‘I love my sparkly £29 M&S jumper that’s the perfect Christmas Day outfit’

With December not far away now, shoppers have been flocking to Marks and Spencer to get their hands on one of their stylish Christmas jumpers.

The British high street retailer is a regular haunt for its stylish clothing collections all year round, and its collection of festive jumpers have certainly proven popular among fashion fans in need of something chic and affordable.

While I do like fun, novelty jumpers for the holidays, this Christmas I have been on the lookout for a knit that is stylish with a touch of sparkle to match the glitz of the season. It also helps if it is cosy and warm.

One such jumper that shoppers have recently been praising is the £29.50 Sequin Star Crew Neck Jumper, which has an average 4.5 out of five star rating for its style, comfort and “beautiful” sequin design. Some customers have said that it “caught their eye” as soon as they were in the store.

Since this fairly simple, yet chic jumper, looked like the perfect Christmas Day outfit, I decided to head into my local Marks and Spencer store to see if I could find it.

The Sequin Star Crew Neck Jumper

Browsing the womenswear section, it’s hard not to find the Christmas jumpers, as they are right at the front of the store. In fact, the £29.50 jumper I was looking for was right next to a couple of other chic options, such as this £25 Sequin Slogan Crew Neck Jumper.

I did end up opting to try on the Sequin Slogan Crew Neck Jumper, also priced at £29.50, as it looked like a classy, white jumper that could be worn well with a sequin skirt on Christmas Day.

In the fitting rooms, I slipped the Sequin Star Crew Neck Jumper over my head and found myself agreeing with the rave reviews online that mentioned it was “as soft as cashmere”. Unlike a few knits that can be itchy, this one was soft to the touch and lightweight enough that it could be layered well with a thick top underneath when it is cold, whilst also being nice on its own when the weather is milder.

I also really liked the fit and length, as I purchased a medium and it came down to my hips without ever feeling to snug or form fitting. This is something I can imagine will come in handy during the festive period, where I will probably be eating and drinking my weight in festive snacks and drinks.

Meanwhile, the length means that it can be tucked quite well into your favourite skirt this season. Since, I am a huge fan of long, floaty skirts, this bodes well for me and means that I can style it with pretty much my entire wardrobe this December.

I also have to admit that I am a fan of the sequin star design. It’s glitzy and fun for the season, but its also quite minimal and will add a touch of glamour to your December wardrobe without being over the top.

Meanwhile, I did find that the Sequin Slogan Crew Neck Jumper, which was also another classy option, was a little bit lighter than the previous jumper I tried on. In the fitting room, I found that, while still luxuriously soft, it was a little thinner and felt more like a cardigan.

As stylish as it was, and I really debated both jumpers for a hot minute, but I ended up taking the Sequin Star Crew Neck Jumper home for a lot of reasons, namely its slightly thicker material that means it will be ideal for keeping snug in the winter.

What have other shoppers said about the jumper?

On the Marks and Spencer website, the £29.50 jumper has a 4.5 out of five star rating based on multiple reviews from fashion fans.

One happy customer wrote: “Beautiful jumper and great value. This instantly caught my eye in store, and it’s just as lovely on – a beautiful cloudy grey knit that feels as warm and soft as cashmere and drapes very nicely too, completed with pretty twinkly stars. Am sure I’ll get lots of wear out of it this winter.”

While a second praised: “Beautiful jumper and great value.

Am sure I’ll get lots of wear out of it this winter.”
