Switch up your style game this Autumn with Debenhams. Think of it as your one-stop shop for laid back. modem essentials. This season a tailored coat. a punchy knit, bold checks and plenty of layering arc the winter looks to wear.
Layering is a must in Ireland. Our unpredictable climate means the mecury can hit 20 degrees in October sunshine and drop below zero in the evening rain. It be a complicated business - but there is a subtle art to it.
Your layering formula should consist of: t-shirt • knitwear 4 jacket 4 coat • prepared for anything. One of the easiest ways to build up a layered look is to keep it tonal. And nothing says Autumn like tonal. Pick a colour and vary the hues to keep it interesting. Another way to add to your layering vibe is to think about texture. -think brushed cotton alongside knitted fabrics.
Most importantly, you need two pieces of outerwear for the win. One should be a lightweight jacket or even an over shirt. just be sure to make the top coat count. A roomier silhouette that plays around with length and fit creates a layered look with an air of nonchalance. With this in mind. an oversized. quilted parka will fit the bill perfectly.
Once you have got your layers pinned down. team with a slim but relaxed fit trouser with leather boots for a considered yet laid back look This Autumn the trend is towards an on point colour palette, simple but bold patterns rounded off with a hint of 90's aesthetic. The idea of combining bold colour and pattern in one outfit can seem daunting. But fear not. - you just need to consider a few points to master the an of mixing.
Warmer shades such as orange are easiest to mix with other colours but above all make sure to pick a colour you like. One rule to stick to is • The bolder the colour. the simpler the style should be • stick to bright basics such as a cotton sweatshirt like this one with a zip neck detail. There should be at least one element of neutral in your look. for example a black pair of trousers will work well with all colours. Combat trousers will add a laid back vibe to your outfit and will give you more freedom to play around with colour.
Add a crossbody bag in a contrasting. punchy colour. This accent will inject a clever clash to complete a look that exudes modern style. Adding a touch of utility wear to your wardrobe will be one of the smartest things you'll do this Autumn/Wmter Sure. it's a style that will shield you from wind and rain but it also promises to elevate any look.
Even when you're wearing the most simple of outfits. add a pair of lace up boots or raw denim jeans with a wide roll up. Go a step further towards functionality with a nylon bag with extra pockets. Function has never been so fashionable. Debenhams has your new. go to autumn/ winter staples for a low maintenance. everyday style that will inject freshness into your wardrobe.
