Transitioning from summer ensembles to autumnal outfit formulas can take some adjusting, but Jennifer Lopez may have just worn the perfect seasonal uniform that we will be recreating on repeat in the coming months.
Curating an autumn capsule wardrobe will make dressing for the cooler weather a breeze, so it pays to have several reliable basics on hand that will make an instantly sophisticated look. After seeing JLo's chic black turtleneck and dark wash jeans combination, we're convinced that these are the only staples we'll need.
After months of vibrant hues and bold patterns, it can be tempting to stick to equally as statement pieces for the start of a new season. But nothing can beat minimalist basics that will take you anywhere and everywhere - especially when JLo makes them look this good.

We love Intimissimi cashmere for layering in the colder months and this particular top has a very similar slightly sheer finish to JLo's. Wear with a pair of the best white trainers and some wide cut trousers or dress down with your loungewear for extra cosiness.
JLo's jeans look similar to the Frame braided waistband style, but if you don't have £330 to drop, this wide leg River Island pair is a sophisticated alternative in the same cut. With vintage style front pockets and three leg lengths available, you're guaranteed a perfect fit.
Nothing finishes off a timeless outfit quite like a pair of earrings. From Monica Vinader top picks to subtle studs like these, an affordable piece of jewellery has the power to make any look feel refined and polished - even if you just threw it on.
JLo has pretty much mastered off-duty style, always balancing sophistication with comfort and versatility. There are countless ways to style denim - from the best jeans for women over 60 to classic straight cut styles - but nothing beats an elegant turtleneck.
Monochromatic dressing is a shortcut to a refined outfit, but it's important to not let the look become too flat or dull. Jennifer expertly avoids this by opting for a semi-sheer top and grey washed jeans that add some texture and a modern edge to her muted outfit, which is ideal for this time of year.
And when it comes to basics like these, it's always worth spending a little bit more money on something that can be trusted to last for multiple years. This is an outfit that would have looked just as chic several years ago as it does now, so it pays to have high-quality capsule wardrobe investments on hand for seasons to come.
