Of course, like with any season, there are those trends that only look good coming down a runway but in my trend guide, you will only find the chic fashion trends for autumn winter that you can actually wear. Not only have I given you some styling tips for each one, but I’ve also linked to some fabulous pieces from the high street (Save your £££ for the classics right?)

Like with any trend, it’s important to remember to work it into a classic look to truly reach a new level of chic. I love a good trend as much as the next girl but it’s all about staying true to your style as well. I hope you find my tips for that useful!

ANIMAL PRINTS

This autumn winter is all about letting your wild side run loose with animal prints. This trend is more than just your standard leopard print skirt. We are seeing a large influx of zebra and snake prints too. Don’t be afraid to go all out with this one and layer it into your look with different textures too. If you’re a bit afraid of a full-blown printed piece, opt for accessories like printed scarves or a clutch! See my shopping edit below!

Style Tip

Keep your look classic by pairing your animal print with a neutral like white, black or even earth tones. Letting that one print take centre stage will make your outfit effortlessly chic.

70’S STYLE NEUTRALS

Black and white are staples in our wardrobes but this season’s neutrals are reminiscent of the 70’s. Think beautiful browns, caramel tones and deep berries. All these earthy shades suit almost every skin tone and you can create a beautiful outfit by combining all these colours with your simple basics. That’s when you know a trend is eternally classic!

I’ve linked to some beautiful pieces below, including a few textured pieces in another trending material for the season, corduroy.

PLAID HERITAGE PRINTS

There are some trends that we see year after year come autumn winter and plaid is one of them. So much so, that I’m not sure why we even call it a trend anymore! Plaid and tartan are back as heritage prints this season, with a bold update. We are seeing more than just your usual black and white skirt this year. Look for colourful variations of this classic as well as trousers and jackets.

I have to admit that this is one of my favourite patterns for the season, a girl can never have enough plaid in her wardrobe! Trust me on that one, especially when you’re shopping my edit here.

Whether you are feeling a little wild for animal prints or nostalgic for 70’s corduroy, this season promises trends that are sure to look chic.

COWBOY BOOTS

The cowgirl look is back and I could never have imagined a more high fashion update than the one it’s gotten this season. I’ve been spotting cowboy boots all over the runway, Instagram and the street style scene. There is no ignoring this amazing trend and it’s also one that I’ve invested in myself. I love my cowboy boots so much that I’ve worn them almost every day. Get ready to be seeing them all over my outfits over the next few months!

STATEMENT JUMPERS

If you thought statement jumpers were just a fad on Instagram, you’ll be happy to learn that they are continuing on this season, stronger than ever. With more and more designer brands opting in for statement slogan sweaters, this is becoming a way to not only express your fashion sense but your personality too. I’ve always been a huge fan of this, as we’ve seen through my love for slogan t shirts!

Style Tip

Think about the colours you choose to create an outfit around a slogan sweater. Is the sweater a bold colour? Pair with a neutral. Does it have a touch of colour? See how else you can work in that colour/shade into your outfit!

SCARF PRINTS

Something about this trend is so “The Crown” to me. Does anyone else get that vibe? Either way, channel your favourite royal and opt for lots of scarf prints this season. We’ve already seen Zara pounce on this trend with this amazing skirt, which I am sure is going to be all over the street style scene this fashion month.

Style Tip
I know that a trend like this can seem intimidating, so ease into it by adding a printed scarf to your outfit. Try tying the scarf around your plain turtleneck for a burst of colour and fun. I actually did exactly that right here.

THE 80’S WOMAN

Here’s your time to let your inner Madonna come out! Think black and white, power shoulders and full-on girl boss. Let your party dresses run on the shorter side and don’t shy away from those shoulder pads in your blazer. Add a super sleek hat for that extra touch. I particularly loved the silhouette created by Saint Laurent this season, with the slouchy shirts tucked into the leather trousers, very powerful. Don’t forget the Marc Jacob’s ode to the 80’s either!

Essentially, this trend is all about being the girl boss you know you are.
