With the cooler spring temperatures that we’ve been experiencing this week, I continue to make good use of the beloved knits from my collection (which, thanks to the pandemic, has grown to a decent size!). Being a self-proclaimed knitwear connoisseur, I know a good knit when I see one. And in recent weeks, I’ve been lucky enough to be sent some new-in knits from Everlane to try given all you lucky Northern Hemispherians are heading into the cooler season and we’re seeing lots of new styles hit the shelves! I spent the best part of autumn and winter wearing a knit with jeans or comfy trousers while working from home but they’re also integral in my cold weather outfits for the office tucked into tailored trousers or a pencil skirt.
When it comes to adding new sweaters and knitwear to my wardrobe, I prioritise natural fibres and stick to a relatively conservative colour palette (to get more bang for buck!). Cashmere is my favourite wool as it’s always chic and deliciously cosy but I also love merino wool for a lightweight and equally sophisticated option. So, as a public service to you (you’re welcome), I’m sharing with you three new-in knits that I think are deserving of your attention.
#1 – Cashmere Collared Sweater
Collared knit* (sz S), Everlane trousers* (sz 2, Short), Sarah Flint flats* (review and discount code here)
For a playful take on a basic cashmere knit, this collared sweater features a sweet Peter Pan collar, blouson sleeves and ribbed detailing. I’ve took a size S in the knit, opting for a more relaxed fit, but would have also been happy in a size XS as it’s already a relaxed and rounded cut. It’s the perfect Zoom top, as the collar spruces up any outfit, but provides me with the cosy comfort that I really love when working from my desk at home.

#2 – Cashmere Polo

If I had to pick a favourite of the three, this would be it. I love the olive-toned hue and the design features that make this polo knit so effortless – a buttonless plunge, subtle rib detailing in a relaxed shape. I’ve got a size S in this knit and it’s a relaxed fit on me. Another perfect candidate for a WFH day but I’ve also worn this on the weekends on family walks and lounging around the house with the kids playing Nintendo!

#3 – Felted Merino Half-Zip Sweater
Half-zip sweater* (sz S), Everlane trousers* (sz 2, Short), Sarah Flint flats* (review and discount code here)
This zip-up is reminiscent of my fleece sweaters I constantly wore in high school – but like, waaaay better. It’s relaxed and cosy but it looks and feels incredibly luxe. I’m a little disappointed that the knit arrived at the tail end of the cold weather here (the perks of opposite seasons 🙈) but I’m making the most of it while I can! I took a size XS and it fits me really well (and is still nice and oversized on me).
