Wildfox stars (£200 £160) Gestuz (£60 £30) St Martins (£60 £48) Boss Orange (not in sale) Wildfox coral knit (also in grey here) Forever Unique (£60 £36)

Ever since my Boxing Day sale decision to buy a plain black cashmere in XL, my obsession with oversized knits has been growing at a frightening rate. Manifesting itself in an exciting sale purchase yesterday – outfit post to come, I promise – to be followed by another today after a browse through Cruise’s sale. Were money no object I’d go for the starry Wildfox – I’ve loved this star knit quite hard for nearly half a year now (FOREVER in fashion) but my sensible self has won out with the gorgeous Gestuz in dusty pink (top right – down to £30! I’m just waiting to hear back if they have it in a size 12…) In case you haven’t come across Cruise before, let me tell you, this is the shop where many of my fashion fantasies were born. The white-fronted Edinburgh boutique often saw my teenage self loitering around the rails, drinking up the over-the-top fashion and out-of-reach prices. These days the prices actually look pretty good. With a handful of boutiques dotted around the country (but not London) you can buy online here. You’ll find all the above knits in the Mainline collection.
