The investment version: richer fabrics, classic Ralph Lauren-style prep and pieces designed to stay in the wardrobe for years.

Styling tip: when everything is classic, add one relaxed element — here, the baseball cap stops it feeling too polished.

#LTKuk #LTKeurope #LTKautumn

Probably my favourite balance of the three. Classic pieces, good proportions and slightly stronger accessories without becoming too precious.

Styling tip: an oversized shirt cuff or collar showing under the knit makes this kind of simple outfit feel much more styled.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

The same preppy autumn formula at the lowest price point: dark denim, navy, stripes, trench and loafers.

Styling tip: keep the denim dark and the accessories warm brown — that contrast is what makes inexpensive basics feel more considered.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

The Chocolate Stripe 🤎

White denim with chocolate stripes and suede feels perfect for this point in September — still light, but definitely autumn.

Styling tip: when carrying white jeans into the new season, surround them with richer textures such as suede, leather and knitwear rather than simply adding darker colours.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKjeans

Denim & Suede 🤎

Blue denim, cream trousers and chocolate suede is such an easy early-autumn mix. I love the contrast between the cooler denim and all the warm brown accessories.

Styling tip: repeat the brown in two or three smaller places — belt, shoes, bag — so the jacket feels connected to the rest of the outfit.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKjeans

The luxury version of the same formula. Clean lines, rich tones and beautiful accessories make this one feel especially refined.
Styling tip: when your outfit is simple, let texture and shape do the work.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKjeans

This one feels a little more relaxed but still pulled together. I love the cream denim with the striped shirt and burgundy accessories.
Styling tip: adding one deep accent colour like burgundy instantly makes a neutral outfit feel more autumnal.

#LTKuk #LTKjeans #LTKautumn

A really chic autumn formula on a more affordable budget. The striped shirt, burgundy knit and navy trench feel polished but still easy to wear.
Styling tip: keep the colour palette tight — navy, cream and burgundy always look elevated together.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKjeans

Chocolate, Tailored 🤎

A tonal brown look with tailored checked shorts, a fine knit, tall boots and a soft belted jacket.

Styling tip: shorts work beautifully into autumn when the boot comes high enough to reduce the amount of bare leg. Keeping everything tonal makes the proportions feel much more intentional.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

Same formula, more elevated finish. The richer textures and cleaner accessories make it feel especially refined.

Styling tip: stick to one tight colour story — cream, chocolate and soft blue always look expensive together.

#LTKuk #LTKeurope #LTKautumn

A polished off-duty look that still feels relaxed. The oversized tote and half-zip keep it practical, while the striped shirt sharpens everything up.

Styling tip: roll the shirt cuffs out from under the knit for a more styled finish.

#LTKuk #LTKeurope #LTKautumn

Easy sporty luxe on a budget. I love the mix of a striped shirt, chocolate half-zip and cream denim.

Styling tip: keep the base neutral, then let the brown tones do the work.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

Brown Over Blue 🤎

Chocolate tailoring with blue denim is such an easy September combination. I love the mix of a relaxed blazer with a finer knit and pointed suede boot.

Styling tip: don’t try to match every brown. Mixing chocolate, espresso and slightly warmer tones gives the outfit much more depth.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

Sporty city chic done right.

Activewear as the base, then layered with a trench, striped rugby top and red cap for a more elevated off-duty feel.

Styling tip: when the base is very simple, add one structured outerwear piece and one polished accessory to make the whole look feel intentional.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

Plaid & Suede 🤎

A checked midi with a cropped suede jacket, chocolate knit, long leather gloves and pointed knee boots. I love the mix of softer heritage textures with a much sharper shoe.

Styling tip: when wearing a midi skirt with a short jacket, keep the boot sleek and pointed — it elongates the lower half and balances the volume of the skirt.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKluxury

Same blazer-and-denim base, but with a darker argyle knit and burgundy bag.

Styling tip: burgundy works beautifully with charcoal because it adds colour without breaking the deeper autumn palette.

#LTKuk #LTKeurope #LTKautumn

Grey tailoring, dark denim and argyle with olive suede and chocolate accessories.

Styling tip: treat argyle as the statement piece and keep everything around it slightly muted. It makes the pattern feel much more modern.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKjeans

The investment version. Better materials and more refined accessories, but fundamentally the same styling formula.

Styling tip: when everything is one colour, pay more attention to shape than decoration. A fitted top against a fluid skirt gives the look its balance.

#LTKautumn #LTKuk #LTKeurope

Same idea, but with stronger leather, cleaner accessories and a slightly sharper finish.

Styling tip: an all-black outfit needs different finishes. Matte knit + smooth leather + gold jewellery gives the colour depth.

#LTKautumn #LTKuk #LTKeurope

The affordable version of the formula: fitted black knit, leather-look midi, flat shoe and structured bag. I actually think the silhouette works really well here.

Styling tip: with an A-line midi, keep the shoe slim and close to the foot so the lower half doesn’t feel too heavy.

#LTKautumn #LTKuk #LTKeurope

Suede Weather 🤎

Cream trousers and a simple top with tobacco suede is such a good way to move lighter summer pieces into September.

Styling tip: keep the base tonal, then repeat the warm brown once or twice through the belt, bag or shoes so the jacket doesn’t feel disconnected.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

Gingham & Chocolate 🤎

A checked shirt, chocolate denim, dark brown flats and a suede bag, with a crisp white layer underneath to break everything up.

Styling tip: when you’re wearing a lot of one deep colour, let a little white show at the collar or cuffs. It gives the whole outfit more definition.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

Such a strong autumn formula: denim shirt, straight-leg jeans, a belted brown coat, and rich chocolate accessories.
Styling tip: mixing blue denim with deep brown tones makes casual pieces feel instantly more polished.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKjeans

Early autumn formula I love: checked blazer, denim shirt, relaxed jeans, black loafers and a red knit for contrast.
Styling tip: if your base is simple, add one richer colour accent to make the whole look feel intentional.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

The investment version of the same formula, with a suede trench that gives the whole look a richer finish. Timeless and chic without trying too hard.
Styling tip: mixing light denim with warm camel tones makes autumn outfits look instantly more expensive.

#LTKautumn #LTKuk #LTKeurope

This version feels a little softer and more elevated with the sculpted trench and curved bag. It’s still minimal, but a bit more fashion-forward.
Styling tip: when the outfit is simple, let the coat shape and bag do the work.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

A really easy autumn formula: white shirt, straight jeans and a camel trench. Clean, polished and very wearable for day-to-day city dressing.
Styling tip: keep the shirt slightly relaxed and add a pointed boot to sharpen the whole silhouette.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

A really easy autumn formula built around navy and soft sand tones. The long coat, loafers and structured bag keep it polished, while the scarf adds just enough interest.
Styling tip: when an outfit is quite neutral, add one small accessory detail like a neck scarf to make it feel more finished.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

Olive leather and burgundy is such a strong autumn combination. Adding a pale blue shirt keeps the whole look fresh and a little less predictable.
Styling tip: mix one crisp piece, like a shirt, with richer autumn textures to make the outfit feel more elevated.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

City Blues, Red Shoes ❤️

One pair of turn-up jeans styled two ways: checked shirt for something relaxed, or a white shirt and black blazer for a sharper city look.

Styling tip: a deep denim cuff works best when the shoe has a clean, pointed shape. It keeps the proportion from feeling heavy.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKjeans

The Red Thread ❤️

I love the contrast of bright red underneath deep burgundy here. Pale denim keeps it relaxed, while the scarf, structured black bag and white lace-ups make it feel much more finished.

Styling tip: let your underlayer show at both the neckline and cuffs. Repeating the colour in two places makes it look intentional rather than accidental.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKjeans

The Brown Theory 🤎
I love mixing different shades of brown rather than trying to match everything perfectly. Chocolate knit, tobacco trousers and a deep brown coat feel much richer together, especially with navy breaking up the palette.

Styling tip: use one cooler colour — navy works perfectly — when a tonal brown outfit starts to feel too warm or too flat.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKeurope

Chocolate Season 🤎

Chocolate brown with pale blue might be one of my favourite combinations for early autumn. I love the contrast of the crisp shirt against all those soft brown textures — wool, denim and suede.

Styling tip: when you’re wearing several pieces from the same colour family, change the textures rather than adding more colours. It gives a tonal outfit much more depth.

#LTKuk #LTKautumn #LTKFashionMonth

The Autumn Formula | Look 2

Same formula, completely different mood.

Chocolate knit + camel midi skirt + burgundy leather jacket + knee-high boots, finished with a croc-effect clutch.

I especially love the mix of chocolate and burgundy here. They’re close enough tonally to feel sophisticated, while the camel breaks up the darker shades.

Styling tip: When mixing several rich autumn colours, repeat at least one shade through your accessories. Here, the burgundy jacket, boots and bag create a visual thread through the entire outfit.

#LTKFashionMonth #LTKautumn #LTKuk

The Autumn Formula | Look 1

This is such an easy formula to recreate: a camel knit, pleated midi skirt, burgundy leather jacket and pointed knee-high boots.

The lighter knit softens the deeper burgundy leather, while the neutral skirt keeps the whole look incredibly wearable. I love the tonal accessories here rather than introducing another colour.

Styling tip: Let the knit cuffs show underneath the leather jacket. That small bit of layering makes the outfit feel much more considered and ties the camel skirt and knit together.

A formula I’ll definitely be borrowing for my own autumn wardrobe.
