The Kooples silk shirt for £12
Brora fair isle cardigan £8- This in another colour way www.broraonline.com/uk/wool-fair-isle-cardigan-topaz-slc8232hm2363?queryID=e2b4e5c75c383e4cf0842b3c260ac0f6

I passed up a Brora cashmere cardigan for the same price that I bought the wool cardigan for. I also tried a Baukjen shirt because it was too big and too fussy.
