Winter Warmer

We can't avoid it any more. Summer is long dead and it is now blooming cold here in London town. Bye bye lovely summery dresses, and hello lush layers and warm woolly jumpers!

Now we have moved and packed all the summer tops and skirts away, out come the mohair, cashmere and wool (and super static acrylic!) jumpers. Our jumper rail is topped up daily as customers empty it trying to stay warm, and look just as awesome as ever.

We think this jumper is a little bit special though.

Another lovely piece by Dries Van Noten, we have had fun styling this up many ways but decided that just on its own is fine to show it off at its best.

The loose knit, funnel necked jumper is mainly gunmetal grey, but with the smatterings of various colours in wools of varying thickness, we agree that it is perfect for jazzing up a neutral outfit.
£55
Made from 100% wool, this 'medium' size 12 (eur 40) has a small, small amount of stretch, but we don't think it would fit a 14.

Over a crisp white shirt, with a turned up collar and navy or beige trousers/skirt is our best way of wearing it, but why not layer it with another thin knit jumper to be super warm? Or throw it over some jeans and t-shirt for a casual outfit.

Come on winter, do your worst. We are all designered up in wool!

Bye for now
BG
