FOR THE DAYS
THAT CANNOT DECIDE

Bright at nine, cold by eleven, warm again by the time you are walking back to the car. Audrey is the answer to that sort of day, the one you carry over your arm and put on the moment the sun goes behind something. It is light enough to forget about and smart enough that you are happy to be seen in it. Most of the year, that is all a woman actually needs.

WHY THE AUDREY?

• Warm without the weight: The knit is fine rather than heavy, so it takes the edge off a cool room or a breeze without leaving you too warm ten minutes later. It folds down small enough to sit in a handbag on the way out.
  
  
• Buttons when you want them: Done up it holds a neat line down the front, open it falls straight and long over whatever is underneath. You will find yourself doing one and then the other before the morning is out.
  
  
• Ribbed edges that keep their shape: The cuffs, hem and front are finished with fine ribbing, which is why this still looks tidy after a full season rather than stretched and tired at the openings. Small detail, and the reason it lasts.
  
  
• It goes over everything you own: A blouse for work, a dress for lunch, a roll neck in the depths of winter. Nothing pulls or bunches underneath, so it slips on over what you are already wearing without a rethink.
  
  
• Six colours, sizes XS to XXL: Black, Grey, Brown, Dark Brown, Khaki and Green, all quiet enough to sit beside the rest of your wardrobe rather than fight it. It runs true to size, so take your usual, or the next size up for a looser, longer line.
