With these classic and timeless pieces underpinning your clothing collection, you'll find styling chic, cosy autumnal looks becomes a simple task - and Pippa Middleton proved exactly this with a stunning throwback look from 2011.

Stepping out in London, Pippa elevated her black mini dress, which was already a stunning piece in its own right thanks to the intricately patterned lace and chic relaxed silhouette, with a pair of stunning brown leather ankle boots and a matching handbag.

Keeping warm in the cool autumn weather, she threw on a practical zip-up coat, opting for a simple and sleek style that featured little embellishment bar for its zip and pop-up collar.

This styling left Pippa's accessories to shine. While she could've leaned into a monochrome look, the warm brown-toned hue of the leather gave a whole new look to the black ensemble, bringing in a cosier autumn flair to the outfit.

With a slouchy look, the boots perfectly balanced the line between casual and chic, with their buckle detailing, sleek almond toe, and asymmetrical topline adding interest as well as a warmer autumn shade. While we love suede boots for autumn, this leather pair is absolutely stunning.

Pippa's leather handbag, the discontinued Pippa Medium Grab Bag by Modalu, tied in with her footwear, matching the warm brown boots perfectly for a sleek and put-together style we're going to be recreating all throughout the upcoming season.

Leaning into a more casual, off-duty look, Pippa styled her hair in a sleek ponytail, making sure to keep lots of volume at her roots.

A sweeping of bronzer brought a warm pop of colour to her cheeks despite the cold weather, while a nude lipstick tied into the sleek and refined style of her outfit.

Sunglasses covered her eyes, but when it comes to eye makeup, we think a warm brown eyeshadow look would work brilliantly with this outfit, highlighting the brown leather accessories to tie everything together neatly.
