Autumn Capsule Wardrobe Must-Haves For 2024

As the leaves start to change and the air becomes crisp, it's time to transition our wardrobes from the light and breezy outfits of summer to the cozy and chic ensembles of autumn. Creating an autumn capsule wardrobe can help streamline your closet including all the staple pieces you need to make getting dressed a breeze!

But, of course, keeping on top of trends is important, too, so not only have we pulled together a list of the essentials that will never go out of style but we have also included a few items to keep you on trend in 2024.

Outerwear and Knitwear

When it comes to creating a well-rounded autumn capsule wardrobe, outerwear plays a key role in not only keeping you warm but also adding an extra layer of style to your outfits. In the transition from summer to winter, you can't go wrong with some knitwear (think cropped cardigans and oversized slouchy jumpers) and some functional jackets like a statement leather biker or bomber style. Blazers are an essential wardrobe staple for the fall season, too, offering a touch of sophistication, even paired over a jumper and jeans. It's also the perfect time to for a sophisticated trench coat, offering length and warmth to see you through the season.

Knitwear

Bottoms

A well-fitting pair of jeans is a year-round essential, but for autumn, consider adding a pair in a darker wash or a trendy straight-leg silhouette to your wardrobe. Tailored trousers are another great addition to your autumn rotation, offering structure to your outfit; these aren't just great for office environments but also for pairing with a chunky knit and pair of heeled shoes. A midi skirt is another versatile piece that can be dressed up or down this fall, especially in a satin material for a touch of glam!

Tops

Stock up on long-sleeved tops in different styles and fabrics, from lightweight knits to ribbed roll-necks. These versatile pieces are perfect for layering under jumpers, blazers, or dresses as the weather cools. Tie front tops with statement sleeves are another versatile staples for this year's fall wardrobes, offering a blend of style and functionality. For your autumn capsule picks, think warm colours, animal print, and layering!

Footwear

With the changing weather as autumn sets in, it's time to revamp our shoe collection. Slingback heels and chunky boots are perfect for the transitioning season, offering both style and comfort. Ballet flats are making a notable comeback this fall, thanks to their versatility and reimagined designs. Autumn also brings the rise in platform styles (get our pun?), with the famous dupe suede boots and platform trainers becoming a big trend - ideal for stepping on crunchy leaves!

Accessories

It goes without saying that a chunky knitted scarf and hat won't come in wrong as we move into cooler months - especially in the UK! But other accessories you should consider adding to your capsule wardrobe are items like a pair of statement tortoiseshell sunglasses, an over-the-shoulder leather bag (in a gorgeous dark red hue and don't forget the bag charms), as well as some chunky gold jewellery. Autumn is all about deep, rich colours, after all!
