appointments and then a leather biker for evenings out. It’s so versatile you will wonder what you did without one!

What to wear on Christmas Day

This is always a dilemma for alot of Women out there and I often get asked; “What can I wear on Christmas Day?”. Lots of practical reasons will have an affect on what you wear on the big day; Are you cooking? Are you having guests? Do you go out for lunch? It also can be filled in family traditions, some people get really dressed up and others stay in their pyjamas all day chilling out grazing on cheese and chocolate. But this year more than ever it seems to be in the forefront of our minds, maybe because we were locked down last year so there was no need to make any effort, so this year people do.

Organised shoppers will invest in hardworking pieces – co-ords are always a clever buy – that can be dressed up and down to suit every festive situation. But, then again, this day only comes once a year; so I’ve included a few statement looks that will serve you for many a Christmas to come. If you’re on the relaxed end of the scale, you can still dress for the occasion: luxe loungewear is such a stylish option as is the comfy knitted dress.

Whether you’re ready to embrace a festive ensemble, looking for something more versatile to work all winter, or just want pyjamas you're happy to be photographed in, I’ve rounded up some of the best Christmas Day outfits right here to show you how to spend Christmas day in style.
