Every Item on My Marks and Spencer Autumn Wish List Is £30 or Less

It's become apparent that Marks and Spencer is taking its fashion very seriously this season. Indeed, the high-street stalwart has reliably served up excellent autumn wares for the past few years, but we're of the opinion that the 2019 collection is its best yet. Sift through the large amount on offer and you'll find there are minimalist, expensive-looking pieces to rival any of the goods on offer at the likes of COS or Arket—you just have to know what's what. And with quality that's seldom seen on the rest of the high street, we find ourselves in M&S online new-in section, and its brick-and-mortar stores more than ever before. However, that isn't even the best part…

In other stores, £30 won't get you very much, but that's not the case in Marks and Spencer these days. In fact, most of our favourite pieces from the current collection come in under this threshold, with many peaking at just £20. From the perfect autumn knit to super versatile blouses, scroll down to see and shop our under-£30 Marks and Spencer edit.
