Thanks to the rise and rise of pre-collections, winter dressing (and shopping) no longer means dull and dreary colours – although it can, of course, if you'd prefer.

But if you're longing for an end to the grey and the black and the dark-by-4pm, the latest drop of Saint Laurent accessories, part of the label's latest Cruise collection which launches this month, is a blast of bright that is sure to help. Wallets, ballerinas and the label's latest classic Sac de Jour come in a range of breathy and fresh pastels and feminine shades that will usher in the spring a little bit early.
