We’ve spent the past few weeks not entirely sure what season we’re currently living in, with unpredictable forecasts and fluctuating temperatures proving to be a sartorial headache. However, it seems the cold weather has well and truly arrived, bringing with it a sense of clarity to our wardrobes. A coat is now mandatory, a scarf ideal, and footwear options limited to those that will stop your toes freezing off.
As for our actual ensembles, we’re relying on one specific tried-and-tested formula to see us all the way through fall, winter, and beyond. We're talking about the classic pairing of a cardigan and jeans. More versatile than a sweater, a knitted cardi is our knitwear hero item.
A block-colored fitted style adds instant polish, delicate embroidery or embellished buttons can bring femininity, a contrasting collar oozes cool, and a chunky oversized number delivers maximum comfort. While you no doubt have a cardigan or two already in your collection, you may be looking to replace or expand your collection with a fresh design. Luckily, this season there are plenty of elevated cardigans worth your time, and top of our wish list is Zara’s lace-trim cardigan.
Available in two different colorways—beige and gray—each design features delicate lace trim detailing along the entire edging. It's subtle, but more than enough to set this style apart while nodding to this season's lace trend. Alexandria Dale is the Digital Fashion Writer at Cosmopolitan UK.
