What to invest in for Autumn Winter

When it comes to Autumn/Winter I always like to invest in a few more expensive pieces, you know, items that will really see you through those cold (but yet snuggly!) months. I like to think really carefully about the items that I choose to invest in as I really want them to be timeless and classic that can be worn year after year and with a number of styles. I've popped a link to my 5 Key Essentials video below on my Youtube channel (btw it's new - I'D LOVE YOU forever and ever if you subscribe).

Anyway, let's get to it...

A wool coat

The one in these pictures certainly isn't 100% wool but the one in my video is. When selecting a coat to invest in think careful about the colour and style. For me, classic black, grey or camel are true timeless pieces and I'd happily spend more than £250 upwards on one that I know will last me 10 years (and some have, believe me!).

A good pair of boots

For me, black boots have been a bit of an obsession since I was a teenager eagerly getting up early for the Next VIP sale with Mum and getting a pair every year! These days I venture out a bit - although I still really rate Next footwear -  to the likes of Stuart Weitzman, Aquatalia or Zara when I want something a little more statement. For this year's statement boots I got some over the knee beauties from River Island for only £75!

A cashmere knit

You only really need one or two really good cashmere jumpers as if you look after them they will look after you. I invested in a grey one this year but am still on the hunt for the perfect black roll neck (M&S and John Lewis do great affordable versions).
