I love knitwear, and I’m always searching for the next key piece to add to my wardrobe. Having spent more than my fair share of time scrolling through some of my favourite high-street brands’ websites, I’ve curated a small edit of a few new-season knitwear heroes I’m considering investing in this season.
Although I’ve seen plenty of worthy styles out there this month, I keep coming back to a simple yet perfectly chic crew-neck cardigan from H&M. Available in six colourways, this fine-knit cardigan looks well above its humble £16 price tag. Boasting a neat-fitting cut and a simple button fastening, the elegant knit offers endless styling options. Available in sizes XXS–4XL, I predict that it won’t be long until it’s been entirely swept up.
Below, I’ve created four outfits that champion the knit, so read on to discover every way I’d style it this winter.
4 WAYS TO WEAR H&M’S CHIC CARDIGAN
1. GREY CARDIGAN + TAILORED TROUSERS
Style Notes: A grey cardigan is a capsule wardrobe staple that will never let you down. To make it feel a little more elevated, pair it with tonal tailored trousers and accessorise with sleek, statement accessories.
