ME+EM has made our dream pinstripe blazer

ME+EM has given its popular spring tulip print a moody autumn makeover – in fabulously festive velvet, naturally. It also comes as a shift dress, if you’re after a shorter hemline.

The LBD is a wardrobe staple for a reason, and this flattering midi style will take you everywhere from an important meeting to a black tie party. To quote Coco Chanel, “simplicity is the keynote of all true elegance” – she’d surely love this dress.

Stripes, glorious stripes – in two styles and one excellent investment! This boyfriend shirt is ideal for tucking into wide-leg trousers or a leather pencil skirt for an outfit that all the office will envy.

Florals are absolutely not just for spring/summer – simply look for styles on a darker base to give them an autumn/winter refresh. This is one of our favourite takes, which we’ll be pairing with tonal jumpers, accessories and knee-high boots.

Note: ME+EM often make different pieces in the same print, and this one’s no exception. If you love it, there’s a swing dress and blouse available too.

Is this the perfect blazer? It’s certainly in the running. Super versatile for dressing up (over a slip dress with heels) or down (with denim and trainers), its navy pinstripe design is ideal for layering over every colour in your wardrobe. See also the matching cargo trousers.

Knitted vests are trending this season, and we love how easy they are to throw over shirting for stylish warmth on colder days. ME+EM’s fine-knit offering comes in oatmeal or black, with intricate stitching allowing glimpses of your base layer to show through. Head this way for a sparkly iteration.

ME+EM releases a gorgeous new print each month, and fresh for November is the bright and beautiful ‘Waterlily’. Electric pink and pecan, grounded with black detailing and romanticised with the brand’s signature ruffled trims, make this blouse a dream for layering under knitted vests and blazers and tucking into wide-leg trousers.

The tuxedo jacket is the cool girl’s blazer of choice right now, and ME+EM has predictably made one of the most elegant options going. There’s an on-trend sleeveless style available too, and a tuxedo dress. Or go all the way and splurge on the full trouser suit.

This beautiful black velvet shift dress, with its gold buttons and tulle trims, is top of our fashion director Oonagh Brennan’s wish list this Christmas. “You can never have too many LBDs and this one has serious seasonal opulence,” she says. Look to ME+EM’s sequin shift dress, too.

Make a statement at a Christmas party in this metallic floral print maxi dress that’s guaranteed to turn heads. Simply add your go-to strappy black heels and clutch bag.

Slick tailoring is going nowhere this season, and our eye is firmly on these grey pinstripe beauties. Pair the wide-leg trousers with the matching waistcoat and blazer for enviable office style.

This gorgeous rose print jersey dress is as comfortable as it is stylish. We’ll be wearing ours under a leather jacket, blazer or cream roll-neck jumper.

Tip: Love this romantic print? It also comes as a shirt and maxi dress.

These embellished velvet Mary Janes are our dream Christmas flats. Sparkly yet classy, they also come in red, green and orange, but we’ll wear this classic black pair the most. See also the jewelled patent slingbacks.

This double-breasted blazer doubles as a coat, making it a real investment buy that you’ll never take off once the temperature drops. Simply add more knitwear layers on colder days.

Corduroy is always a cosy yet sophisticated must for autumn/winter. Case in point: this super versatile long-sleeved swing dress that we plan on living in all season. See also: the longer midi dress iteration.

Consider giving your loungewear an elevated update this season – you’ll be spending more time indoors, after all. We’ll be working from home and snuggling up on the sofa in these luxe teal joggers. There’s a matching top available too, or look to this metallic pair that could easily pass as eveningwear.

Florals for autumn/winter needn’t forgo colour, as this shirred midi dress proves. Bright and beautiful with its green and purple print, it features a detachable belt that could also be worn as a necktie. It also comes in a floatier maxi dress silhouette.
