Stay chic and cosy this Christmas with these non-ugly sweaters

Sweater weather

1/12

Sequin-cladded pieces, ruffled tops and festive frocks are our usual picks for the final glamorous days of the year. But what about those days when all you want to wear is a sweater and some jeans?

We’re not talking about the ones with snowmen and reindeer. If that’s your jam, no one’s stopping you! What we’re showing you are the chic sweaters that’ll keep you cosy yet fashionable during this rainy season.

The best thing about wearing sweaters, besides how obviously comfortable they are, is that they’re great for days when you’re winding down or when you’re hiding your food baby.  Whether you’re heading for a brunch date, travelling to a chilly place, or having a shopping date with your girls - these are the sweaters to wear.
