1. Jil Sander Mahogany Fragrance

I'll be wearing this rich, woody, leathery fragrance every day. The minute the weather turns, this is exactly what I want to smell like.

2. Levi's Loose Prep Jeans
I'll be wearing mine with block-colour cashmere jumpers and cable knits (see below).

3. Scouring Vinted for Ralph Lauren Cable Knits
Half the fun is the hunt, and right now, this is what I’m hunting for.

4. Soho River House, Windsor

I’m looking forward to this new club opening in my neighbourhood.

5. Winter Red Lipsticks
This season's winter reds from Violette_FR, Gucci Westman and Lisa Eldridge are all excellent. Autumn is when a great red lipstick really comes into its own.

6. New Auburn Hair Colour Moodboard with Tom Smith
Every autumn I feel like changing my hair colour. This year's inspiration is a rich auburn palette that feels warm, glossy and expensive.

7. Diptyque Citrouille (Pumpkin) Candle
The quickest way to make a home feel like autumn.
