Statement, chunky knitwear is going to be key this season

By Cheshire Life on October 8th 2011

Statement, chunky knitwear is going to be key this season, writes Amanda Griffiths. Lighter knits, layered under the tunic dress and worn with thick tights and boots will be a key trend to watch out for too; invest in a furry trimmed gilet for the ultimate in cosy style.

'Top trends this season are neutrals, camels, lace and cosy knits; looking classy and womanly, with strong, attractive accessories.'
