Our mission at Who What Wear is really to take all the stress and admin out of shopping, saving you from trawling through hundreds of shopping sites, bringing you concise edits of the pieces that really stand above the rest. When it comes to the building blocks of your autumn wardrobe there are three stores we are impressed with the most right now—Mango, John Lewis and M&S. You can rely on them to deliver every day staples, which excel both in terms of quality and design flair. If you’re after the perfect pair of boots, a new jumper and an expensive-looking coat, we have a feeling you’ll find it in the 21 pieces below.
Stand out items include Erica Davies' boot collection for John Lewis which is designed to actually fit on the legs, and an amazing sunset-hued ombre jumper from M&S that our editors all love. As for Mango, it's the coats we're really impressed with right now— especially a black buttoned wool coat from its collaboration with Pernille Teisbaek. Keep scrolling to see the 21 autumn staples we love.
