Jumper: Beyond Retro, Brighton

Amazingly, I am not all in black. I haven't gone as far as wearing bright colours, but you've got to start somewhere.

I love a good vintage knit, and the Autumn/Winter season is the perfect time to bring them out in all their patterned glory. As a little twist, I'm trying out a cropped knit from Beyond Retro in Brighton. I really like the style, it works brilliantly with high waisted jeans to create a casual look that's perfect for the chillier days. Plus, the slight shapelessness gives a sort of Nineties vibe, which, as you're probably more than aware, is a key look at the moment.

I'm probably jumping on the bandwagon a little early, but chunky knitwear is always a staple for Autumn/Winter. The styles tend to remain relatively constant from year to year - a slightly offbeat pattern and a cable knit design are pretty much all you need for the look. And there's no need for it to be expensive. You can grab them from vintage shops, charity shops or even just your dad's wardrobe from the 70s.

I'm so looking forward to stocking up on these knits, they're just easy to throw on and wrap up. I'm especially loving the high-neck styles that are coming in at the moment, they add an element of chic to an otherwise casual style.

Jumper: ASOS
But it's definitely too early for the full-on christmas jumper, September is not the time to start dressing like our pal Colin...
