There are hundreds of thousands of influencers in the social ether, but only a handful we religiously follow because their style is just so on point. Our primary target is Monikh Dale—the London-based styling and shopping guru who tracks down the coolest buys from every corner of the retail world. Full of inspiring tips on rewearing investment items and finding the best high-street pieces, her Instagram feed and website are a veritable hotbed of things you’re going to want to purchase immediately (and will never regret). Each month, Monikh will share her new picks here, exclusively for you.
September is that perfect time of year when you can effortlessly pair a leather layer or cosy knit with your favourite flip-flops. It’s my favourite month precisely because it offers the best trans-seasonal dressing opportunities, allowing you to extend the life of your summer staples into cooler days. The changing weather provides endless ways to experiment with layering and styling, blending the warmth of autumn with the laid-back vibe of summer. This is the season your wardrobe truly shines as you mix and match the best of both.
To help you make the most of the year's greatest fashion transition, I've curated a list of this month's must-have shopping selects—pieces that perfectly balance practicality with style, ensuring you're ready for whatever September has in store. Whether it's the perfect light coat, a versatile knit or those sturdier sandals you'll wear right up until the first frost, these picks are essential for navigating the switch-up.
See My Picks of the Month:
I’m all about button-downs at the moment—they're the perfect layering pieces.
Brittany Bathgate wore this the other day, and I swore it was The Row.
Animal print is back.
Trench-coat season is coming.
A nice way to do double denim.
A little injection of colour. Wear these with a long black coat and trainers when the weather's a little grey.
Go up a size or two and team this with sweats.
Such a chic colour.
I'd wear this with a simple pair of straight-leg trousers and flip-flops.
It's time to add some burgundy to our wardrobes.
A great way to try the trouser/skirt hybrid.
Another piece giving The Row energy.
Yes, it’s a trend, but it's a good one.
I saw this a few weeks ago and stalked the site daily until it came into stock.
The perfect addition to a monochrome look.
See My Shopping Picks From Previous Months:
A really simple top that can be the base of any look.
An elegant addition to your wardrobe.
The silk skirt has become a recent staple for me and is an easy day to night piece.
The colour of the season.
The pyjama-bottom trend has me hooked.
A pair of dressy flats are key for my summer-evening wardrobe.
My second collection for Daphine is here and I’m so obsessed. Each stone is handmade in India and named after the strong women in my family.
Because we live in the UK, a jacket is always necessary.
How delicate and beautiful is this? Even when paired with jeans and a tee.
My obsession with beads has reached new heights. I just bought one of these precious stone necklaces and haven’t taken it off since.
Moving on from Gazelles? Try this slightly rounder style.
Perfect if you're prepping your transitional wardrobe.
Just the right amount of sweetness.
Now this is a chic coat.
