As a fashion editor, I spend a healthy portion of my days on the hunt for the latest and greatest on offer across my favourite high-street and designer brands, and lately, I must admit I've been spoilt for choice. With the official advent of winter less than two weeks away, the latest high-street offerings have me truly excited for the cold weather ahead. From chic coats to cosy knits and chunky boots, I'll swap the sunshine for a good excuse to layer any day of the week.
So, with a love for all things winterwear, I've collated some of the very best new-in pieces across three of my favourite high street brands: Zara, COS and ARKET. Each catering to a slightly different audience, and all with their own strengths, this new-season edit comprises classic winter items, chic party pieces and trending yet timeless new-season buys.
Read on to discover the very best from these high-street heroes.
