If you can't seem to motivate yourself to start shopping for the cold weather [1] (I feel you), perhaps finding some stylish pieces on sale will help. We recommend starting with some key layers, like embellished sweaters (you'll gasp at the chain-detail one [2]), luxe-looking ribbed tops, and loose-fitting jeans. We found an easygoing brown dress that will set the tone for your entire look (why not wear it with the brown H&M wool-blend coat [3] for a striking monochrome moment [4]?)
These fashion-forward styles will help you achieve an enviable look for less, and we're very excited to score these deals. This season's basics and trendy pieces are exciting, fun, and all-around mood-boosting, and we couldn't wait to share our favourite finds. Read on.
