August should set alarm bells ringing in your mind. Although it’s midsummer, it also signals the beginning of autumn preparation. While this may scare some, it excites many. Some see this as the end of summer which, of course, it is. Others amongst us see this as the beginning of woollen season. Merino wool sweatshirts, overcoats and textured trousers are back on the menu and we’re definitely okay with that. When it comes to autumn wardrobes, we often overlook a new scarf and a new pair of designer gloves, seeing them as overkill for autumn – how wrong we are. A pair of leather gloves and a cashmere scarf never go amiss in the colder seasons. So, for the sake of warm fingers and necks, we’ve compiled a list of our favourite designer gloves and scarves for autumn.

Le Bonnet Smoke Gloves

Before touchscreen gloves were invented, the most practical pairs on the market were men’s fingerless gloves. Worn to offer dexterity as well as warm hands, fingerless gloves are perfect for autumn temperatures. Le Bonnet’s Smoke Gloves are made from 100% Geelong wool sourced and manufactured in the Scotland which makes them supremely soft and cosy.
