I have spent the past four months in cut off jeans and two summer dresses but yesterday's cold weather made me realise I need some new clothes for autumn/winter.

I know nothing about clothes/fashion and tend to just get my cues from what I see others wearing. I'd love to know what everyone else is getting.

I'm 50, FWIW, and work in a fairly casual office and need clothes for both work and home as for various reasons I didn't have anything new last year.

Please inspire me with what you're buying!

Ah thank you @Waystation, I got the email too, got all excited but guess what, that Shacket isn't included 😂 I think these clothes are priced to be reduced now, but I suppose that's another thread entirely.

@Rina66 it's discounted now

Thank you @excelledyourself for thinking of me, it got delivered yesterday, it was reduced to £135 on ASOS and then they had 20% off, so I paid £108 instead of £169 - it just goes to show though that lots of these stores are definitely pricing high so they can do discounts.

I love it but it comes up big, I ordered the Large which stated a 14, I should have got the Medium 🙄

I'll be wearing pretty much what I wore last year.
Maybe buy a couple of soft polonecks to hide the sag.

I've bought these chelsea boots from Grenson and a black wool cape from Zara.

If I'm going to be doing "gothic hunting lodge" as someone else on here described it a la Claudia Winkleman I'll need some kind of skinny fit trousers/leggings. I also want to sell a couple of fairisle jumpers I'm sick of and buy some more.

Those boots are gorgeous, and currently in the sale! But not in my size 😭

I've been loving my White Company white boyfriend jeans but they are really quite grubby now and also I don't want white for winter. So thinking I may look at the White Company for inspo.

I also had a look at Baukjen's new in stuff but it all looked a bit boring.

If the jeans are comfy but too grubby to wear for another summer, dye it black (or another wintry colour), gives you a few more months of use.
