Need.
Words by Jadie Troy-Pryde
Sadly, it seems that the British summer is well and truly over. As we start to swap this season's key pieces for wardrobe essentials that are much more weather appropriate, you might find yourself wincing as you pack up the summer dresses and start shopping for the best raincoats.
But there is one ray of light in an otherwise grey sky - putting together a trans-seasonal wardrobe for that unpredictable time between now and proper autumn means that you can pick out your favourite weatherproof pieces from the highstreet to see you through. And there's one statement piece that we have our eyes on at the moment.
Style influencers and fashion editors alike are doing their best to get hold of this gorgeous lace cutwork sweatshirt from Topshop. If you haven't seen it on your Instagram feed just yet, trust us - you will. It's currently so popular that it's destined to be this year's answer to THAT Zara coat. Fingers crossed that it makes an appearance in the Topshop Black Friday sales this year.

The top is proving very popular and it's selling out ridiculously fast. It's not hard to see why, either - the delicate cutwork lace teamed with ruffle panels makes it a go-to piece when it comes to seamlessly transitioning from the office to after-work drinks.
As ever, when something is as popular as this it can be a bit of a challenge to get hold of it. But, as we all know, good things don't always come easy.
May the odds be ever in your favour.
