Recommendations for longer length jumpers to wear when wfh with cord jeggings please. 5ft 7, age 53. Happy to spend up to £70 ISH. Looking for warm, cosy and long enough. Thanks

I was in tk maxx and in their dress section they had some lovely knitted/jumper dresses. Scoop and roll neck. Would come to a bit above the knee I reckon.

Uniqlo

I quite often but mens jumpers because they’re longer in the body than most womens jumpers. I can’t stand having a draughty midriff!

Woolovers. I have a cashmere one which was a bit over your budget (birthday present). It's thin but very warm. But there are plenty of others too.

Try Cos. Their non-Cashmere jumpers retail around £60-70 mark. They usually have good selection of longer length jumpers.

Thanks for the suggestions so far. Will try another online shop this evening and keep my fingers crossed.

This one from Celtic and co is lovely and long, I’m 5’5 and it comes two thirds of the way to my knees. I’ve got a couple and they’re lovely and warm as well.
I appreciate above your budget but FESTIVE21 does give £20 off so £89 not £109

Can I ask where you got cord leggings?!

PollyPeePants · 19/11/2021 13:53

As with The PP above I am thinking oooh cord leggings!!

Granny6435 · 19/11/2021 13:59

Cord leggings are from M and S.

Thanks, I’m going to check them out, I don’t know what I’m expecting but they sound warm!

Nearlyadoctor · 19/11/2021 19:51

@Granny6435 - yes they’ve washed fine, I have a hand wash cycle on my machine so use that.

How do you all stop knitted long jumpers/sweater dresses from static-stickimg to the leggings? I love the idea but in practice I find the tops never "flow" on me and it's all a bit sad :(

I find there is very little static if you wear natural fibres. It’s mainly acrylic that seems to cause static ime.

I always wear a toning longline vest under a jumper with leggings ..it covers the bum and I think works well as a layer, with shirts and shorter jumpers also.. Good places to buy them are Hush and Long Tall Sally
