We’re always looking to Victoria Beckham for style inspiration; she really is just one of those celebrities who has mastered their signature look. Sleek, sophisticated and always polished, tailored separates are a staple in her autumn capsule wardrobe, and she always manages to walk the fine line of smart casual style so well.
When it comes to tailored trousers, we’ve seen her style them with cosy knitwear, crisp button-ups ups and oversized blazers, but it’s this look from 2017 that feels so directional right now, that if we spotted the star in it tomorrow, she’d be bang on trend.

The two colours are pretty neutral, meaning they pair well together, as well as working well with other timeless hues such as black, camel and cream. Victoria completed her look with a pair of white heels and a coordinating white crossbody bag (a discontinued style from her own brand).
If you’ve got a great pair of grey trousers, take a leaf out of Victoria Beckham’s book and team them with burgundy tones for a directional take on colour trends.

Ruched Side Top
With a flattering bateau neck and ruched detailing, this elevated, long-sleeve top is both eye-catching and versatile. Easily styled like Victoria has done, it will also work well with your favourite jeans and skirts too.
Zara
Leather High-Heel Shoes
Swapping out your go-to black heels for a white pair is such a simple styling tip, but can help you create a whole new look. These simple court shoes from Zara are made from leather and are so sleek.
If you’re looking at how to style burgundy hues this season, take a leaf out of Victoria Beckham’s fashion book and treat this moody hue as a neutral. Pair it with other timeless hues such as navy, camel and cream for a chic, quiet luxury look that still feels trend-driven.
Victoria proves that you really can’t go wrong with rich red wine tones in the autumn, adding a burst of colour, but one that feels effortlessly elevated, with little extra work. The classic, long-sleeve silhouette always helps to balance out the width of the trouser hem for a truly chic ensemble that we can’t quite believe is from 2017; it feels so timely.
And finally, don’t be afraid to buck the trend in the autumn and move away from camel, black and oxblood when it comes to accessories. Victoria uses white shoes and a bag to lift her look and add a little more brightness, and this lightens the whole look, while still feeling subtle and chic.
