The week, we meet student Charlotte Dore, a woman with some clear ideas about her must-haves for this autumn/winter. As the weather changes we need to fill our wardrobes with cosy layers. And there’s so much on offer for this season, so be sure to make the most of it.

Blanket scarf:

The blanket scarf will be a big stand-out piece this season. It can double as a scarf/blanket/shield from the cold. Nine Crows have a range of one-off blanket scarves this season so no one will have the same as you. They come in a load of different colours so you will be able to find one to suit your style. Available in Nine Crows, Ormond Quay Lr, Dublin and online at ninecrows.com Prices range from €50-€60.

Jacket:

My favourite part of the year is picking my new winter coat or even coats. The range of coats and jackets this season is the best I've seen in years. Zara are ahead of the pack with variety and price. Bottle green is a great colour option if you are looking to move away from eternal black but still want something versatile. Available from zara.com, €89.95.

Boots:

These imitation Doc Martens are a great addition to your wardrobe. They are like wellies but not ugly. Charlotte's black with glitter ones are gorgeous and will add that little pop of glamour to a casual weekend look. Get them in Penneys and online from ebay.com
