Honestly, who better to turn to for fall outfit inspiration than the Brits? With an average of 106 rainy days to endure each year, Londoners, Bristolians, and Mancunians certainly know a thing or two about dressing for inclement weather. And, to almost no one's surprise, the one wardrobe basic nearly every stylish British autumnal ensemble has in common is jeans, as you may have already surmised from the title of this story.
While donning denim during the fall months isn't a particularly novel idea, and it's by no means exclusive to the Brits, the English have a way of elevating the essential with quintessentially British pieces. Think Burberry trench coats, Topshop ankle boots, ASOS sweaters, and Barbour jackets. In anticipation of the coming season, we're sharing a few typically British items to wear with jeans.
