What's on your wish list for A/W?

[MilkThistle187]

I have a multitude of coats, cashmere, bags and boots, I still want to buy something

What's inspiring you this season?

YSL tartan scarf or BV cashmere scarf

Marant chess boots,

Cashmere cardigans. Hardly life changing but have always just brought cotton cardis. In john Lewis this weekend and saw a display of cashmere, wow so so soft.

Is mid price /cheap as in john Lewis/m&s/Boden cashmere any good? I can't stretch to the £100's of pounds real stuff.

Holger the pattern I want isn't in the sales

I need some fine knit short sleeved jumper and cardigans (okay Yes - Twin-Set. But in my defence, I'm middle-aged)

I like the Uniqlo jumper I bought last year but I'm a bit dubious about buying something dry-clean only.

Can I wash them if I do it really carefully?

I will have a look in H&M , I bought a chunky knit jumper but I like their fine knits, I need to see what I can pair up.

Holger - 20% off that M&S leather skirt today ...

Mad, oh no that's a shame. Which one is it?

Swim, ach! Alas it's a choice between the skirt and eating for the next two weeks...

Some cashmere left in the hobbs sale. I bought a long cardigan 50% off.

this is lovely!... only size 8 left though.
this is the one I got

thank you for the hobbs link. I have ordered a cardigan to see how I get on.

HelpMe I am a big cashmere fan and the John Lewis stuff I have is lovely, very good quality. I don't like M&S, it's too thin. Cashmere needs to be fuzzy IMO.

NO DO NOT NEED ANY MORE BECKSONDERGAARD SCARVES even though I think they make me look like a sexy capable Scandinavian drama lady.

Wantses (does not always equate to getses):

• North Face Arctic Parka
• Mulberry Tessie satchel in Oak
• big red cable Eric Bompard cashmere scarf (have the black one from last year and it is insanely snuggly)
• considering a black leather skirt, though need to find one that suits my, er, sturdy hips/thighs.

My hobbs cardigan has just arrived and it looks like the quality is good, but looks huge... I ordered a 12 even though I'm a 10 thinking that as it's a boyfriend style it would be fine but I'm not sure..... Will try it on at lunch time to see what it looks like.

Leedy my latest one just arrived today.

(Becksondergaard scarf, that is)

The blue grey camo one?

Boden cashmere is pretty decent, though the styles are often a bit odd (weirdly boxy jumpers, etc.). Agree that M&S isn't great.

If you feel like splashing out a bit, Eric Bompard does amaaaaaazing cashmere cardis that last forever:

thank you. My dad gave me his boden voucher o have used it towards a cardigan with the 20% off.

I will be looking to upgrade as long as I can cope with the washing and I don't get any reactions (can't wear lambswool due to allergies), so thank you for the link.
