Knitwear will always be a staple in our wardrobes at this time of year but this autumn/winter you'll be feeling especially cosy. Don't settle for a comfy jumper, go all the way with head to toe knitwear for an elegant yet edgy look. Reach for the retro hues and patterns for a sophisticated vibe, however, don't be afraid of bright colours- this trend could be taken to the next level with vibrant accents.  Accessories your knitwear-overload with a chic vintage hand bag and statement earrings and the oh-so-simple jumper is officially the height of fashion.  

Not all of us have hundreds to spend on our winter jumpers so below I've listed my favourite high-street knitwear finds. Zara definitely have some of my favourite pieces, I think they've designed pieces that look more expensive than they are for example the knit co-ords. I also love the ruffle details on the mustard Topshop jumper, the lines created by the edging are very modern and eye-catching.
