My obsession with summer's plainer, darker maxi dresses is bleeding nicely into the new season; they're grungy, flattering, and easy to wear - huzzah! The big question, though, is how to make them weather-appropriate now that the leaves are falling. My personal approach is to add woolen tights and worker boots down below, and - crucially - a cropped jumper up top. This handy little piece works for a number of reasons: it adds an element of comforting coziness; the knit creates textural interest when layered against the jersey; and the shorter shape lends a sense of playfulness to the proportions. Finish the look with a cropped denim jacket, some wrist-warmers, and a couple of pendants or longer-length necklaces.
Here are some of my favorite offerings from the British high street:
