Shopped at La Redoute recently

I have mentioned how much I like La Redoute and their French style clothing and accessories previously, but now that it is winter, I decided that it was time to get some warm, yet timeless pieces again, and nobody does basic sweaters and cardigans in nice materials, like cashmere for a better price than La Redoute in my opinion, so of course it was my to go to place for warm purchases.

What I got was this:

A grey cashmere cardigan. I already had the black version of this, I got it last winter and was so happy with it that I decided to get another one, in another color. I think I might be getting more colors as well!

A grey cashmere cowl neck sweater. Because I need more cashmere in my closet, especially since I managed to ruin some pieces I had had for years last winter.

A navy striped sweater. Because I am into stripes at the moment and made a decision to get more navy pieces, as navy is truly a classic color, that I really like, but I feel like I don't have enough navy pieces as of yet.

If you are at all interested in La Redoute's products, I can really recommend giving them a try, as the shipping is really fast and their products very nice (qualitywise as well) indeed.

Stocking up on some basics

I think I mention this every time the sales roll by, so sorry for repeating myself, but it really is an excellent habit: stocking up on any item that is not so fun to buy, during the sales.

Since I recently discovered that French La Redoute ships to me (oh the joy!), I decided to take advantage of their sale in order to stock up some useful, yet unexciting basics:

A black blazer

And a black cashmere cardigan with mother of pearl buttons.

La Redoute has several all cashmere items on sale, as well as real silk pieces, not to mention merino wool pieces etc., so their sale is really well worth checking out!

Shopped: Sweaters at La Redoute

When I lived in my native Sweden, I used to shop at La Redoute, a French mail order company, quite often. I am a big fan of the French and their sense of fashion, so I actually really missed being able to shop at La Redoute after I moved away from Sweden. This is why I was thrilled to see that La Redoute actually do ship to the country where I now live these days (I am pretty sure this did not use to be the case), so of course I had to order something immediately after noticing this.

I settled on some sweaters, having noticed recently that I simply do not have enough pretty ones, so I really needed a couple of new ones anyway. I liked what La Redoute themselves call a fisherman sweater, in grey and navy blue, so I got that.

I think this will look great with blue jeans!

I am also a big fan of owls, and my sister in law actually has the cutest owl sweater, that I would love to get as well, but by the time I discovered that I wanted her sweater, it was long sold out, so that is just not going to happen. That is why it was great to see a cute owl sweater over at La Redoute too:

They have this sweater in both black and ivory, but I decided to start by getting the black one. If that one is nice, I might get the ivory one too.
