The slightest mention of knitwear can go two ways: the super-expensive, ultra-luxe, break-yer-bank kind, or the put-a-smile-on-yer-face, pocket-friendly kind. And that’s more than enough hyphenation to shake a stick at!
Being advocates of any wardrobe investment that adds to our style without forcing our finances into a (self-inflicted) drought, we’ve tracked down the hottest knitwear buys that’ll keep you on-trend, as well as on budget.
What’s the key to snapping up an expensive looking knit at a fractional price, you ask?
1. Opt for wool blends that include the more luxe variety such as Angora,Cashmere and Merino for a softer, less ‘synthetic’ feel.
2. Adding a dash of print and a smattering of embellishment will update a budget buy, and allow for versatility when dressing ‘up’ your look.
Cosy up in our stylish budget knitwear picks for winter, and revel in the delight of an increased Starbucks budget (…ours is a decaf soya latte to go, in case you were wondering)- thanks to some savvy spending! You can thank us later.
