october is the perfect time to reset your wardrobe and lean into all things cozy, classic, and effortlessly stylish. this month, i’m feeling inspired by a british style vibe that i’ve always loved—timeless, preppy, and a little bit nostalgic.
i’m in love with the cos scarf jacket—it’s the perfect addition to my autumn wardrobe. lately, i’ve been drawn to a british-inspired style that i’m really enjoying this season: think polo shirts with diamond details, classic plaid skirts, sleek loafers, and a palette of warm, earthy tones. this cos jacket ties it all together effortlessly.

accessory-wise, i’ve been dreaming about a suede bag from manu atelier. the texture is just gorgeous for fall, even if we do have to be careful with it on rainy days. still, it adds that soft, elegant touch that makes any outfit feel elevated.

for a little sparkle, my favorite pick is the maxi diana earrings. they’re bold enough to transform a simple daytime outfit but also perfect for completing a night-out look. they’ve become my go-to for adding effortless glam to any ensemble.
also on my october wishlist: the byredo lipstick in shade earth dust 249. it’s the perfect balance between beauty and comfort—rich in color with a soft matte finish that keeps my lips hydrated all day. the warm, earthy tone fits seamlessly into my autumn palette, and it adds just the right touch of sophistication to any look, whether i'm going for effortless daytime chic or something more polished for the evening.
and when the nights get cooler, there’s nothing better than curling up with a great book. this october, i’m starting a new novel by the bestselling author of writers & lovers—a story of desire, friendship, and the lasting impact of first love.
this season is all about layering, softness, and stories—both in style and on the page.
