When she was J.Crew’s resident style icon, Jenna Lyons famously said ‘leopard is a neutral’. The deep tones of this particular print and the classic cut make this coat doubly sophisticated.

I love headbands, but sometimes find them a little overwhelming. This gold style, however, tones in perfectly with my hair and adds a subtle polish to any outfit.

I’ve made a real return to red lipstick this winter, as it’s such an easy, instant way to elevate an outfit. I love this incredibly matte Hourglass liquid lipstick in a deep shade of red.

On those mornings when your brain doesn’t quite want to click into gear, reach for this COS dress. Effortless and versatile, I’ll be wearing mine with boots or trainers.

While I’m never going to pack away my leather leggings, these high-waisted trousers look super flattering with everything, from an oversized turtleneck to a silk camisole. A true desk-to-dance-floor staple. 

If you haven’t already seen me with this Aurora London bag, where have you been? In all seriousness, I’ve been using it non-stop, because it’s a great size, the perfect shade of burnt tan, and works perfectly from day to night. 

The chunky cardigan is a real connector piece, bridging that gap between a light jumper and more cumbersome coat. 

These Stuart Weitzman boots are my new obsession. I love how the pearls give a hint of femininity, juxtaposing with the masculine utility of the boot shape.

At first it was Aname’s letter rings I fell hard for, but this season it’s the new numeric styles that are adorning my fingers. I chose the dates of my children’s birthdays, which makes them all the more special.

A printed silk crepe dress is one of my winter essentials. Add a fine knit layer for daytime, then wear with a tailored coat for evening – the moody floral print on this Rixo one is timeless, you just can’t go wrong.
