As the social calendar fills and the weather grows more unpredictable, staying stylish can feel like a challenge. However, the fashion team at YOU Magazine has curated a wishlist of desirable items, all priced under £50, to help navigate seasonal wardrobe decisions.
Sophie Dearden-Howell, Fashion Director, is looking ahead to festive parties with a versatile cowl neck bodysuit from Very's collection with Michelle Keegan. Priced at £30, she notes its dramatic style makes it appear more expensive and appreciates its practicality as a bodysuit that stays in place. Dearden-Howell also has her eye on M&S Faux Fur Clogs, priced at £45, for cozy home wear that still feels put-together.
Jessica Carroll, Junior Style Editor, emphasizes the impact of accessories, recommending Pairs Bamboo Socks in a pastel blue for £8.40 as a way to elevate a denim look. For colder days spent indoors, she plans to wear a Chelsea Peers 100% organic cotton pyjama set, costing £48. Carroll also addresses winter skin concerns with a recommendation for the Refy Concealer, priced at £22, which she found to be a weightless alternative to her usual product. Additionally, she suggests the Original Duckhead Mini Umbrella for £35, highlighting its durability and unique duck-shaped handle as a practical yet stylish choice.
Hannah Skelley, Fashion Editor, points to the zebra print midi skirt from Pull & Bear, priced at £29.99, as a key trend for the season, envisioning it styled with knee-high boots and knitwear for the office or with slingbacks for evening wear. For home comfort, she recommends the Habitat Ceramic Lamp for £46, noting its contribution to creating a cozy atmosphere.
