We've all felt it over the last week or so. The winter chill has begun to creep into the air. It's time to grab a pumkin spiced something, put your winter coat into the dry cleaners and pop your pedicure away until AT LEAST June.
The key to the perfect Autumn/Winter capsule wardrobe is having those few key pieces that will dress up or dress down any outfit. Black is no longer #Basic. It's the perfect hue for adding to this season's bold prints and statement make up to finish off your look in the classiest of ways.
We're all about the LBD, but have you heard of the LBS? Clarks are introducing The Black Edit Collection this season, bringing us The Little Black Dress in shoe form.
Their collection of premium leather shoes are luxurious and expertly crafted, making them the perfect companion to sleek workwear, or chic out-out looks.
We've picked out our favourites for you...
The patent black stiletto is the perfect day-to-night shoe. Pair it with tailoring for your work-day look, and then whip off your blazer to reveal a silky cami, add a statement necklace and you're ready for date night. Plus, the Cushion PlusTM technology and heel padding make the 8.5cm heel oh-so-bearable.
If you're planning on investing in just one pair of shoes this season make it a block heeled court shoe. The chunky heel was a street-style favourite in Spring/Summer and it's showing no signs of going away. Pair these patent ones with a tartan a-line mini and blouse for work, and then with your skinnies for cocktails with the girls at the weekend.
Ah, the humble shoe boot. It's been our friend for many, many years. Somehow easier to walk in than a conventional stiletto, it's become the wearable wardrobe staple that we reach for year after year. Perfect with skinny jeans, this pair boasts a breathable leather sock and discreet padding to ensure you can keep them on all day long. Swap your blazer for a leather jacket, and you've got a grunge look for your after-work-drinks.
