Sometimes, it can feel like affordable clothing means compromising on style. But that's not always the case, as the high street has proved in recent years. M&S's AW26 collection, for example, stayed true to the brand's budget friendly roots, with pieces starting from just £8.
H&M and Zara also remain great choices for affordable pieces that are endlessly chic, but it's the supermarkets that have truly nailed luxe style for less, with George at Asda leading the way. And if you already thought its pieces were budget friendly, you'll be pleased to know that right now there's up to 50% off some of its chicest styles, with the knitwear being the real star of the show.
The discounted knitwear has arrived at just the right time, too, considering we're starting to notice a real shift in the weather. Mornings have become especially crisp, meaning I'm automatically reaching for cosier pieces that will keep me that little bit warmer on my commute to work.
Whether you're after a classic v-neck jumper to throw on with your favourite jeans, a cosy cardigan for layering over dresses or a soft knit that'll see you through weekend walks, there's plenty to choose from. Better still, many of the discounted styles look far more expensive than their price tags suggest, proving you don't have to spend a fortune to build an autumn wardrobe you'll wear on repeat.
I've narrowed down the five best pieces in the sale that you need to buy now - before they sell out.
