The Long Cardigan - One of Winter's Little Luxuries

For me, an oversized woollen cardigan conjures up images of a fireplace, loved ones and hot chocolate!

Imagine thick, woolly and warm, with cable detailing, tie waist and hood.

That's definitely the look to go for with this great Winter essential which can even be worn to work, with wide leg pants, a cap sleeve shirt and polished accessories.

To define shape, emphasise the waist with a tie belt and combine with skinny jeans or leggings or add a cardi to slim the silhouette of a pinafore or smock dress.

An oversized style can also look great with a short skirt and opaque tights.. Either ballet flats or boots add the final touch in footwear.

If you haven't added a new cardi to your winter wardrobe, take a look at these great possibilities:

The choice is endless and once you have found your favourite, you may not want to take it off!
