Our autumn outfit inspiration is coming in thick and fast at the moment, and the latest look we can’t get enough of comes courtesy of Georgia Toffolo. The former Made in Chelsea star shared one of newest purchases on Instagram, with the Mint Velvet Brown Corduroy Midi Dress a great choice for autumn.
The dress is ideal for colder climates because of its fitted midi length and brown cord material. It also looks great with ballet flats and trainers. The £150 dress is currently out in all other sizes, with the exception of 14 and 16; therefore, we’ll opt for the more affordable Cotton Rich Corduroy Belted Midi Shirt Dress from Sosander.

This autumn, Georgia Toffolo’s UGG ballet flats keep your feet warm and stylish.
The Sosander Midi Shirt Dress is available at Marks & Spencer for £85, making it £65 less than the Mint Velvet version. It’s a lighter shade than Toff’s dress, coming in a light neutral greige colour, but has a similar fitted body that’s tailored at the waist for an ultra-flattering fit.
It has a collared neckline, a detachable wide belt around the waist, and a shirt-dressing aesthetic. We all know how crucial it is when a dress has pockets, so we included patch pockets on the chest and two side pockets.
The corduroy material is great for autumn and winter, helping keep you that little bit warmer and cosier than a typical cotton dress, and the cuffed long sleeves give you a little versatility when it comes to styling. The Sosander Midi Shirt Dress currently only has one review at M&S, which says: “Bought on sale, otherwise would be too expensive for such a dress. Slightly stretchy fabric, which is comfy, but metal bits finish could be better. Washed it before first wear and it kept shape very well.”
Sizes 12 to 20 of the Midi Shirt Dress are currently out of stock, with sizes 6 to 10 also currently out of stock. However, we also discovered the Amanda Cord Midi Dress, which is a fantastic purchase from Boden.

It is available in three lengths, three colors, and a rich chocolate brown shade, but sizes are quickly selling out in this style as well. Hobbs’ Combs Dress is now cheaper from £159 to £69, has a similar flattering silhouette and brown shade, and is made of a straightforward lyocell blend material.

The lack of qualified teachers in Nigeria is one of the reasons why the country’s educational standards have fallen, according to the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria (TRCN).
In honor of 2025 World Teachers Day, Dr. Ronke Soyombo, the council’s chief executive officer, Dr. Ronke Soyombo, made the announcement on Monday as a guest on Channels Television’s The Morning Brief.
While discussing the theme of this year’s “Recasting Teaching As A Collaborative Profession,” Dr. Soyombo noted that there were also those who had genuine interest in the field but who were unable to enroll because of their qualifications.
She claimed that the Council is currently addressing the profession’s teacher shortage.
“The profession has a lot of unqualified teachers,” says the director. We have those instructors in classrooms, but private schools, particularly, lack such qualifications.
It’s one thing to say you’ve been to a teacher’s college, but it’s another thing to be able to narrow it down to the students’ needs, to soothe their own. Because teachers don’t want to attend public schools, they need to be addressed, and as soon as the accelerated program is available, that will encourage this problem. And their lack of education degrees is what keeps them.
“We currently have 1.4 million teachers enrolled with the TRCN, and we want to reach 20 million in the next two years.” We have done a number of things to digitize our systems so that more people can register.
Every teacher has a unique gift, according to the saying “everyone has one.” However, we are encouraging everyone to plan lessons and do so in education.
You might have three teachers teaching a certain year group, but if you work together and organize the lessons, you’ll probably come up with something more interesting than what you’d get from doing it alone.
It is crucial that we impart the spirit of collaboration to our children, even if you also consider the 21st-century education itself.
“We must permit our kids to work with groups of people with different abilities. This year, teachers are eager to see how they can improve collaboration in their institutions.
Teachers can visit other schools to see which ones are doing well and apply the best practices to their own schools, as well.

