Long roll neck jumper to wear with leather leggings

30 replies

trumpisaflump · 26/10/2019 07:56

I've been on the look out for a grey wool roll neck jumper (long to cover my bum) to wear with my black pleather leggings in the winter but no luck. Any recommendations? I had a lovely Boden one last year but it's shrunk now and while I'll still wear it with jeans I'd love a new one to wear with leggings. Thanks x

I'm going to bump this as I've tried a few jumpers but nothing covers my crotch and bum! I've got a long body. Anyone? Thanks

Have a look on New Look. Loads on there.

H&M have some nice grey jumpers in at minute.

This is exactly what I want too, long, Soft, a bit slouchy. Years ago I had a french connection cashmere and silk mix one and I’ve been trying to find something so perfect again.

ButtonMoonLoon · 06/11/2019 10:28

Matalan!
I'm wearing a black one over leggings today :)

Sooverthemill · 06/11/2019 11:54

I'm seriously considering these if I keep my faux leather leggings
or this
or maybe

Baukjen also have some lovely ones but more expensive

If you've a healthy budget, Celtic & Co have lovely ones, though they don't seem to be doing much in grey this season. Pure wool, made in GB...

Arket knitwear is lovely quality. There's usually a 10% newsletter sign up code.

Not roll neck exactly, but Cos knitwear is also good quality

I would have also suggested Celtic and Co but a PP already has. Best quality knitwear for a decent price (yes for pure wool, that is what you need to pay). Lasts for years

Thanks everyone. I'm in work at the moment and the signal is rubbish so can't open the links! I'll have a look tonight. I had actually ordered the Woolovers one and it's almost perfect but just not long enough to cover my crotch Blush It's so soft and lovely though!
I would love a proper wool or cashmere one so want to steer clear of H&M or Matalan. I find non wool ones cold and scratchy!

Whistles have 30% off knitwear at the moment. I’ve just received a long cashmere jumper from the H&M Premium range. It’s beautiful, I would recommend looking on the website, not sure it’s available in stores. Mine was £99 but it will last forever.

trumpisaflump · 06/11/2019 22:01

Thanks everyone. All the links look nice (especially the H&M premium range! However I'm looking for light grey and don't see any) I like the Celtic & Co one but prob a bit too slouchy in that I won't be able to fit a wool coat on over the top. I'll keep looking.....

@ShamefulBlanket the Me&em ones look absolutely gorgeous but bloody hell they're a fortune! I like the Arket ones too. My problem is I think I've got a really long body so will need a super long jumper to cover the wobbly bits.

Baukjen do a good longer length roll neck:

I have a black version and love it, though it has pulled a bit.

Ponks · 06/11/2019 23:16

Ps it's pricy but there is a 25% off code knocking around somewhere

QueenOfOversharing · 06/11/2019 23:27

I like Hush - they do longline long sleeve T-shirts that are great, and I'd probably try something like this, but it's darker than you want, I think. www.hush-uk.com/clothing/jumpers-cardigans/ada-tunic-dress-charcoal-marl-gun-metal.htm

trumpisaflump · 07/11/2019 07:16

@QueenOfOversharing and @Ponks they both look very promising thanks! I'll give the Baukjen one a go as I prefer the colours then if they are still too short I'll try the Hush one. Thanks.

Have a look at And Other Stories too. They h e something similar sounding

This kind of thing...

Long roll neck jumper to wear with leather leggings
trumpisaflump · 07/11/2019 09:24

I saw that one too @Daria32 but I'm planning on wearing the leather leggings and roll neck during the day into town etc in the winter so I'd need to wear maybe a camel wool coat over the top. I don't think I'd fit those sleeves into a wool coat. Gorgeous jumper though!

I think if you are tall or have a long torso sweater dresses sit at a better place than the shorter versions. I tried this one in phase eight, it draped beautifully and sat at just the right place but I am not sure ice blue is for me. 20% off at the moment.

Oh that's lovely @Alwayscheerful. I know what you mean about the colour. I like ice blue but maybe light grey would be nicer.

Bought one of the H&M ones, they are massively wide. Not in proportion to length (which does cover bum 👍) Absolutely huge infact, and I bought an XS.

trumpisaflump · 10/11/2019 12:08

Update in case anyone is interested 😁 I bought the Baukjen one and while it's gorgeous and a perfect length I think it's just too thick and warm. If I wear it out shopping/semi smart, I'll be boiling going in and out of shops. It's a proper winter jumper which seems too nice to cover under a winter coat but too warm to wear indoors. I might just keep the Woolovers one as it's much thinner.

@trumpisaflump just for a moment I thought the model had a bare bottom, how did you find the length flump?
