This is what I need for my winter wardrobe! Any tips? I'd don't mind spending a bit as I think I'll wear it a lot.

Thanks!

I like John Smedley and have a couple of men's sweaters which are lovely and slouchy although I think mine are a cashmere and silk mix 70/30 If I remember. Mine are about 5 years old and still look good but I've been v careful with them. I am veering back towards merino wool as it is less high maintenance and still looks good. Baukjen do lovely slouchy sweaters and I am sure their AW collection will have some goodies. N Peal is a lovely cashmere brand.
What colours are you thinking of?

J crew. I got a lovely grey one for £100 ish, from the outnet and the J Crew site has every colour going.

There's some in the sale section too.

Sounds lovely -£100 is bargainous for J Crew. I cannot wait for snuggly, slouchy autumnal clothes - spend the entire summer looking like a bag of spanners :)

I got the neon pink from the sale section last week for £112 ish with a discount code, I can't wait to wear it.
I look crap in summer clothes too :o

They are huge size wise though, I'm a 14/16 and have the medium.

The outnet has the actual measurements of each size, which is helpful.

Rosie you have just made me remember I need a navy knit. Now I am in my forties I cannot wear black near my face without major scarf accessorising. Keep popping in to TKMaxx if you are near one and can stand the hassle - there will be cashmere aplenty in the coming weeks (hopefully).
