Glove-up

If you're going to cover up your hands this autumn, and lets face it, the weather has turned, then look no further than these gloves from Dorothy Perkins.

Two-tone texture is the buzz-word of the season and these do the trend justice. Mixing leather and suede, they will keep you suitably warm and prevent those dry cuticles.

You wouldn't look out of place in a Bond film in these - as we all know 1940s glamour calls for long gloves. Mix with short sleeves and pencil skirt for that ultimate lady-like chic.

Or why not try wearing with your favourite biker jacket, don't forget the helmet-hair though. Keep a comb packed.

Cuddly

Key season colour - orange. Snug material - soft. Lampshade sleeves - spot on. This cardigan from Matalan ticks all the boxes when it comes to covering up. Don't hide under black - shine like the autumn leaves in this orange number at just £10.

Wear over black wool trousers for the office or team with a pair of dark jeans for weekend lazying around.

It's so versatile! Try a crisp white shirt underneath, big collar alert, or pull in the belt to give you that nipped-in look.

Perfect for members of the big-bottom brigade - look at the cut. It will fall at the slim part of your hips and the belt pulled in will give you a curvy sillouhette.

Don't be afraid to bask in colour - you'll turn a few heads in the sea of black on your commute to work.

Cuffs

Everyone and anyone who is anyone is wearing a cuff this season. Whether it is to keep your wrist warm or weather it's a nod to biker-chic, pop one on and you'll be the envy of all your friends. Fearne Cotton cannot put her cuff away, frequently seen on X Factor.

Why not try combining two trends with this gothic inspired cuff from Topshop. Bejewelled leather - you cannot go wrong.

At just £10 you can transport a sexy little black dress into the rock era or try it with short-shorts and a wet-look slinky vest a la Kate Moss.

Think perfectly jewelled not grunge.
