Get the Annie Hall look this season from the designer fashion crowd

With the huge prevalence of tailoring and wide leg trousers in this season's biggest fashions, it's no wonder that a few celebs have been seen sporting a very androgynous look. Reminiscent of Annie Hall, this is a look I adore, but one that's hard for us mere mortals to carry off. That's why I've chosen this look with a hint of femininity, to take this style trend that's come back into fashion again and again and keep it looking sexy.

The cardigan with shirt insert is from McQ and provides a casual yet stylish way to daring androgyny with its high neck and boyish cut. The skinny sleeves make it very wearable against the loose fitting body.

I've teamed this top with Marc by Marc Jacobs slim fit jeans, instead of opting for wide legs. This makes the whole outfit much easier to wear as the boyish feel isn't so strong, and if you've got a bum worth showing off there's no reason why not to. I've finished off with a pair of Marc Jacobs suede heels. This gorgeous pair are colour co-ordinated with the top and add a bit of glam to the otherwise casual outfit, without being over the top and girly.

Gorgeous daywear to brighten up your Autumn from Miss Selfridge

I often get the feeling that Autumn inspires despair in the hearts of ladies everywhere. I take a different view, there's new stock in the shops, fabulously rich colours and even a few gorgeous dresses preparing for the run up to party season.

This outfit from Miss Selfridge is a perfect example of why I love Autumn clothes. The rich browns and golds work fantastically together, and I love layering so very much. I chose a casual dress that's still effortlessly flattering with an empire line and heart shaped neckline. I then teamed the dress with a cute, chunky knit mini cardi to keep out the chill without fear of drowning your frame. Accessories in bronze/gold give this outfit a lift from the ordinary. I love these point toe pumps, perfect day shoes that I'd gladly wear to death.
