Summer holidays are over, an autumn chill is in the air and the faint sound of leaves crunching underfoot echoes in the near distance... It’s official, it’s time for a new season look.
We’re here to make sure you’ve got everything you need.
There are plenty of AW20 runway trends to get you excited about rebooting your wardrobe.
Power dressing was big news on the runways and there are loads of fun ways to tap into the trend. Shop wide-leg tuxedo trousers, shoulder-detail blouses, oversized lapels, boxy blazers and maybe even a slight shoulder pad or two...
Brave a statement two piece, or mix and match separates that can cycle through your wardrobe all season long (choose a belted blazer for extra fashion points!).
Men’s AW20 is all about checks, checks and more checks. From houndstooth to tartan, we want to see ‘em on blazers, shirts, trousers, coats... or all of the above.
The humble corduroy makes a play for chinos’ position as the go-to trousers, pair with a wear-with-anything classic cotton shirt from GANT (pictured top) for a perfect smart casual look!
Complete your wardrobe with a smart carryall like this sleek and sturdy laptop backpack from Samsonite (pictured), one of the premium luggage brands carried by The Baggage Factory.
On top of great outlet prices all day every day at The Galleria, you can find even more savings in stores, with ongoing sales and special offers...
For instance, right now you can find an extra 50% off selected lines at M&S Outlet (pictured L) and NHS workers can scoop a fabulous 10% extra off in GANT – view current offers.
When it comes to suits, you’re totally spoiled for choice at The Galleria, with dedicated tailoring brands including Moss Bros, M&S and Suit Direct (pictured L to R), as well as Stag London and Jaweed Popal's made-to-measure suits.
Right now at Moss Bros, you can get a suit, plus two shirts and extra trousers for £149 with their amazing-value suit bundles!
Nothing spells the beginning of autumn like the promise of a new winter coat. It’s the one item you’re going to wear every day, so it’s important to choose one that makes you look and feel amazing!
Leather and shearling are the statement coats of the season, while classic designs like the overcoat, trench, pea and belted wraparounds never go out of style and make a timeless addition to your wardrobe.
For high-quality, classic coats with unbeatable value, it has to be M&S Outlet (pictured top) – with up to an additional 50% off RRP currently in store.
For outdoorsy & practical but with a bit of fashion, you can find a range of technical outerwear at Trespass (pictured bottom), Mountain Warehouse and Regatta.
Though it might not be too chilly yet, it’s a good idea to shop ahead of time for scarfs, hats and gloves so you’re prepared for that first morning frost. Or if you’ve been itching to try the beret trend, now is the perfect time!
It’s time to ditch the unkempt, quarantine chic look many of us have been rocking the past few months, which means a trip to the barbers or hair salon for lots of us.
Whether you’re a BB cream babe or contour queen, the turn of the season is a great excuse to refresh your makeup collection. Swap bronzer for a rosy-cheeked blush and sweep autumnal hues like warm copper, chocolate and bronze across eyelids for a pared-back, office-ready smokey eye.
Pay a visit to Beauty Outlet for a range of high street favourites and luxury beauty brands at outlet prices (pictured).
Keep those newly-established lockdown beards looking their best with conditioning beard oil from The Body Shop, where you can also stock up on naturally-sourced bath and beauty goodies to help you unwind.
If you’ve been reaching for a lighter, citrus-based perfume or cologne through summer, it’s also time to embrace warmer, more complex fragrances like YSL's Black Opium (pictured). Explore woody cedar or tobacco-based scents, with notes of cinnamon, vanilla or patchouli at The Fragrance Shop – or talk to the team in store, who will be able to help find the perfect scent for you.
It’s the little things that make a big difference when it comes to acing your day and feeling good.
Take advantage of big savings on designer watches all year round at H Samuel Outlet (pictured).
And when it comes to keeping organised, mid-year diaries, as well as weekly planners, organisers and notebooks are available in all shapes and sizes at The Works and Waterstones.
