It might be hot outside but the high street is all about autumnal fashion, and as any fashion editor knows, now is the time to stockpile your autumn wardrobe before it sells out. And top of the list for me? This chic M&S cardigan, which is so versatile - and excuse me, how expensive does it look? - that I'm predicting a sell out. Yes, it's great for autumn but its actually great for now too.
Called the ' Cloud-Yarn Textured Crew Neck Cardigan ', the texture is a little different to a cable or fine knit , and the crew neck is ideal for layering over statement collars or a roll neck. Available in grey too, its this deliciously decadent cappuccino shade that I've bought; I'll be wearing it now, slung over my shoulders with cream jeans and a white T-shirt, and for autumn, going all buttery shades and dark chocolate tones with this as the cherry on top. The statement buttons give it a real touch of luxury, and it looks so much pricier than the £35 price tag.
Available in sizes extra small to extra large, its already trending on M&S despite only appearing on the website this week. It'll be a great addition to your office wardrobe, as its simple touches like ribbed cuffs and two small pockets give it a smart twist. As well as wearing with jeans and trousers, I'd style it with the skirt shape of the moment, an ever-so-slightly A-line maxi skirt.
You could wear it with a white skirt, or to soften a black maxi. It'll look equally as good with a sequin skirt come Christmas, toning down.
