It’s Bonfire Night on Saturday, a time when many of us will be wrapping up warm and braving the cold so that we can gather round an impressive pyre and gaze in awe at spectacular fireworks. While the temperature seems to be fairly mild at the moment, I have noticed a distinct chill setting in as soon as the evening comes, serving as a reminder that we are now rapidly approaching winter. Indeed with the clocks going back last weekend, we will very soon be counting down to Christmas!
Whether you are planning to attend a large fireworks display or create one in your own back garden, you might be thinking of what to wear in order to stay warm so that you last the duration and don’t miss the rocket finale. So I have picked out some of the new pieces from our recently-launched winter catalogue which will keep away the cold while you watch the show. For an added touch, as Bonfire Night is very much a British tradition, I thought I would shine the spotlight on Great British pieces…
Our Cosy Cocoon Cardigan is made from a sumptuous mix of Geelong and Angora so it is divinely soft and cosy. It is substantial enough to keep you warm without the need for a coat on milder nights and the neutral colour can be teamed easily with almost any shade…
The Boat Neck Slouch is a gorgeous jumper with extra details to make it really stand out. It is long enough to wear in the style of a jumper dress with a pair of leggings or thick tights (and your favourite sheepskin boots of course!). I love the striped hem, neck and cuffs as it makes this a really different yet very wearable piece…
Our Fairisle V Neck is a variation on our traditional V Neck Slouch which is one of our best sellers. The detail on the sleeves of this slouchy jumper gives it extra character and the soft linen colour is very flattering, especially against winter skin…
Of course you might also need some accessories to keep your extremities warm so you’ll be pleased to know that we have plenty to choose from. Sticking with the Fairisle theme, I recommend our adorable Cashmere Fairisle Fingerless Gloves (which keep your hands warm and your fingers free – ideal for holding sparklers!) and matching Cashmere Fairisle Beret… Made from 100% cashmere, these cute accessories will protect your head and hands from the cold so you can enjoy Bonfire Night without as much as a shiver.
At the time of writing all of the above items are in stock in all sizes so there is plenty of time to get your favourites for Bonfire Night. As we are starting to get very busy however, you might prefer to opt for Next Day Delivery option to guarantee it.
