The €43 River Island dress we'll be living in for the foreseeable future.

It's that time of year again - cosy knits, hats and scarves are back on the style menu and we couldn't be happier. While it's tempting to buy pretty much everything, that's not a realistic outlook and so, a couple of sensible purchases will see you through the next couple of months. One item we do have to talk about this €43 River Island dress. It looks so cosy, the next best thing to wearing your duvet to bed and that's a look we can definitely get on board with. The Grey Ribbed Tie Front Jersey Dress is an online exclusive so you won't be able to find it in stores and if you want it, you'll have to order it from the website. The tie detail around the waist is very flattering, it draws the eyes downwards away from the stomach - ideal for pasta baby days. However, if you'd rather a shorter option and prefer mini dresses to midi styles, there's another gorgeous option from the high-street store. It's the Black Print Ruffle Swing Dress and it's priced at €43. River Island stylist Ruby has paired it with a pair of black boots, essential for every winter wardrobe and we are loving the look. You could add tights for when the weather gets colder and layer a cosy knit over the dress to change it up, making a skirt and top combination.
