I'm an Editor Who's Hard to Impress—9 New, Deeply Elegant Pieces That Get a Yes From Me

When two of your favourite brands collaborate, you know you're going to like the outcome, but Barbour and Ganni's latest collection surpasses even my lofty expectations. In the designs you'll see all the hallmarks that you love from the heritage brand—think corduroy collars, popper-button fastenings and that iconic Barbour wax finish—combined with interesting updates, such as contrasting patch pockets and that unmistakeable flash of green embroidery. This jacket is my favourite piece from the collection, but I'm also tempted by this scarf.

These give a good impression of the Miu Miu shoes I've had my eye on for months.

And the award for the best cardigan of 2024 definitely needs to go to Stella McCartney. Between the flared sleeves, thick ribbed knit and gold buttons, I have no notes on how it could be improved upon.

Skirt suits were big on the LFW runways for autumn/winter 2024—I'm planning on being months ahead of the trend with Mango's version.

I already get so much wear out of the pleated miniskirt I already own, so I know this will be a wise wardrobe investment.

I haven't been able to stop thinking about this gorgeous shoulder bag since I saw it at the Celine press day.

Zara constantly delivers on the affordable shoe front—this pair is next on my list.

I've wanted to invest in a piece from Lié Studio for so long. It has to be this Instagram-famous necklace.

I'm not just an F1 girlie, I'm a McLaren girlie (go Norris!) and I audibly gasped when I saw Reiss's partnership with the brand. Finally merch that doesn't scrimp on style but actually looks chicer than 90% of my wardrobe. This bomber will be mine.
