From cute dresses to on-trend work attire, the supermarket fast-fashion range always hits the mark, and its new autumn collection is no exception.
The on-trend buys won't be available to buy until August, but a member of the Tu team has already given shoppers an exciting preview.
Hannah Pountain, Director of Merchandising at Tu Clothing, revealed her top five picks from the new range in an Instagram video over the weekend.
And she rounded up her five top picks from the new range - including a staple buy which proves a classic 1920s trend is returning.
Argyle knitwear has since seen spikes in popularity over the years, and is a golf-core staple.
But it looks to return for AW25 with the likes of Miu Miu favouring the cosy print this year.
Showing off Tu's answer to the knitwear, Hannah said: "A trend that we're really feeling is the argyle knits. You'll have seen some of these come through the catwalk."
The fine knit cardigan features a tan, grey and cream colourway which means it will be easy to pair with outfits.
Hannah also revealed a dark denim co-ord is set to hit the rails next month.
The "super relaxed" rugby top-style shirt and loose bottoms will look perfect together, or can be styled separately.
Primark's new £10 summer top is the perfect & Other Stories dupe
"I love this shape, really, really easy to wear", Hannah gushed.
"It can be worn as a co-ord, but equally just as cool styled separately."
Next up, the fashion expert said a tan suede jacket is a "big favourite" across the team.
The stylish outerwear features "beautiful" stitch detailing on the pockets.
Sticking with the transitional buys, shoppers will also be able to snap up a navy paisley print quilted jacket.
Hannah said: "This is a really good one for the unpredictable British weather. It's a great layering piece. We love the colour and the print on it, brilliant transitional piece."
Finally, it looks like burgundy is back for autumn with a versatile striped shirt on the way that will be perfect for the office or an "easy, casual, everyday look".
"This is a gorgeous piece, I love the rich burgundy colour", Hannah said.

The Instagram clip quickly racked up more than 36,000 views with fashion fans already desperate to get their hands on the autumn buys.
One gushed: "Wow Hannah, I love it all! Not wishing Summer away but will be looking out for these!"
"Always the best season to style, cannot wait", said a second.
A third added: "Ohhhh I'm so happy about this!"
A fourth wrote: "Yup. I'll take the lot. Thank you very much."
"Some great pieces there, cannot wait", chimed in a fifth.
Meanwhile, a sixth cried: "Ohhhhh exciting. Some gorgeous pieces."
But if you're not ready to give up summer fashion just yet, the supermarket's got you covered with bargains there too.
Shoppers are going wild for a five-star Sainsbury's dress that's only £15, flatters pear shapes and makes curvy shoppers "feel confident".
As well as being purse-friendly, the dress looks strikingly similar to the Everett Linen Dress, which is priced at £298.
This makes the Tu dress a whopping £283 cheaper.
And a £26 frock that's perfect for summer getaways is flying off the rails.

Truth behind Travis Kelce's lock screen photo of Taylor Swift revealed after couple sparked engagement rumors
Taylor Swift is not showing off an engagement ring in the photo spotted on Travis Kelce 's lock screen, it has been confirmed. According to TMZ, the pop megastar is actually wearing Kelce's three Super Bowl rings in the loved-up snap he saved as his phone background, which eagle-eyed fans noticed in his Instagram dump on Thursday. Almost two years into their relationship the Kansas City Chiefs legend has finally gone Instagram official with Swift after sharing a series of pictures of their 'offseason adventures' together. In one of the images, Kelce's phone can be seen on the table while the couple are seemingly out for dinner together. Swifties quickly noticed that his lock screen was a black-and-white photo of him and Taylor, where she is holding both of her hands up to the camera while seemingly flaunting a ring. Engagement rumors therefore became rife once again, but it is believed Travis has not yet popped the question to his girlfriend. Instead, Taylor reportedly has his three championship rings on her fingers in the lock-screen picture. More to follow.

