There’s a real tendency to lean into darker colours the moment October arrives. Rich chocolate browns, charcoal greys and deep burgundy all have their place, but if your wardrobe starts feeling a little repetitive, adding one brighter shade can make getting dressed much more exciting.

This season, yellow has emerged as one of fashion's most refreshing colours, bringing warmth to cold weather outfits without feeling too bold or difficult to style. Naturally, Sainsbury's in house clothing brand Tu has jumped on the trend, and have released four key knitted pieces that will become your most loved wardrobe addition.

With prices starting from just £12, you can easily and affordably introduce the colour trend to your wardrobe. Think yellow jumpers, cardigans and knitted tops that are as chic as they are practical, especially as we enter chilly outdoor territory.

Of course, the true brilliance of these pieces is just how wearable they are. If you're hesitant about introducing more colour into your wardrobe, these colours pair effortlessly with the autumn staples you already own, making adding them to your wardrobe a no brainer.

Wear one with dark indigo jeans for a look that's timeless but a little more playful, tuck it into a chocolate brown midi skirt to tap into one of the season's biggest colour combinations, or throw it over tailored black trousers to brighten up office dressing. As for footwear, opt for some chic loafers in black or brown, or perhaps reach for your favourite camel kitten heel boots in suede for a sophisticated touch.

The best part? These are the kind of pieces you'll wear year after year rather than for just one season. The colour will also work well in the spring months too when pastel tones make a comeback.
