Pippa Middleton's chic burgundy coat and chocolate knee high boots are so on-trend – we're adding these rich colours to our wardrobe immediately


You don't have to look far to realise burgundy is the colour of the season. The deep rich hue is everywhere right now. But, once again, we see Pippa Middleton was ahead of this trend, choosing it as the main colour to wear at Kate Middleton's Christmas carol service back in 2022.
Attending her sister's annual festive service, Pippa wore the chicest burgundy coat with a black tie waist, and paired it with a pair of beautiful chocolate brown knee high boots – the two rich colours complementing each other perfectly. And we can't wait to add both of these rich shades to our autumn capsule wardrobe.
And Pippa wasn't the only one wearing the popular shade of red – Zara Tindall wore an almost identical piece to the very same event. But with both women always at the forefront of fashion trends, it's no surprise to see both of them leading the trends we're now seeing take this season by storm.

We were very excited to come across this super affordable piece at Argos. The gorgeous 'berry red' colour is perfect hue for the upcoming seasons, and the longline design add extra coverage to keep you warm as the temperature drops. The cinched waist and side pockets make it super flattering and versatile - all for a great price point too.
Nothing says cosy and glamorous quite like a bit of velvet - add this deep rich burgundy colour to the mix and you've got a winter coat that you'll never want to take off. The longline is super flattering, and will keep you warm in the chillier upcoming seasons. A timeless design, this piece will see you through multiple autumn/winters in style.
Currently in the sale, it's not hard to see why this stunning tie-waist wool coat from Whistles is selling fast. It oozes luxury and elegance, and the 100% wool design will keep you warm in cold weather, and cool in the winter sunshine. A relaxed cut and tie-waist make for the perfect fit, and an oversized collar elevates the look overall. An investment piece you'll never grow tired of.
As such timeless staples, we wouldn't be surprised to see both Pippa and Zara step out again in these pieces over the next few months. And they both proved the versatility of them, with Zara pairing hers with classic black stilettos, and Pippa opting for striking chocolate brown knee high boots. And it's the latter that have really caught our attention.
Much like the colour burgundy, knee high boots are very much seeing a resurgence this season – and there are some absolutely beautiful ones around right now, with a very similar look and feel as Pippa's. As the colder weather moves in, boots are quickly going to become the go-to shoe for us all, and investing in a quality, stylish pair of knee highs is something you're never going to regret.

We couldn't quite believe the price of these stunning brown knee high boots from Berksha. At under £60, these block heel boots are an absolute steal - particularly when you consider the flexible latex foam insole for comfortable all-day wear. Simple and sleek, a classic side zip allows them to easily slip on and off – and the style option are endless.
With a huge 38% off in the sale, these chocolate brown knee high boots from Jones Bootmaker offer timeless style at an affordable price point. With a standard calf fit, the polished leather is soft and comfortable for day-to-night wear, and the versatile design means you can pair them with endless outfits.
We can't get enough of these long suede brown boots from Mint Velvet. An investment piece, these boots will see you through countless seasons, and never go out of fashion. The classic style makes them super versatile, and the luxurious material and longer style gives them an elegant feel and very flattering fit.