Taylor Swift's subtle tribute to Travis Kelce after he hard-launched romance and caused fan meltdown
Taylor Swift has broken her silence after her boyfriend of nearly two years Travis Kelce finally went Instagram official with her. Swifties the world over went into instant meltdown Thursday when Travis, 35, posted Instagram pictures with Taylor, 35, for the first time. Fans began forensically dissecting the images, making note of details like the lock screen of Travis' phone, which is now a snap of him with Taylor. Some breathless rumor-mongers even shared theories that they might be engaged, based on two different white outfits Taylor was pictured wearing. As the frenzy kept gathering steam into Friday, Taylor poured fuel on the fire by paying a subtle tribute to the NFL star on her Insta Stories. She uploaded a post enthusiastically plugging the new Adam Sandler movie Happy Gilmore 2, which contains a shirtless cameo by Travis. 'Happy Gilmore 2 had me cackling and cheering the whole movie!' she gushed. 'An absolute must watch, 13/10, go watch it on @netflix as soon as humanly possible.' She added a honey emoji, making a sly reference to a scene near the end of the movie in which Travis is slathered with the condiment while half-naked. Travis briefly appears in the movie as a high-strung maître d' who works with one of the main characters, a busboy called Oscar played by Bad Bunny. At one point Travis' character throws a temper tantrum and fires Oscar, who becomes the caddy to pro golfer Happy Gilmore (Adam Sandler). Near the end of the movie, Happy asks Oscar to picture his 'happy place' - and Oscar summons up an image of his Travis' character, tied up and wearing nothing but an apron with honey smeared all over him and a hungry bear approaching. One day before Taylor's post, Travis shared a number of loved-up photos with her on Thursday as part of an 'offseason adventures' Instagram dump, which marks the first time he has ever posted his girlfriend. The celebrity power couple, who have dominated headlines since they went public with their relationship in September 2023, look smitten in a number of snaps captured on nights out together. Travis and Taylor are first seen posing together in a warm setting, with other pictures showing them out for dinner, clowning around in the snow and skating on an ice rink. They also took photos with different groups of friends, one of which includes NFL reporters Charissa Thompson and Erin Andrews and their respective partners. Travis' older brother Jason, mom Donna and dad Ed also feature in the Instagram dump, as does Taylor's younger brother Austin. Travis and Jason are spotted in one of the images in a woodland setting with Austin, who appears to be holding a tree pruner. Nevertheless, Kelce's offseason dump has mainly sparked a frenzy online because of the intimate snaps he shared of Swift. The pop megastar's diehard legion of 'Swiftie' fans rushed to the comments to gush over the photos, with one writing: 'Their happiness is my happiness'. Another posted: 'SHE LOOKS SOOO HAPPY OMG'. While a third put: 'thank you for this - sincerely, all swifites'. Some eagle-eyed Swifties also pointed out how one of the photos shows that Swift features on the lock screen of her boyfriend's phone. One commented: 'why is nobody talking about how she's his lock screen!!!' 'The locked screen pic of Taylor and Trav....I just fainted,' said another. And a third joked: 'Not me zooming in on the phone screensaver.' Travis and Taylor are also seen enjoying a glass of wine with another group in a different photo Kelce and Swift have enjoyed a more low-key offseason together than last year, with the pair only making a handful of public appearances since the Chiefs' Super Bowl defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles in February. The most noteworthy of the lot came when Taylor made a surprise cameo at her man's 'Tight End University' event in Nashville last month, where she took to the stage and performed her famous 'Shake It Off' song. On a subsequent edition of his New Heights podcast, Travis explained that they had been cooking up a plan to 'have some fun' for some time. But his older brother Jason was among those who were shocked when footage emerged of the pop sensation on stage. 'Tay Tay showed up!' Travis said. 'We were in Nashville, she grew up in Nashville - she moved there when she was younger - and we had this planned for a while that we were going to have some fun with the tight ends. He continued: 'I won't say when the idea came up but we were there at "Tight End & Friends" and we knew that there was a professional like Kane Brown, who could just figure it out. 'He's a pro, he's been on stage a million times, he's not shy at all by any means... Tay just went up to him and the band and was like: "Hey if you guys are down, I'll go up there, play a song and see if we can pop the roof off this place." And sure enough...' Travis revealed that before going out to perform, Swift was backstage writing sheets of music for the band. 'I don't know, I'm not a musician but she was making sure that the band and everybody (knew it). And then just went out there without practicing and it was pitch perfect and just killed it,' Travis continued. 'She's so good with everybody and making people feel comfortable. And absolutely rocked the stage yet again, it was awesome, man.' Kelce was back on the practice field on Tuesday as the Chiefs began their preparations for the new NFL season. From Tuesday until August 13, the team will be based at Missouri Western State University in St Joseph - around an hour north Arrowhead Stadium. There, Kelce and the other 89 players on the roster will stay in dorms on campus for the duration of camp. That means three weeks without seeing their partners and families. For Kelce, that means three weeks without seeing Swift.

