Autumn is officially here and we can finally justify new season fashion purchases like this fab €43 River Island dress.

There's a noticeable chill in the air, golden leaves are falling from trees and cosy nights in have replaced dinner and drinks in the latest fancy bar.

With this change in weather comes the necessity to adjust your wardrobe but thankfully, there are some rather gorgeous options available.

Our latest find is the Long Sleeve Twist Front Midi dress from River Island and it comes in two perfect colours.

Take this fab €43 River Island dress and with this particular must-have, you can choose from functional grey or autumnal rust. The twist front sets it apart, making it a statement piece and a little different to a standard midi dress. It's also quite a flattering look at the detail just above the tummy area draws attention upwards, ideal for what I often refer to as 'pasta baby' days (also known as the best time of the week). It's the kind of piece that can easily be layered too so while the long sleeves are great for autumn, you can add a cosy cardigan or winter coat when it gets chilly. Style it with ankle boots and hoop earrings or some gold necklaces for an easy and effortlessly chic daytime look. This is a piece that will work overtime in your wardrobe and ensure serious value for money - love, love, LOVE. Corduroy shirts are also big news for the season ahead and the neutral shade of this River Island pick is gorgeous, I should know as I picked it up for myself last week. Wear it as a jacket layering it over lighter pieces or simply tucked into jeans, a versatile item that can be styled several different ways.
