Prada's wild belted and buttoned fur prowls out of the dark woods where branches groan under the weight of snow and an eerie howl is carried in the cold wind.

Joining the wolves of the north, the belted AW11 coat stands against winters onslaught.

To wear this, as Miuccia intended harking back to female empowerment in the sixties, takes courage and a fearlessness. As too does surviving a bitter winter in London. Take your cue from the wild and wrap up in Prada.

Hot pinks, bold oranges, cobalt blue and flashes of gold patterns intertwine in this silk Hermès scarf.

There's a flickering scene that plays out in our minds whenever a headscarf appears as if from an old '50s film; It's a sepia toned blustery LA day. Somewhere in the Hollywood hills a convertible tears down a road where a woman, headscarf knotted, with dark sunglasses tucked beneath the silk and hair flying, races against the wind.

It's all the fault of Grace Kelly, Audrey, Bardot, Jean Shrimpton and of course Queen Elizabeth II who wrapped that little piece of silk around their heads and gave it the power to evoke glamour that hasn't wained.

Here the Hermès bright printed scarf in its bold glory is paired with the dark Dita sunglasses. Loewe's coat fits perfectly around the classic 60s poloneck from Uniqlo. The sexy woven orange skirt from Bottega Veneta hugs the hips in true old screen siren form. Gucci, a house who's no stranger to glamour lends it's gold and black heels to finish the look.

Our obsession with the '50s and '60s shows no signs of fading. This is what all our autumn days should look like.

Autumn's skies flip in a second from dappled light through trees ready to shed their crumpled leaves to angry clouds spitting rain. In a flash the weather beats it's unpredictability down upon us.

But our girl sits unfazed, hidden beneath the golden leaves of the Aspinal umbrella. She wears the white lace of Meadham Kirchhoff paired with the pleated sparkle of the Lanvin skirt. Boarding school pull up socks are teamed with glittering toed Versus shoes.

It's a moment of escapism and romanticism in a small and surreal world, where fashion takes on the wild mood swings of the season.
