Your wardrobe update heroes - Summer

Dressing the Summer palette into autumn/winter can often feel challenging, as your light, airy shades can feel a little disconnected from the cold dark weather outside, but I would encourage you not to sacrifice your palette! Anchor your softer, lighter colours with deep greys and cosy teals, and add textures which bring back your Summer softness without sacrificing warmth.

With that in mind, I've picked the six new season items that are going to lift your look as the temperature drops, and keep working hard for you all autumn/winter long. I've kept a Princess personal style in mind when putting this selection together, but if that isn't you, don't panic - simply read on to find out which subtle shifts you need to make to your new season essentials list to best suit your own personal style.

Your essentials

Silky Roll Neck | Print Arabella Dress | Connie Sweater | Vintage Collar | Phoebe Blouse | Jersey Maxi Skirt

Style notes:

I've opted for a mix of darker neutrals and a touch of lighter blue to switch your wardrobe into an autumn/winter look, as well as adding texture and print to keep your tonal, softness. I love the Phoebe Blouse with the Jersey Maxi skirt, but it will pair equally well with jeans, and the Silky Roll neck will keep you cosy under the Arabella Dress or the Connie Sweater as the temperature drops.

New season picks for an Adventurer

Simply remove one or two of the fussier, prettier elements from my selection and replace them with something a bit more laid back, a bit more you. I would be inclined to opt for the oh-so-cool Lucy Leopard Dress in place of the Print Arabella, and switching the Vintage Collar for a gorgeously soft and cosy Cashmere Gauze Stole.

New season picks for a Minimalist

You might want to go a little more sleek and modern, which the Print Arabella will work so well for, but try switching out the Phoebe Blouse for something more classic like a Breton Stripe Boat Neck or a Cotton Jersey Shirt. You might also want to swap the Vintage Collar for a (neatly tied!) Cashmere Gauze Stole.

New season picks for a Pixie

Maxi skirts are rarely your friend, but the new Luxe Leggings are possibly the find of the century for you, so switch them into your selection in place of the Jersey Maxi Skirt, and think about adding in our bestselling Mia Long Sweater to wear over the top for a cosy-but-stylish take on the tunic with leggings look. You might also want to switch the Arabella Dress (potentially a little long if you're petite) for a neat Lottie Dress.

New season picks for a Movie Star

You want to remove the boring and amp up the glamour, so try switching the Silky Roll Neck for a sumptuous Long Sleeve Cowl Neck, and the Phoebe Blouse for a Verity Lace Blouse or a Long Sleeve Faux Wrap. The Connie Sweater, which might be a little frumpy on you, is best switched for the luxurious warmth of the Merino Crossover.
