We fashion editors are often asked about how to curate the perfect wardrobe, and the answer is often the same: versatility. In an ideal world, your wardrobe should include some timeless, premium pieces mixed in amongst more affordable trend-led items (extra points for any vintage and secondhand pieces you can rewear). This mix of brands and price points will help your clothing will reflect your personality, and above all else, dressing in a way that is true to you is what makes fashion fun.
That being said, I totally understand the appeal of building a capsule wardrobe from just one store. First of all, it's an effective use of your time. (No one wants to traipse around the shops or endlessly scroll through every new-in section.) And secondly, pieces from the same store tend to look seamlessly pulled together as we know all too well that a brand's honed aesthetic can make or break your chances of shopping success. One of the brands that we spend the most time looking at is ASOS. The site is a veritable treasure trove of new in pieces ranging from affordable takes on runway trends to everyday basics, so there's an overwhelming amount to sift through. That's where we step in.
With everything from versatile separates to could-be-designer accessories, ASOS's latest drop has the pieces you need to see out the cooler seasons in style. But don't just take my word for it—let me show you. Below, I've assembled five expensive-looking outfits entirely from ASOS that are guaranteed to work for every occasion in your social calendar. Keep scrolling to see and shop my very easy, pre-styled ASOS outfits.
WHAT TO WEAR FOR COFFEE WITH FRIENDS
When it comes to coats this season, the bigger, the better. Look for longline maxi coats with boxy tailoring.
We're ready to reach for knits, and as the temperatures drop, a cosy roll-neck is a great addition to any wardrobe.
Yes, you can still wear linen in autumn. We're swapping the linen shorts we wore all summer for this sophisticated skirt.
The perfect accessory to a tactile outfit of wool and linen is a glossy, patent boot.
You'd be forgiven for thinking that this minimalistic shoulder bag costs at least three times its high-street price tag.
WHAT TO WEAR ON DATE NIGHT
Let's be honest: Katie Holmes and Khaite singlehandedly changed the way we think about cardigans. The humble knit can be cool, especially when worn for evening.
We don't remember when the smooth slip silhouette was reintroduced after its '90s heyday, but slip skirts and dresses will instantly dress up an outfit.
When traditional box clutches feel a little dated, it's time to reach for a beaded bag.
I think I just found the solution to uncomfortable, sky-high heels: the elegant mule.
You don't need to be a beauty buff to enjoy this universally flattering shade of rosy, blush pink with a warm, brown undertone.
WHAT TO WEAR TO THE OFFICE
The fashion set is into masculine tailoring right now, so if you invest in any blazer this season, make it a big one.
Swap the white shirt you wore all summer for an office-ready blue. It's the perfect accompaniment to blue jeans.
Who said you can't wear jeans to work? Blue jeans and tailoring are the contemporary way to do the office dress code.
I haven't stopped thinking about these boots since I first saw them. I initially wanted to keep these hidden gems to myself, but I'm willing to let you in on the site's best-kept secret.
You won't find long-wearing hoops like these for a better price.
WHAT TO WEAR TO EVENING DRINKS
It doesn't get chicer than an all-black outfit, so you're going to need a blazer with a strong silhouette to carry the look.
Try a kick-flare for a '70s-inspired, Studio 54 edge.
Speaking of disco, these unforgettable heels will look just as good with a suit as they will with your favourite party dress.
Thanks to Bottega Veneta, the most common street style accessory has changed from the shoulder bag to the oversized clutch.
A modern take on the classic chunky chain.
WHAT TO WEAR ON A LAZY WEEKEND
There are few pieces that off-duty models, A-list celebs and fashion editors have in common, but a leather biker jacket is one of them.
Every wardrobe needs a plain white tee, and this one has just the right amount of thickness and stretch to rewear time and time again.
The autumn/winter runways have spoken, and straight-leg jeans have been replaced by a whole new fit: the slouchy wide-leg.
Even those who aren't self-confessed sneakerheads can appreciate the longstanding appeal of the classic Converse Chuck Taylors.
Sorry, tiny baguettes. When it comes to premium-looking bags, the roomy, suede tote has got it in the bag.
It's a well-known fact that any outfit can be significantly improved with a pair of sunglasses. (Just see any celeb street style pic for proof.) Coloured lenses and Y2K-inspired frames topped our list of the trending styles to invest in now.
