The thought of braving a chilly morning commute in lightweight cotton suddenly feels far less appealing, and more freezing. <\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"8\" class=\"css-1ood0zq emevuu60\">Thankfully, there&#8217;s one fabric come autumn that solves this dilemma every single year, and that&#8217;s corduroy. Soft, very insulating and timeless, it&#8217;s the cosy choice that allows you to keep wearing skirts even after the mercury begins to drop, thanks to its plush texture.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"12\" class=\"css-1ood0zq emevuu60\">So, it was no surprise why I was ridiculously excited to spot a Corduroy Midi Skirt at Next, which is already proving popular with fashionable women.
