There’s a lot to like about Rachel Stevens personal style. Her minimalist aesthetic and easy-to-wear silhouettes supply plenty of inspiration all year round. Better still, we’ve noticed that Rachel re-wears a lot of her pieces, proving just how versatile and long-lasting great pieces can be. As we all look to make the most of our clothes and reduce our consumption, finding pieces that work year after year is even more important. Of course, you can play with fun new trends as they come and go, because chances are if you hold on to it, the trend will come back around again.
Recently, Rachel shared some of her favourite autumn looks she’s worn, and we instantly fell in love with one particular cardigan-and-jeans combination.
Her & Other Stories black and white cardigan is so classic, allowing for plenty of styling options, but the jeans pairing is our current favourite.
Personally, I am so pleased the cardigans have regained their fashionable status in recent years, as they’ve become one of the most versatile additions to my wardrobe. I’ve come to rely on cardigans for this awkward in-between weather. For days when the sun peaks through, having a cardigan to hand will save you when the evening chill sets in. Better still, for your travel temperature dilemmas: You head out for the day wrapped up to avoid the autumn chill, but when you take your first step into the tube station you immediately regret every single layer. That’s the beauty of a cardigan, wear done all the way up or open when you’re warmer. There’s plenty of ways that a cardigan can come in handy – throw over a dress, wear on its own with tailored trousers, or take note from Rachel and pair with classic denim.
Sadly, Rachel’s exact cardigan is currently out (watch this space for any restocks) but & Other Stories always comes through with classic, timeless yet affordable pieces so there’s plenty of styles available to shop.
