Jump into warm festive sparkles

Wow it's been a whole two months since my last post - I am slacking. But I have a sort of excuse - I'm back at uni in London so my schedule consists of more than just lie-ins, watching tv and cruising the interweb now - lectures appear somewhere in the midst as well...


Anyway I thought I'd talk about the jumper with embellishment (mostly in the form of sequins) trend that is emerging. I first noticed it a couple of months ago when I saw one in H&M but unfortunately I was only idling some time away until I had to catch a train and didn't have time to try it on and possibly purchase said item - but it was nice anyway, and I regretted not buying it because next time I looked it had already gone and H&M don't sell online either.


Anywho, after this incident I have noticed more and more long, snuggly jumpers (perfect for the nippy weather obv) shrouded in a sequined or some sort of sparkled design, often draping over one shoulder or around the neckline, or in an emblazoned emblem on the front. I can't find any examples of celeb-wearing for this trend really, but I've scoured the shopping sites for some pictures and here we go:





























The left is from asos.com and costs £45 which is a a little steep, but not too bad for a warm jumper that you know will be well made and can also be worn dressed up or down. The right is from dorothyperkins.com and is £10 cheaper than the asos one but maybe not as stylish.


There are loads about in high street shops, so the choice is endless, if only I could have that H&M one though....
