Great for price.

Lovely navy top. Quite thick and contains wool so won’t be wearing just yet!! Good quality. Short and boxy but ok for me at 5’8. Will go with lots.

Lovely soft cardigan. Slightly shorter length. Found it very generous so had to return for a smaller size. Sleeves are just on elbow length for me.

Good price and lovely top!

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely elegant top Nice short warm material Can be worn on a warmer winter day in the office or on a cooler summer day will be lovely to dress up or dress down Great value and decent quality one gripe would be that i wished the buttons were more neutral/less conspicuous but this is a personal choice!
