If travel is on your horizon, then you should know that in many other countries autumn feels much colder than it does here in the UAE. Here are four pieces to keep you warm if you’re heading off to a chilly location this month.

1. Comfortable and light trousers

With cold weather, the trick is to be comfortable and warm. Jeans always feel a little tight on the skin and are therefore not insulating or warm enough. These classic looking trousers, look elegant, but feel like sweatpants and they are designed to keep you warmer from the front, which protects you if you’re walking against wind.

2. Cool shoes that will keep your feet toasty

After living in a cold country for four years, I learnt the hard way that you can never truly feel warm unless your feet and toes are warm. These stylish, comfortable and warm boots are a great addition to any winter wardrobe. The super-soft lamb lining and wool sock keep feet warm and comfortable when the temperature drops. Moreover, the colour is versatile and elegant.

3. A sweater you can drown in

Oversized sweaters are all the rage. Especially when they are in such a bold colour. Stand out wherever you go in this bright red cable knit sweater. Pair it with skinny black or dark denim trousers or a high waist leather skirt.

4. Fashionable outerwear

A good quality outerwear coat can keep you warm no matter what you wear underneath. If you want to be stylish with a lightweight cashmere sweater or just a long sleeved cotton tee, get yourself a good outwear piece. This style and colour is very trendy right now.
