Festive knitwear

Is it too early? I’m not sure, all I know is that I love this jumper. It’s my dream Sarah Lund knit, I must admit I was a bit unsure when I opened the packaging and it had a bit more ‘bling’ than I anticipated, but it’s a good amount and the perfect neckline more than makes up for it. 

Glasses: £98 (including lenses), Bailey Nelson. Jumper: £50, Asos. Jeans: Topshop (old). Bag: £115, Cambridge Satchel Company. 

This winter, I’m all about cosy knitwear – a decent chunky jumper will work hard for your wardrobe – wear with jeans for ease and then try with a dressy skirt for a Christmas party (I’ve been eyeing up this fringed pencil skirt from Asos for a while). I bought the jumper in a size up for an extra slouch, which is perfect.

Leather boots: £55, Asos

      Christmas jumpers for kids means you can go all out without looking silly yourself 😉
