Autumn is fast descending and Winter will soon hold us in it's icy clutches. Now isn't the time to head inside and lock all the doors just yet! This season it's all about rugged and functional clothing designed to keep you warm and dry whilst embracing what the outdoors has to offer. The colours of your wardrobe also shouldn't have to suffer just because the leaves have fallen off the trees, keep it bright and make a statement.

This couldn't be more evident than in Penfield's Lakeville Jacket in Cobalt. Fully waterproofed with a large peaked hood, this jacket was made for trekking outside in the wet weather! Though anyone wearing it is unlikely to be lost amongst the foliage as the bright cobalt blue and red lining will keep even the most inconspicuous visible to all.

As the cold weather descends layering is your best friend for staying warm. Many light layers trap warm air far better than fewer thick layers do. The YMC Bird Eye Pocket Knit in Red is a great statement knit with a textured body to break up the piece and an interesting twist pocket detail on the lower left of the body.

Keeping feet dry is obviously a high priority and there is no better way to achieve this small miracle than in the Jones Curry Leather boots from Clae. These shoes may be luxuriously soft mid-tops, but don't let appearances fool you; these are sure to more than rise to the challenge presented by anything the British climate can throw around. Lacing these with the red laces Clae provide also keeps the bright red theme running through the whole outfit.
