One of the things I have wanted for this winter was another Jaeger jumper/knit. I already own one, which I got last year and it was one of my favourite jumpers which I have. This year I have bought loads of knits and jumpers from brands like Gant, Hugo Boss and Mango, and here are the two I got from Jaeger.

This red knit is 100% pure cashmere is is super soft. It is amazing, It is the first 100% cashmere thing which I have had, and it is so soft it feels like it could fall apart in your hands (but doesn’t! ) I think I have 3 red knits now, I will need a new colour

So I got my order from Urban Outfitters, and picked up a couple of things. I got myself a new cricket jumper for spring, a t-shirt and they had some Love heart stampers, so I bought some on impulse

A Dark grey t shirt from Cheap Monday, with a black skull logo. This is a nice soft feeling t-shirt, and is quite a timeless Cheap Monday design, since it uses their skull trademark logo.

So I got my delivery from House Of Fraser, and here are the things which I picked up. I got myself a knit, two shirts and three pairs of boxer shorts. They are by Calvin Klein and He by Mango, and 2 pair of the boxers are Bjorn Borg.

Three pairs of boxers. The Calvin Klein were a real bargain, around £9, they usually cost around £20. The Bjorn Borg were £28 for the 2 pair pack. I really love CK and Bjorn Borg boxers, I have so many.

Hey blog

So today I have had a busy old day. They said the other week that it was “the busiest online shopping day” but today was my busiest at work Lots of work, web work, emails etc. But only a week or so to go and that is that for the year

Today I got some things from H&M, 3 pieces for under £50, how amaing, I love H&M

A long sleeve black t shirt. This is made of strech cotton so it really nice and comfortable.

A red cardigan. This is really cool, knit cardigan with black buttons which add contrast.

Black V Neck knit. This is once again really nice, and made from Merino wool. It will look good with a shirt underneath

I have just updated the blog software and this is the first post, so I will have to make sure everything is working properly. I am also going to be adding a few things “behind the scenes” to the blog, which should make it faster and more optimised.

I just love that place! I have only been buying from H&M for a few months, and I have to say I love all the stuff they do, at really amazing prices! H&M is so fashionable and cheap, definitely high street fashion, but H&M is “cool” as opposed to others.

They have a sale on which I blogged about, I got one thing from the sale, and others at full price. I did want a jumper, but as soon as I tried to get it, it was gone! So I bought 3 things, total spend, £37!

Red cardigan. £7.49 this was on sale. I have a green one, I think that these are the same cardigans but now they are on sale. I love the green one, really good quality, the full price was still cheap at only £15.

Black long sleeve t shirt. Full price, but at £10 there is not much to complain about. I obviously can’t speak for the quality yet.

V Neck jumper in black, full price at £19.99. This is a fine knit jumper and it looks really nice, and I hope it is. It is available in a few colours, so when I get it if I am pleased I may order a few more.

I really like the boxer shorts, scarf and cable knit jumper. The Peace T Shirt is also cool, but I think it was more of a summer tee, maybe they will bring them back next year.

• Boxer Shorts by Adrian Hammond, 2 pack - €38.95  
• Adrian Hammond Red Hoodie – €78.95
• Somewear Peace Logo T Shirt – €46.95
• Karlek Top – €20.95
• Morris Empire Cardigan – €191.50
• Morris Red Scarf – €83.95
• H&M Cable knit jumper in dark grey £29.99

All these apart from the H&M jumper are from Nelly.com

Winter is definitely here, and I have been looking at knits quite a bit, I am really starting to like them. A cashmere is a premium knit, and is known to be a very expensive item to buy.

I bought myself a Jaeger knit last winter, and it is really nice. Brilliant quality, good fit, and feels really nice. I have now found some really nice Jaeger knits which look really good, and at the moment they are on sale.

We have the pure cashmere knits, which are currently down from £180 to £104 which is a great price for a big branded pure cashmere knit. There are V necks and round necks available in a variety of colours.

Some really nice things there, above is a mix of the V-neck and round neck variations in pure cashmere.

If that is a little too expensive, or you do not want 100% cashmere, you can get a cashmere blend which is a mix of wool and cashmere. This is a little less expensive, £80 down from £130.

All of these are currently available to buy from Jaeger on their website. I may go into their store to have a look around, since we have a dedicated Jaeger store in Newcastle now

A couple of jackets and knits from H&M which I think look good…

• Grey fine knit jumper, £19.99
• Dark grey cable knit jumper £29.99
• Double breasted jacket, wool blend £49.99
• Double hooke eye fasteners jacket £39.99

What do you think? I really like the first knit jumper and the double breasted jacket, I need a warm smart jacket for this winter and I think it would be a good addition and look good for going out.

 All available to buy at H&M

As I have blogged before, I do like cricket jumpers at the moment. I had a big look round for one a while back, and couldnt seem to find one I like, but I eventually did.

Now I have found these from Tommy Hilfiger which I do like. They are also on sale at the moment, down from £100 to only £70.

I like the white, but also noticed they do it in blue too. Maybe its a good buy for the autumn or those cooler summer days. Cable knits are very popular at the moment

They are currently on offer at House Of Fraser, you can see them here.

I really do like the white, along with a Tommy Hilfiger style emblem on the breast.
