Transseaso­nal JACKETS

LIGHT BUT WARM LAYERS WILL SEE YOU RIGHT THROUGH AUTUMN

-

Blazer

My forever go-to is a tailored blazer. It works beautifull­y for work but also over a dress or skirt and is simply fabulous with denim.

This Portmans khaki blazer with its statement gold buttons is nipped in at the waist and made from a lightweigh­t textile.

For a chic daytime look, style it with a gold sequin tee from Max and a pair of Postie ankle-grazing jeans.

JACKET $149.99 from PORTMANS. TEE $69.99 from MAX. JEANS $29 from POSTIE. EARRINGS $10.90 from COLETTE BY COLETTE HAYMAN. XCESRI NECKLACE

$12.99 from FARMERS. ACCESSORIE­S BAG $29.99 from EZIBUY. SHOES $159.90 from WITCHERY.

Trench

A trench coat is a timeless investment piece as it works from season to season. No matter how you wear it, you’ll always look put together and elegant.

This Farmers trench in a soft pink shade has a little sheen, which keeps it feminine and fun.

Styled with a simple navy knit top from Postie and a pair of Portmans culottes, it will give you a modern officewear look.

OLIVER BLACK COAT $159.99 from FARMERS. KNIT TOP $15 from POSTIE. CULOTTES $99.99 from PORTMANS. XCESRI EARRINGS $14.99 (FOR SET) from FARMERS. NEXT BAG $69.99 and NEXT SHOES $49.99 both from EZIBUY.

Biker

Texture is a hot trend this season and this EziBuy biker jacket is hard to beat. What’s more, the navy shade is a perfect alternativ­e to black and it is not as harsh to wear.

I’ve paired it here with coordinate­d speckle knit separates from Country Road and a pair of blue ankle boots for a cohesive look that will work no matter where your day takes you.

EMERGE JACKET $189.99 from EZIBUY. TOP $159 and SKIRT $179 both from COUNTRY ROAD. EARRINGS $14.99 from COLETTE BY COLETTE HAYMAN. KINDRED SOLES BOOTS $89.99 from FARMERS.

Kimono

Unstructur­ed coats and jackets are still in fashion, and this pink Rapture number from Ketz-ke is a gorgeous cover-up.

The coat works beautifull­y with this Farmers print dress, but would also look great with denim on the weekends.

Tie this outfit together with blue loafers for a modern combinatio­n.

COAT $159 from KETZ-KE. WHISTLE DRESS $99.99 from FARMERS. EARRINGS $12.90 from COLETTE BY COLETTE HAYMAN. EMERGE LOAFERS $99.99 from EZIBUY.

The bomber jacket isn’t going anywhere fast and this stunning floral option from Portmans is a must-buy.

It’s worn here with a denim skirt from EziBuy and paired with some rose gold pieces for a stylish look suitable to wear anywhere.

JACKET $99.99, TOP $29.99 and EARRINGS $16.99 all from PORTMANS. XCESRI NECKLACE $12.99 from FARMERS. CAPTURE SKIRT $59.99 from EZIBUY. LACED FLATS $59.99 from NUMBER ONE SHOES.
