A week in the sun wardrobe for Autumns

You might feel that your Autumn palette lends itself more to sensible country dressing than hot weather holidays, but holiday gives you the perfect opportunity to embrace some of the more vibrant shades in your palette for a truly tropical holiday wardrobe.

Why not try out some of the bolder shades in your palette, such as tropical lime green, orange and saffron? Pair them with breezy cream or soft white and tan for an off duty Autumn look. On days when you want a more sophisticated finish, you can stick to your ever-so elegant lighter neutrals like warm grey, light beige and gold (gold is a neutral when you're on holiday, it's official).

When it comes to deciding which pieces to actually pack, you can't beat the 5-4-3-2-1 rule...

Choose five tops to start off your holiday wardrobe. Base your Autumn palette holiday wardrobe around tonal shades which compliment each other if you layer them up. Take at least one top which can double up for evening, and a lightweight long sleeved top in case of sunburn.

Choose four bottoms which harmonise with your tops. Neutrals are often easiest here as they go with everything, but don't be afraid to inject a brighter colour which tones in with your tops.

Three pairs of shoes - flip flops for the beach, some evening-appropriate sandals and a comfy pair of shoes for sightseeing. For maximum versatility opt for your Autumn neutrals like tan, chocolate or gold.

You only need one handbag. Make it comfortable and make sure it tones in with the rest of your holiday wardrobe.

A cashmere gauze stole is perfect for covering up against any unexpected air conditioning chill as well as doubling up as a cushion on the flight or as an evening wrap.
