When winter’s grey days and long nights set in, the desire for comfort becomes almost irresistible.
Suddenly, cosy nights on the sofa feel like the ultimate luxury, and slipping into a pair of soft cashmere socks becomes a small but wonderful indulgence. Craving the cosier things in life, I've been looking for stylish ways to add extra comfort to my day. Thick knits and fuzzy accessories have been my go-to so far, but Sydney Sweeney has just reminded me of the ultimate comfort-dressing piece that always looks chic.
Stepping out in a beige Fair Isle knit, Sweeney channelled a cosy look with a polished edge. The intricate Fair Isle detailing that traced the neck of the knit was arranged in a colourful pattern and featured crystal embroidery throughout, making it elevated whilst comfortable and ideal for a chilly winter night.
On Sydney Sweeney: Gucci Norwegian Wool Jacquard Sweater (£1750)
Sweeney paired the Gucci knit with a pair of straight-leg leather trousers, adding a sleek and structured element with a beautiful contrast of fabrics, giving the look a chic, evening-ready energy.
With a classic pattern and cosy fit that feels both put-together and relaxed, it's easy to see why Fair Isle knits are having a moment right now. And whilst Sweeney's leather trousers are perfect for dressing it up, the classic jumper will also pair well with jeans and will look even chicer over a white dress once the weather starts to warm.
