While most shoppers are still making the most of warm-weather wardrobes, the latest FatFace sale has many - myself included - thinking ahead to autumn dressing. Prices have been slashed across some of the retailer's most popular styles, and some of them are perfect for the cooler weather to come.

Among the top picks is the Milly Blue Ditsy Regular Quilted Jacket, reduced from 69 to 28. Quilted jackets return year after year, making them a safe fashion investment for those milder summer days, chilly evenings and autumn months.

Available in sizes 6-24 , the jacket is designed with a curved hem in a dainty floral pattern, as chic for autumn as it is spring, too. The relaxed fit lends itself easily to layering over jumpers and knitwear, while the button-down front and handy pockets make it as practical as it is stylish, ideal for everything from dog walks to weekend coffee trips.

Shoppers have been equally impressed with the jacket, with one commenting: "Lovely fit, easy to wear. Goes fabulous with my jeans. Quality fabric. What's not to love."

Another wrote: "Really pleased with my purchase of this jacket. lovely pattern and colour. Being on the bigger side I wondered about ordering a jacket as I'm never sure of the fit but thought I would take a chance on this one and I'm so glad I did. It's a very comfortable fit and I can even do the buttons up which is a bonus. It's lightweight but being padded will give some warmth on a chilly evening."

Product Description

Designed with curved hems, a button-down front, and two handy pockets, its finished with a relaxed fit that makes layering easy.

However, one reviewer felt the original price was difficult to justify, writing: "I absolutely love this jacket. I just think its a little pricey for what it is but quality wise its great." However, the new sub-30 price tag is difficult to grumble over.

Animal print is always a popular choice for autumn, so the Winona Tan Brown Animal Spot Regular Midi Dress , now reduced from 75 to 35, feels particularly seasonal. FatFace describes it as a dress for all seasons, with short sleeves and a round neckline that means it can be paired with sandals now, then switch to ankle boots and a chunky cardigan once temperatures begin to dip.

A subtle side slit gives the frock an elevated feel, while the addition of pockets is a welcome addition. One delighted shopper wrote: "My husband bought me the dress for my birthday. l love it - so comfortable, lovely material and lovely to wear - everyone admired the dress."

Another praised its flattering fit, saying: "Lovely dress, falls beautifully, hides any lumps and bumps! Good length, and soft material. Only reason its not 5 stars is I found it comes up a bit big, I could have gone down a size but didnt have time to exchange it before the event I bought it for."

Meanwhile, at Nobodys Child, their new-in section is providing plenty of AW26 inspiration. Their Brown Leopard Print Brooklyn Shirt Midi Dress comes in at 110 and features a collar and balloon sleeves, complete with a tie-belt. But as the price is more premium, shoppers may prefer to consider their sale, which has up to 60% off selected styles.

For those with weddings or special occasions still pencilled into the diary, the Mischa Ivory Polka Dot Prom Dress has also been discounted, falling from 99 to 63. Polka dots are totally timeless, which is why theyre a firm favourite with Princess of Wales Kate Middleton, meaning this is a dress that can be worn year after year.

It stars a full skirt, gathered bodice and pockets with customers saying they cant wait to wear it. One added: "Lovely dress for a wedding or special occasion.

Another was less convinced, explaining: "Great quality, lovely fabric. I loved the colour, swishy skirt, ruched/gathered top and pockets. Might have been ok for a more casual look but I wanted something for a wedding and this didn't feel smart enough."

The high street is currently awash with polka dot prints, so you neednt look far for an alternative. One of my personal favourites, though, is this Pure Cotton Polka Dot Ruffle Midi Skater Dress, which is 42 at M&S . Made from 100% cotton, its crafted in a regular fit with a scoop neckline and a midi-length hem, finished with frill detailing on the bodice and waist for a feminine feel.

Butter yellow and knitwear is a match made in heaven and the Celia Yellow Knitted Roll Neck Jumper is one shoppers have said is a joy to wear. Reduced from 62 to 25, it's one of the biggest bargains in the sale.

The longer length offers extra coverage, while the cable-knit detailing and relaxed shape make it ideal for layering over dresses, leggings or tailored trousers. One shopper wrote: "Love this! So warm and stylish. The colour makes me smile and its a joy to wear this jumper."

Another simply described it as a "Beautiful soft cosy sweater," though some may prefer a more fitted style, with one three-star review reading: ! dont like the wide, loose sleeves which are too short for me or the loose baggy neck.

My final top pick is the Celeste Brown Faux Fur Coat, now 65 instead of 140. Its definitely a statement style that brings drama and glamour to an outfit - but its fully lined style is warm and cosy, too, ideal for taking into the winter months.

One reviewer wrote: "I had this as a Christmas present and absolutely love it. It is quite roomy so I could have had a size smaller."

Another added: "Lovely coat, it feels warm without being too heavy and looks stylish. Its quite hard to find the press stud fastening amongst all the fur and if there had been a XS left in stock I probably would have ordered that to try on because it is large. Im a size 10 and 5 foot 5 and the small it is definitely roomy."
