You’re working from home, the light outside is dreary, and the buzz of your morning coffee has well and truly worn off – yet there are still hours to go before you can log-off. At these low-on-motivation moments, you might find your mind drifting to your snack supplies. What can you nibble on to give your afternoon a boost? What would go particularly well with your 3pm cup of tea?

Acclaimed Australian chocolatier Kirsten Tibballs (one of the most-followed female pastry chefs on Instagram, incidentally) has the answer in her new cookbook Chocolate All Day. At the link, Tibballs shares three recipes for snackable chocolatey treats perfect for lifting you out of an afternoon slump: chocolate-chip cookie sandwiches with orange ganache; peanut cookie cups with chocolate caramel filling; and a caramel slice topped with milk chocolate ganache. These recipes all make a sizeable batch of treats, which can be stored in an airtight container in your fridge for between a fortnight and a month. Honestly, though? We challenge anyone to resist polishing them off for that long. 

After a chic outfit with minimal fuss? A knitted twinset – meaning a simple knitted top and matching button-up cardigan – is your winter port of call. With ample options for styling, these two coordinating pieces are your shortcut to looking instantly put-together. Team together or wear separately with knitted knickers, tights and pointed toe kitten heels a la Miu Miu autumn/winter 2023, a librarian-chic look that has since been adopted by it-girls and influencers alike, including Emma Corrin and Bella Hadid. 

For further inspiration, you only need to look towards Missoni, whose twinsets are packed with vibrancy and intricate patterns to add a pop of colour. Whatever your occasion or sartorial preference, there’s a co-ord for everyone. From luxe lounging styles to classic crew-necks, these are the best knitted twin-sets you’ll never want to take off.
