Autumn Layers

By Stylebyclairelopez

Jackets are key as we move into the autumn. So here are all my try ons - blazers to bouclé & suede

The barn jacket was a big trend last autumn and it’s still big this season.

If you missed out on the viral M&S one then this is a great option -even better because not only does it have a hood it’s also part of the puffertech range so is actually warm.

But hurry because the brown is already oos online and the navy is selling out too…

I have on a small as there were no xs in store but I usually wear an XXS - size 6.

The one item you need in your wardrobe this autumn/winter 🍂🍂

… a great coat

(And yes I know it’s not remotely cold yet but the good ones always sell out so if you have a coat shaped hole in your wardrobe then now is the time!)

Some tips on what to look for when buying yours, tips for petites as well as my favourite two styles 👌

If you saw my reel yesterday one of the jackets on it was an old Zara one and I had lots of comments asking me about it… but this one is super similar.
Wearing xs.
100% recycled polyester

The car coat is also similar to my old trench. This single breasted style is called a car coat and is a good option if you have a large bust as often traditional trenches are too stiff and have too much volume being double breasted plus too many details over the bust.

This one is also good if you’re petite as it’s neat fitting. Shorter length so good with summer trs and jeans but not so good for wide legged styles/skirts and dresses

Wearing xs in both

If you don’t have one of these then quite simply get one!!

They make your lighter weight jackets and coats work harder and for longer. Perfect for travel too.

Clever details to make it invisible and super warm. I’ve had mine for years

Wearing xs but going to buy XXS so it’s a neater fit under my shorter jacket.

Does also come in a sleeveless version too if you’d prefer. Also linked

If you’re after a suede jacket without the price tag then try these two at Zara. Wearing xs in both

The second one is bigger so I’d definitely recommend sizing down in it.

I stupidly got a medium in the grape one so it’s big on me but be aware of the dropped shoulder and how this changes your shoulder line.

I often recommend to clients to size down to mitigate against this.

The grey one is lovely too. Wearing xs in this.

All great casual/smart casual autumn options.

The two bombers in particular look more expensive than their price tag.

Here are some more options for you to consider if you’re after layers and outerwear to take you into the autumn.

The barn jacket was big last a/w and is still here. This one comes in 2 other colours and is a great practical casual jacket option for wearing with jeans. Wearing xs but would size down. I’ll also link the M&S one which is lined to a good option if you’re after something warmer.

The utility jacket has long been a staple in my wardrobe and this is a good one. Size down as it comes up big but the lyocell means it drapes beautifully so is a great one if you have a large bust. Wearing xs in this bit would size down to XXS

The hooded quilted jacket is water and wind resistant and is a lovely lightweight casual jacket that is ideal for now before you need a thicker, heavier puffa. Comes in lots of colours. Wearing xs in this bit would size down to XXS

And finally the gorgeous wool mix jacket. Love this colour but there are other options too. So much more expensive looking than its price tag. It is unlined so a good transitional piece. Size down. Wearing xs but would go XXS. A nice smart casual jacket to smarten up your jeans.

Suede jackets and indigo denim are key trends for the autumn season 🍁🍂

These short styles are perfect with wide legged bottoms and with dresses/skirts.

High waisted denim with flattering front seam detail.

Wearing xs in both jackets which would be good for 8 and possibly small 10

Wearing 34 in the jeans which are good for 6

Layers to take you into the autumn 🍂

Without wishing the summer away, now is the time to make sure you have the right layers to wear for the new season so here are several ideas of pieces I’ve tried on recently which will work for different occasions from blazers and bouclé for work to casual options with jeans.

Pieces that you can wear with skirts and dresses too.

And if you want to hear my commentary then head to my AW jackets collection I’ve created on LTK where there are styling tips, sizing info and more.

$Don’t hate me for showing coats in August but they’re starting to hit the shops and I don’t want you to miss out on the best ones!! So if you’re after a winter coat then definitely consider this one!! This is a best seller and it’s back. It’s Max Mara vibes at a fraction of the cost - luxe look, chic and sophisticated and in several colours including black. I really rate Mango’s coats for quality at this price point and buy this style amount others for my clients. But I would size down so you aren’t swamped. It’s generously sized and there is a balance between looking contemporary and drowned! My clients also size down in this style. Wearing xs here but would buy XXS which is only available online #LTKstyletip #LTKuk #LTKautumn$

My favourite suede jackets for autumn, layering, brown tones, suede, trending jacket, transitional style

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKstyletip

3 different lightweight rainwear ☔️ options to see you through all the summer showers

Wearing XS in all and I would size down to XXS which is available online as they are all relaxed styles.

All come in multiple colours too.

#LTKuk #LTKsummer #LTKeurope

Still keeping an eye on the coming season and blazers and bouclé jackets are key transitional pieces.

Great for work and smart casual alike with tailored trousers or denim.

Mango is always great at doing these at affordable prices.

Wearing xs in both. Would size down in the blazer to XXS

Now is the time to start thinking about jackets to layer over your outfits as the weather cools down… as they will have sold out by the time you need them!

Here are a few options -

Knitted cardi jacket
Casual jersey jacket
Denim jacket
Faux leather jacket with quilting

All great options to consider to take you into the autumn

Wearing xs in all. I’d size down in the Uniqlo ones to XXS which is only available online as these are all a relaxed boxy fit

A selection of new in bits at Zara that caught my eye last week

The suede jacket is a great transitional option. Wearing xs perfect with denim or over dresses/skirts

Lovely denim cropped wide leg jeans. Wearing 6

Gorgeous chocolate shirt dress. Perfect for work. Wearing xs. Good for 6

Transitional knit - also in cream. Great for work too. It’s a neat fit. Wearing small which is good for a size 6.

Chocolate co-ord. lots of outfitting options with this one. This is a relaxed fit and too but on me. Would be good 8:/10.

#LTKsummer #LTKworkwear #LTKautumn

Now is the time to buy your transitional jackets as by the time it’s cool enough to want one, they will have sold out!!

The cropped trench is still around and this chocolate one is gorgeous.

Does also come in a beige too.

Like the shoulder seam as so many have had dropped shoulders which adds a lot of width to there shoulder line - and that’s not always a good thing!

Wearing Xs
