I feel the cold. Looking for a warm hoodie I can throw on in the evenings Not in the first flush of youth so I need something stylish and suitable for a woman of a certain age. Grey doesn’t Suit me but I like blues and soft pinks.

Please help me, I am not yet ready for care home couture just yet but also don’t want to look like I nicked my v young adult children’s clothes.

No such thing as a stylish hoodie Grin. Google oversize fleece hoodie and get you one of those! Absolute bliss.

Hush at John Lewis in Oatmeal might suit your colouring.

Did you want a zip?

Have a look at H&M or Weekday. Don't be put off by many of their other clothes being aimed at younger people - their hoodies are great for all ages!

Thanks for all the responses so far. I know stylish hoodie is a bit of a contradiction but I can’t do logos or anything too “young”
Not thought of H and M or Hush. Will 👀

Hi, have a look at the site "wear the stars." It's the hoody brand of an ex stylist who's a mum to older kids. They have blues and pinks. If you're on Instagram then she is amazing at showing you how to style hoodies for things like the school run/walks (amongst other things) on her page.

I love wear the stars, thank you. How do you find sites like this?

There are some nicely minimalist ones on the uniqlo site at the moment. If you're happy with ones without zips, I can confirm that these are very nice - quite long as well. www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/product/women-double-faced-stretch-sweat-hoodie-440052.html?dwvar_440052_color=COL65&dwvar_440052_size=SMA001&cgid=IDw-sweatshirts-and-hoodie

And their online delivery seems to be back to normal - there were complaints around Christmas that it was really slow, but my last parcel was v speedy..

Mint Velvet might fit the bill?

Sweatty Betty Escape, expensive but the sweatshirt equivellant of cashmere. here

M&S have some knitted hoodies which might be a nice alternative to sweatshirt fabric.

PenfoldPenny · 08/04/2021 18:06

H&M hoodies wash very well imho - both the gents and ladies ones. We've got a couple each of both and they havent bobbled at all despite a lot of washing. No logos on them either with a front pocket.
Hows that for a very practical sensible middle aged comment? :D

Plein Publique - a Dutch brand with excellent quality clothes, they have merino hoodies :)

Baukjen! I bought a long line soft blue hoodie recently and they also have pink. Not cheap but I've worn it a lot so worth it for me

justanothersugar · 08/04/2021 19:44

Has anyone tried Elsie’s attic for hoodies?

This is a lovely pale pink colour. It’s very good quality

bunny85 · 08/04/2021 20:43

I have one from Hollister and it's very warm and looks stylish

swizzlestix · 08/04/2021 21:33