Senator Oluremi Tinubu, the First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, praised teachers around the world on Sunday, urging them to put their feet again to combat the persistent global teacher shortage.
Teachers were referred to as “true heroes,” shaping minds, nurturing dreams, and guiding generations, according to Tinubu.
In addition to praising the country’s teacher shortages, Soyombo also praised the government’s efforts to combat the menace.
There is no denying that there are teachers shortages, so what we are doing with this particular government is to advance the development of a professional education diploma. Now is the time for those who don’t have access to it. We’re accelerating the course for experienced teachers until they are six months old so they can start getting experience. In the classroom, there will be enough hands, hopefully.
Because people are now eager to work in the field, “we will have enough teachers entering the field.”
The first award for physiology or medicine will be announced on Monday, beginning a week of eager anticipation for the Nobel Prize 2025.
The full schedule, which runs from October 6 through October 13, plots a quick succession of announcements, beginning with medicine, then moving on to physics, chemistry, literature, peace, and finally the economics prize on Monday.
What can you expect from this year’s Nobel Prizes, as well as the full schedule, as well as the full details.
The Nobel Prize is what?
Alfred Nobel, a Swedish chemist, engineer, and industrialist best known for discovering dynamite, was the creator of the Nobel Prize, a collection of the most prestigious international awards.
Nobel left the majority of his fortune to fund annual prizes in his 1895 will, honoring those who “have given the greatest benefit to humankind” in the previous year.
For outstanding achievements in the fields of physics, chemistry, medicine, literature, and peace, the first Nobel Prizes were given in 1901.
The Prize in Economic Sciences was established in 1968 by Sweden’s central bank, Sveriges Riksbank, bringing the total number of categories to six.
What is the prize money for the Nobel Prizes?
The Norwegian Nobel Committee (for peace), the Swedish Academy of Sciences (for physics, chemistry, and economics), the Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institutet (for medicine), and the Swedish Academy (for literature) are among the organizations that award prizes.
The Nobel Foundation, which oversees Nobel’s endowment, awards each laureate with a gold medal, a diploma, and cash prizes. The recipients have a chance to become famous overnight, with prize money of 11 million Swedish kronor ($1.2 million) being awarded this year.
On December 10, the anniversary of Nobel’s passing in 1896, the awards are formally presented.
What is the schedule for the Nobel Prizes this year?
The announcements will begin on Monday, October 6, and will end on October 13 a week later.
Monday, October 6: Medicine or physiology?
The Nobel Forum in Solna, close to Stockholm, and the Karolinska Institutet, Wallenbergsalen, announced the news.
Tuesday, October 7: Physics
Stockholm’s Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences made the announcement.
Chemistry on Wednesday, October 8th.
Stockholm’s Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences made the announcement.
Thursday, October 9: Literature
Stockholm’s Swedish Academy made the announcement.
Friday, October 10, Peace
The Norwegian Nobel Committee Chair made an announcement at the Norwegian Institute.
The Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Alfred Nobel’s honor on October 13
Stockholm’s Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences made the announcement.
At a bilateral dinner with other secretaries at the White House in Washington, DC on July 7, 2025, US President Donald Trump received a nomination letter after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (not pictured) announced his nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize.
What is anticipated to win the prizes this year?
For this year’s Nobel Prize in Medicine, speculation is rifling over hormones that control appetite.
Scientists behind the development of the hormone glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) are regarded as the frontrunners because there are more than a billion people in the world who are obese. Their discoveries transformed global treatment strategies, including Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro, to a new class of antiobesity and diabetes medications.
Jens Juul Holst, Joel Habener, Daniel Drucker, and Svetlana Mojsov, who were key players in the 1980s’ discovery and development, are said to be the likely honorees. Other researchers credit Japanese researchers Kenji Kangawa and Masayasu Kojima with their work on ghrelin, a hormone that increases appetite and might serve as a “bookend” to earlier discoveries like the 1994 leptin discovery.
Beyond medicine, there are some well-known physicists who are interested in metamaterial advancements, such as British physicist John Pendry’s work on the so-called “invisibility cloak,” a technique for moving electromagnetic fields around objects.
Why is this year’s Nobel Peace Prize closely watched?
Conflict is rife all over the world, including the ongoing genocide in Gaza and the growing humanitarian crisis in Ukraine, as well as civil wars and political repression in a number of nations.
However, Donald Trump, the president of the United States, has been the subject of some overblown headlines and debates about the Nobel Peace Prize this year, with some claiming to deserve it for “ending seven wars.”
Trump stated to delegates at the UN that “everyone believes that I should receive the Nobel Peace Prize.” Given that Israel had ended its two-year-long conflict in Gaza, Trump once more asserted that he “deserved” to win the victory on September 30.
However, experts have noted that he has a slim chance of succeeding. According to experts, the Norwegian Nobel Committee typically concentrates on the preservation of peace, the advancement of international fraternity, and the quiet work of institutions that advance those objectives.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Pakistan’s government are among the nominees for Trump this year, even though both were submitted after the award’s 2025 deadline.
One of the Nobel Prize-winning organizations has also reaffirmed the president’s political interference in academic freedom.
The Trump administration’s changes were reckless, according to Ylva Engstrom, vice president of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which administers the prizes for chemistry, physics, and economics. In an interview with the Reuters news agency, she said, “I think it can have devastating effects, both short and long term.” One of the pillars of the democratic system is “academic freedom.”
However, Engstrom does not sit on any of the three committees that will decide whether to award the chemistry, physics, or economics prizes.

