“I rarely deviate from the staples, but I like to have a refresh to keep my wardrobe interesting. This longline coat, for example, is a style I love, and the camel shade will go with so much of what I already own. Elsewhere, a simple belt will always come in handy, as will a good pair of tailored trousers.”

“If you work in a slightly more casual office environment, then denim jumpsuits are a failsafe option at this time of year. While they can be worn quite casually, I like to style mine up with loafers. Tailored dad-style trousers are another staple in my wardrobe and these pink ones from Raey are an easy way to inject some colour. Finally, finding the right work bag isn't easy, but I think I’ve nailed it with this one from Dragon Diffusion.”

“At this time of year, my workwear essentials include a lot of great knitwear, and my favourite brand for investment pieces is Soft Goat; I wear the boyfriend turtleneck on repeat. I also think that a slip skirt is such a versatile piece. For bags, check out DeMellier; I love its understated designs.”

“For me, workwear is all about elevated basics that form a solid capsule wardrobe. Strong silhouettes and luxe fabrics make dressing for the office effortless. This amazing leather skirt from Iris & Ink at THE OUTNET will work with all my new-season knitwear and this cream wool Massimo Dutti coat will add a luxe finish.”

“I’m leaning more into grey and other neutrals this year to keep my winter workwear feeling chic but light. ARKET is does such good chunky knits and this cream one will work with tailored trousers, jeans and skirts. Finally, a good pair of heeled boots is a no-brainer and these ones are affordable and cool.”
