The September weather has definitely arrived so it’s time we spruced up our wardrobes ready for the cooler weeks ahead! Here are a couple of must haves for updating your look so you can head into autumn in perfect style!

Cardigans

A good cardigan is an absolute must have for those wet and windy days! A cardi is one of the easiest ways to update your wardrobe without splashing out - just pick a couple of different styles in neutral colours and you’ll be ready for anything. We love longline cardigans with slim leg jeans and tailored cardigans that’ll show off your shape.

Boots

There’s nothing better than a good pair of boots when it’s cold and wet outside. They’re the only failsafe way to keep your feet dry and they look fantastic with everything from skirts or dresses and tights to tunic tops and slim leg jeans. Of course here at Marisota we’ve got perfect styles no matter what size or style you’re looking for. We know how hard it is to find boots that fit perfectly so we have wide fitting boots designed for both wider feet and calves, so there’s no pinching here!

• If you’re heading off on a summer break, then thoughts of what to take and “how is it all going to fit?” won’t be too far away! We think we’ve got packing for our hols down to a tee, so here are a few space saving holiday tips from the girls in the Marisota office!
• Multipurpose - don’t think in terms of whole outfits. Each item in your suitcase should be able to make at least 3 different looks! Think Kaftans that work with shorts by day and trousers by night, simple vest tops and neutral shrugs.  Value packs are a great idea as they save space and they’re budget friendly!

• Shoes - a tricky area, again don’t think in terms of single outfits. Take an all purpose high heel, a wedge, some sandals and some comfortable shoes for sightseeing. Stick to neutral colours so you can wear them with all sorts of outfits and you’re on to a winner.
• Minimise the toiletries - unless you really need it leave it behind. It’s well worth investing in some mini toiletries or mini pots that you can’t decant yours into. Must haves include shampoo, a good conditioner (the sun/ sea/ swimming can really dry out your hair!), face wash, moisturiser, body wash, sun cream and aftersun. Check in advance whether your accommodation already has a hairdryer/ iron in the room - a major space saver! Try not to take too much make up - that sun-kissed glow is a perfect starting point!
• Colours - Try and create a capsule colour palette for your break, choosing 3 or 4 brighter colours and mixing them with neutrals. This way your accessories will go much further!
• The maxi dress - this season’s maxi style is an absolute must! It’s the ultimate space saver, just wear with sandals over your swimsuit for a trip to the beach, add wedges and a necklace for a stylish daytime look or switch to heels and a shrug for an evening style that’s chic and on trend.
