What to wear with your cosy knit?
Absolutely anything goes, hun. We especially love a nice, warm jumper layered over a midi dress or a skirt for a "I work in fashion!!" aesthetic.
You can also pair your new jumper with a pair of jeans (we love mom!) and some white chunky trainers for a paired-back kinda vibe.
If you're worried about your jumper's longevity now spring is approaching, please remind yourself 1) It's cold in the UK 98% of the time* 2) if Jane Fonda can re-wear her Oscars frock with no cares, you can re-wear your knitwear 3) everyone knows that price per wear for jumpers basically means it cost you 10p.
