Red has undoubtedly been the colour of the season, and if you’re on the hunt for a perfect piece of red knitwear to pair with your winter coats and jeans, allow me to draw your attention to Boden’s offering. But before I get into the technicalities of my new favourite cardigan, let me point out that Boden currently has a sale on its new-in buys - so you’ll get 15% off the transitional weather-friendly pieces you see in this article. 

Boden is one of team MC UK’s go-to shops for high quality, timeless clothing, so whenever the brand has a sale on, it’s a cause for celebration. A huge selection of gorgeous new pieces has just been stocked on the website, from intricate knits to linen pieces for summer, and the best thing is they’re all 15% off right now. There’s no code required - the discount will be applied automatically at the checkout. 

Now, onto my dream cardigan. This is she:

This cashmere cardigan comes in the perfect statement red shade, is lightweight and comfortable (my skin is pretty sensitive, and this doesn’t feel at all scratchy) and is also perfect for layering. Seriously - whether you pair it with denim or dark grey tailoring, whether you wear it buttoned up over layers or unbuttoned over your favourite spring dress, the styling possibilities are endless. 

This cardigan’s real selling point, however, lies in its subtle elevated details - like the intricate knitted design on the cuffs and hem. The reinforced panel behind the buttons means that the material won’t stretch as you wash and wear it (and trust me, you’ll be wearing this a lot), so a lot of care and attention has really gone into the details with this timeless piece.

Oh, it’s also made from ethically sourced 100% cashmere (which is machine washable, FYI) and it’s now available for just over £100 thanks to the 15% discount. If I didn’t own it already, I’d be racing you to the checkout.

As I mentioned earlier, this chic red cardigan isn’t the only product in the Boden sale - all the current new-in pieces are also included, and I’ve rounded up my top selections for you to shop below…
