Hello dear friends, hope you are well
This jumper was originally purchased for our trip to England that we were planning to take in earlier this year, sometime around April. As we were just about to pay for our tickets, the wedding of Prince Charles and Camilla was announced and we immediately cancelled the trip. We knew that it was going to be a mayhem over there what with the multitude of people going to London, the rise of hotel prices, the security, the crowds etc. We are hoping to go next year.
One day when I was scaling through the Reiss website in search for a perfect jumper that not only would keep me warm but also look stylish during our holidaying in Britain. Typically, the price tags for their clothes is quite high but during the sale period you can score a really good bargain.
So far, I managed to acquire a woolen dress, a wrap around dress, a blouse and a pair of pants, all were on sale at one time or another. As I was scrolling through the images, one particular item caught my eye. It was a loos-fit cashmere jumper with a high roll-neck in a happy coral colour. The price was very reasonable and I ordered and paid for it.
When my purchased arrived, it looked even better in real life than on the screen. It is soft, warm, its high neck would give me the necessary protection from the wind and the cold so I don't need to wear a scarf and when I don't need to be all wrapped up, the neck could be easily rolled down.
We were rather upset that we had to cancel our British holiday but on a flip-side as our winter this has been quite cold so far, the jumper is on a high rotation in my wardrobe and I am very pleased that I have it.
And one more thing that I love about it is that it looks as good worn over black tights and sneakers for a Sunday casual look as when I am wearing it over a silk skirt and court shoes when I am out for drinks or in the office.
According to my sources, this particular jumper has been sold out, however there are plenty of similar looking items are on the web that are on sale at the moment. Check them out here and here.
Until then,
Anna
