Berry-inspired beauty and fashion trends to cosy up with this winter

From rich merlot to punchy cherry, these pieces look set to incorporate the season’s cosiest hue into your wardrobe and beauty rotation.

Food-based beauty trends aren’t exactly new – think strawberry milk nails or mocha mousse makeup.

The timelessness of each makes a strong case for berry shades as the next neutrals, stacking up with taupes and beiges as colours complementary to any ensemble.
