Any advice for incorporating summer pieces into autumn outfits?

Partner socks and hosiery with strappy heels (the secret to keeping your summer footwear on high rotation). Also turtlenecks for layering—it's the coolest way to stay warm while still wearing your favourite summer dresses, layered over top.

The go-to staples everyone should have this season?

A great pair of ankle boots, a turtleneck sweater, a souped-up denim jacket and a printed midi skirt. Oh and a cool pair of tights (brands like Gucci, Fendi and Balenciaga have some super fun styles if you wanna splurge on a designer pair).

What is the biggest mistake people make when transitioning their style from one season to the next?

Spending up large on new season pieces when a lot of the summer styles in their wardrobe could easily be layered up and worn throughout the cooler months. Especially summer dresses and skirts which are so easy to layer!

How do you maintain personal style, while also trying out new, seasonal looks?

I don’t like to buy too many new pieces each season, so if I’m investing in a new trend it will only be one that is totally true to my own style. I have to know I’ll still wear it even when the season is over otherwise it’s a waste!
