The English countryside has always been a source of fashion inspiration – think rustic charm blended with high-end style. Fabrics like corduroy, flannel, and shearling are fashionable and functional, perfect for the chilly temps and varying weather. One standout piece, the Barn Jacket, is particularly perfect for this transitional time of year. What I love about this trend is how well it fits into every fall adventure both in and out of the city. The refined country chic look is versatile, from football-watching to pumpkin picking. Here are some key elements of this trend:
Tweed and Herringbone: These fabrics are staples in countryside fashion, often used for tailored jackets, skirts, and trousers. They provide warmth and durability, perfect for outdoor activities.
Layering: The climate in the countryside can be unpredictable, so layering is essential. Think lightweight shirts under warm sweaters, topped with a stylish coat or a field jacket.

Wellies and Riding Boots: Footwear is functional and fashionable, with rubber Wellington boots ideal for wet weather and riding boots serving a country chic style.
Burgundy and oxblood are trending colors this season, offering elegance and warmth. These shades look stunning individually or even mixed together. A stylish oxblood jacket can elevate your outfit, giving it that chic edge.
Play with layering these colors. Think of burgundy trousers, a cream-colored top, and an oxblood scarf. It’s an ensemble that screams sophistication.

Last but not least, let’s talk about suede. This luxurious texture has a timeless appeal and is perfect for creating depth in your outfit. Whether it’s boots, skirts, or jackets, suede can effortlessly elevate your style.
Suede also works beautifully with florals and prints. For the full English countryside charm, try a floral dress and a suede jacket layered over it.
