When in doubt – wear stripes!
Capsule wardrobe & autumn look essential
Over the recent years there has been a growing appreciation for capsule pieces in neutral tones. This means that many of the Autumn buys are actually items that have been in fashion circle for decades, and so will have a permanent place in your wardrobe for many years to come.
Last year it was almost impossible to escape the striped jumper trend, as it was worn and styled by everyone becoming the jumper of the season thanks to its easy to wear, comfortable and chic design. With no doubt, Totême’s roll neck bestseller, adored by fashion circles had a contribution to this momentum, and inspired other brands to follow the trend.
The ultimate classic and transitional option is white jumper with black stripes (or the rother way round), and this is where you should start if you are a beginner to the striped trend. If you prefer designs with less colour contrast, choose beige / brown or khaki combination of colours.
When it comes to styling the jumper, there are plenty of ways to do it. Throw it on your shoulders styled with chunky loafers, white shirt and cropped leather trousers, or pair it with straight denim and comfy trainers such Adidas Gazelle.
Most of the high end and high street brands got their own version of striped jumper, making this one of the most popular buys for another season.

Happy shopping!
