Marks and Spencer is selling the perfect sweatshirt for disappointingly cold summer days or chilly evenings when you require an extra layer. The Joules Pure Cotton Striped Half Zip Sweatshirt has a pretty pastel pattern that’ll bring some colour to your outfit.
The garment is made to an easy regular fit and has a flattering funnel neckline that allows you to style the sweatshirt your way. Wear the collar up and fastened to the top for extra warmth, or wear it open and folded down to show off a necklace.
The Joules Striped Half Zip Sweatshirt is an online exclusive and costs £69.95. It’s made from 100% cotton, is machine washable and is available in sizes six to 26.
The sweatshirt has a half-zip placket and snap-button fastening, and has a dropped step hem for a neat silhouette. The rib-knit cuffs and embroidered branding under the collar add more attractive details to the garment.
It has two handy side pockets for storing your phone or purse – or for keeping your hands warm on a particularly cold summer’s day. It can be worn casually with jeans, linen trousers, a skirt, or over a dress.
One M&S shopper said: “This is a fantastic sweatshirt, beautiful soft material and lovely pastel stripes. Goes with absolutely everything and just what you need for those chilly evenings.”
A second wrote: “This is a beautiful top, the quality is fantastic, feels so soft and the colours are gorgeous.” A third added: “So pleased with this sweatshirt. Colours are lovely for spring/summer. It is quite thick so great for chillier days. Maybe a bit pricier than I’d wanted to pay, but very pleased with the style and fit.”
One customer, however, wasn’t satisfied with the fit of the sweatshirt, but they still rated it four stars. They explained: “Sweatshirt is a beautiful array of pastel colours. Sleeve length just right. Nice cosy warm lining. Very good quality feel to it. Sadly for me it was too boxy. Hung around my hips and I felt it would let the wind in. I would have liked to have had a more fitted hemline.”
You can buy the Joules Pure Cotton Striped Half Zip Sweatshirt from M&S for £69.95. FatFace is selling a similar Relaxed Airlie Stripe Sweatshirt for £55, while Gant has the Breton Striped Half-Zip Sweater currently on sale for £96.
