6 Ways to Layer Your Clothes This Autumn
Well, it’s official, autumn has arrived and we couldn’t be more excited for crisp orange leaves, hot chocolates, and the return of boots to our casualwear rotation. We all know that autumn weather can be a little bit unpredictable here in the UK, and that’s why layers are your new best friend this season.
Here, we’ll show you how to layer your outfits, so you can stay looking stylish and feeling fabulous – whatever the weather.
Wear a polo neck under a jumper/hoodie
If you feel that your tired old jumper is a little bit lacking, breathe some new life into it by layering it with a polo neck. Polo neck tops are always a win in our eyes, but pop it on under a chunky jumper, and accessorise with a disc necklace, and you’ve got yourself a Vogue-worthy look that will keep off the chill.
Top Tip: exude some street style by replacing your jumper with an oversized hoodie, like this Disney hoodie.
Polo Neck £11.99
Bell Sleeve Jumper £27.99
Mickey Mouse Hoodie £29.99
Wear a jumper over a dress
Don’t want to pack away that dress for another season? Layer it with a jumper, and you can stay wearing it well into autumn. Chunky knits look super-retro over a dress, so you can exude some relaxed, cool-girl vibes and stay warm at the same time. Team with tights and a pair of knee-high boots to get the look just right.
Patchwork Jumper £29.99
Cord Dress £29.99
Black Boots £34.99
Wear a thin cardigan under a jacket
Thin cardigans are a godsend during the transitional seasons. Throw one on under your normal autumn jacket to add an extra layer of warmth. It’s also a great trick for adding an unexpected splash of colour to your outfit.

Blue Cardigan £12.99
Pink Cardigan £27.99
Wear a shirt under a smart dress
For a chic office look, layer a shirt under a smart dress. Team with tights and a pair of loafers for an elegant, Paris-esque ensemble that works just as well for 9 am as 9 pm. Want to shake up this look? Swap the brogues for a pair of Chelsea boots, and finish with a layered necklace for an easy smart-casual weekend look.

Accessorise with a chunky scarf

A chunky scarf is an autumn-winter essential – it keeps you warm and can double up as a sofa blanket – but choose the right one, and it can be the perfect finishing touch to any outfit. Why not use your scarf to add a pop of colour to your outerwear? A classic colourful striped scarf always looks super-cute!
Team biker boots with skinny jeans
