I must recommend to you again this red boyfriend sweater from Me + Em. It is on sale for £44 – half price! I have worn it a lot since getting mine a few months ago. I know this bright tomato red might seem a scary colour but in fact it is easy to wear and this red shade is about to be the new navy. Am I joking or not? Even I can’t decide. But it’s festive and cosy as a colour now and in the spring this would look great with box-fresh trainers and a green or yellow bag. There are still XS, S and M sizes left – sizing is generous – I am a 10-12 and take an S.
Although I am brave enough to wear tomato red, I am too shy to wear a leopard-print coat – but I do think they look absolutely terrific on other people – this one from Mango is on sale for £59.99, with plenty of sizes left. My friend Alice has one and always looks very chic in it and I saw a girl the other day wearing a denim button-through, a white t-shirt and a coat like this, with massive neon Chanel earrings and she looked amazing.

Excellent recommendation. I’m wearing my brown (nice sort of honey coloured brown, not horrid brown) version of that Me + Em jumper today and ever since my friend told me about this company a couple of years ago I’ve also bought it in navy blue (all cotton for spring/summer) and cream (10% cashmere). They are so versatile and comfortable.
