CITY SHIRT ON THE CATWALK
If you think TM Lewin is only for buying husbands and boyfriends sensible shirts for work, think again. The brand has a rich heritage - it was founded in 1898 - but its autumn womenswear collection is aiming to bring fashion back into the office. To prove it, TM Lewin's fitted blouse featured on Phillip Treacy's London Fashion Week catwalk earlier this week. The navy version sold out immediately, while the berry shirt, with its dainty clover pattern and rounded collar, encapsulates the print trend - and it's only £32.50. TM Lewin products are still designed in-house in London and are available online and nationwide. Team with print trousers for a high-fashion look or wear with classic plain jeans.www.tmlewin.co.uk

We loved London-based designer Tabitha Somerset-Webb’s label Tabitha back when it launched in 2003… but then our go-to leather label disappeared off the face of the earth. Now it's back, rebranded as Tabitha London and relaunching in style on 4 September with a shiny new website and a hot new collection set to include clutches, metallic makeup bags, studded day totes and colourful iPad covers with inspiration drawn from Tabitha's favourite music hits. We’re loving this Boogie Nights clutch, £110, in disco-friendly cobalt blue and cream, but a purple studded croc bag is putting up some stiff competition.

A jacket is the perfect finishing touch for an outfit, corralling together rogue elements and adding a certain je ne sais quoi... the right jacket, that is. And this Maison Scotch number is just that. Perfectly proportioned with slightly accentuated shoulders and a rounded neckline (meaning it goes with almost anything), it not only has an instant smartening and slimming effect - but the Himalayan-flavour embellishment at neck, sleeves and running down the front (beads, bells, pom poms...) and the unfinished eyelash hems are adorable. Want. One. Now.
