Usually reserved for those who wear wellies, Barbour jackets and pearls on a regular basis, the humble cardigan is having a moment.
Spotted on the likes of Sienna Miller, who recently wore a very chic v-neck version, this item perfectly treads the line between formal and informal; smart and casual.
If you're unsure on how to wear it, we suggest you stick to the following rule: for big knitted garments ensure you have a thin belt to hand for cinching that waist and for smaller versions, button to the top and wear with a fancy pair of trousers or leather skirt.
Take a look at some of our favourites on the high street, all for under £150, in the gallery below