What takes place during the Nobel Prize ceremony?
The Nobel Prizes are formally presented at twin ceremonies in Stockholm and Oslo on December 10, the anniversary of Nobel’s passing.
Sweden’s royal family attends the Stockholm ceremony, where Nobel Prize winners in physics, chemistry, medicine, literature, and economic sciences receive their medals and diplomas from the king of Sweden.
The Oslo City Hall honors Nobel’s wish for the Oslo Peace Prize to be awarded there. The Norwegian Nobel Committee chair presents the Nobel Peace Prize in honor of Nobel’s request.
The Nobel medal, diploma, and cash award are presented to each winner on a specially designated stage. Committee chair speeches that emphasize the significance of their discoveries or contributions are also presented at the ceremony.
More than 1, 000 guests, including royals, diplomats, scientists, and former Nobel laureates, are invited to the lavish Nobel Banquet at Stockholm’s City Hall after the event is broadcast internationally.
Who won these awards last year?
The discovery of microRNAs, tiny RNA molecules that control gene expression after transcription, earned them the 2024 Nobel Prize in Medicine.
The prize was presented to John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton in physics for their pioneering work that laid the foundations of contemporary machine learning and artificial neural networks. While Hopfield’s models in the 1980s made connections between computation and neuroscience, Hinton’s work revolutionized deep learning, enabling improvements in natural language processing, artificial intelligence (AI) systems, and image recognition.
David Baker, Demis Hassabis, and John M. Jumper each received the prize in chemistry for their contributions to computational modeling’s ability to predict and design protein structures. Hassabis and Jumper from Google’s DeepMind were recognized for creating AlphaFold, the AI system that predicted nearly all known protein structures with unprecedented accuracy, while Baker was honored for developing algorithms that enable scientists to design new proteins with specific functions.
Han Kang, a South Korean author known for her eerie explorations of violence, identity, and collective memory, won the prize in the literature category. Han, who is best known internationally for her novels The Vegetarian and Human Acts, was cited for “her intense poetic prose that confronts historical traumas and exposes the fragility of human life.”
Nihon Hidankyo, the Japan Confederation of A- and H-bomb Sufferers Organizations, was honored for its decades-long effort to end nuclear weapons and preserve the testimony of Hiroshima and Nagasaki survivors.
