Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Add a pop of colour into an otherwise gloomy season with shades of orange and red. Fiery shades for autumn/winter were found at Burberry Prorsum and Versace. Not exactly a look for shrinking violets, tomato red is a colour that won’t fail to get you noticed.

There are more subtle ways to incorporate the shade into your wardrobe without going straight for a head-to-toe look. A hint of colour provided by an accessory or pattern is the first step.

Knitwear is an easy introduction to the colour and can easily be mixed in with other garments. Look for deeper Claret reds to ease your way into the trend which will work for all complexions while tangerine shades will be a better fit on those with darker tones.

If you are feeling brave enough to opt for a head-to-toe look don’t be afraid to mix and match shades; red and orange work well layered on-top of each other in different shades and textures as seen here with this Topman look.