Marcus Rashford back with ex-fiancee Lucia Loi two years after split as childhood sweetheart joins him in Barcelona
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MARCUS Rashford has rekindled his relationship with former fiancée Lucia Loi — and she was with him when he signed for FC Barcelona, The Sun can reveal. The Three Lions ace, 27, and childhood sweetheart Lucia, 26, were together during a photoshoot before he was unveiled as the Catalan giants' latest signing at the Camp Nou stadium. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 7 Marcus Rashford being unveiled as Barcelona's latest signing at the Camp Nou stadium Credit: Getty 7 The footie ace has rekindled his relationship with former fiancée Lucia Loi Credit: Getty 7 Rashford had proposed to Lucia after a romantic meal at celebrity restaurant Catch LA in 2022 She took his photo, then moved behind him to take another and seemingly checked his shirt before the Man United exile posed beside a traditional red British phone box. Rashford was later seen emerging from the kiosk in a post on FC Barcelona's social media, captioned: 'Hello? Barca? For sure, I'm coming.' The striker has signed a year-long deal with Barcelona, who have an option to buy him next summer for around £26million. Old Trafford boss Ruben Amorim has made it clear he will not play for United while he is in charge. Rashford has been given the No14 shirt previously worn by big names including Johan Cruyff, Thierry Henry and Ronald Koeman. The Sun understands that Rashford has asked calming influence Lucia, who works in PR, to help him settle in to life in Spain so he can focus on his football. But they were not seen together until they were unwittingly snapped preparing for his phone box stunt. A source said the pair have stayed close, despite their 2022 engagement fizzling out, and have grown close again of late. They added: 'Marcus knows that some of the best moments in his career have occurred when Lucia has been at his side. 'They got together when they were very young and have had ups and downs, but a friendship has always remained. Barcelona announce loan signing of Man Utd forward Marcus Rashford 'He knows that she is good for him and she is one of the few people in the world he knows has got his best interests at heart. She is very sensible and helps keep him grounded.' Rashford said of his move: 'I'm very excited. It's a club where dreams come true. 'It feels like I'm at home and it's a big factor in my choice to come here. It's a family club and people are comfortable here.' Rashford, who flew out yesterday with his new teammates for his new club's Far East pre-season tour, and Lucia have been friends for at least a decade. They met at Ashton on Mersey School in Manchester where both were pupils. He was sent there as a teenage United academy player. They were dating when he made his first team debut in February 2016 in a UEFA Europa League match against FC Midtjylland. 7 Lucia takes snap of her man during photoshoot at the Camp Nou Credit: x 7 Lucia lends Marcus a hand by checking his shirt 7 Rashford during Barca's phone box stunt Credit: Facebook. He scored twice in the 5-1 victory at Old Trafford. They split in 2021 after Covid put a strain on their relationship but reconciled the following year. In February 2022, they were seen at the world premiere of Amazon Prime documentary 'Rooney' at HOME cinema in Manchester. Three months later, he proposed to Lucia after a romantic meal at celebrity restaurant Catch LA in West Hollywood, California. He got down on one knee and handed her a £250,000 engagement ring, posting a picture on Instagram of them kissing. Behind them was a large heart made from white flowers. Beneath the picture was the date and a love heart emoji. Lucia, who graduated with first class honours in Advertising and Brand Management, was a regular in the stands at Old Trafford. But in June 2023, sources said Rashford and the former Manchester Metropolitan University student had split after he was seen with a model outside a hotel in Miami. 7 Sources said Rashford and Lucia had split in June 2023 Credit: Getty She was later identified as personal trainer Courtney Caldwell. In November 2023, Rashford and Lucia were seen having dinner at a restaurant in Manchester. He was briefly linked to model and former Love Island contestant Grace Jackson last year, but the relationship ended in December. Back in Spain, meanwhile, Rashford is expected to be on 15 per cent less than the £315,000-a-week he was paid at Man United. He spent the second half of last season at Aston Villa after Amorim made it plain he would not be part of his plans for United's future. Barcelona almost signed Rashford in January, a move the star said he wanted to go through. After the deal was finally signed on Wednesday, club president Joan Laporta said: 'We are very happy because a player of great quality is coming, at a great age. 'We have him as strong as a rock. He came in very motivated.'
