Trust Tanya: These Are the Autumn Staples to Buy This Month

Tanya Burr started her career with a focus on beauty, but now she's just as likely to make me want to buy a Ganni jumper or a floral minidress as a new foundation, as her Instagram has become a source of easy-to-copy casual outfit ideas. Tanya tends to lean on simple basics, rotating between cosy jumpers, ankle boots and jeans, and so she knows how to create the perfect autumn capsule better than anyone.
As part of our regular Wishlisting series here at Who What Wear, we ask influencers what they want to buy each month, and this time, I've asked Tanya what she's been wearing recently and what she wants to buy for autumn. In New York, she wore white denim shorts and white Zara trousers with khaki and logo T-shirts, but in London, she's been living in vibrant knitwear and brown corduroy with lots of gold jewellery.
Keep scrolling to see the pieces Tanya is loving this month.

Style Notes: For in-between seasons, pair a cord mini with knee-high boots, like these ones from Mango.
Style Notes: Sometimes you can't beat basics, and here Tanya wears jeans, a T-shirt and a blazer with some Converse.
Style Notes: When it comes to chunky knitwear, no one creates as many It knits as Ganni.
