ONE RED JUMPER
BEATS A DOZEN BEIGE

Most wardrobes have plenty of sensible and not much that makes you smile on the way out of the door. Harriet is the one that does, without any effort on your part. It works on a grey Tuesday with jeans, and it works at the table on Sunday, which is a fair bit of use for one jumper. Buy it once and it will see out the winter.

WHY THE HARRIET?

• A red that is easy to live with: Warm rather than bright, closer to a good wine than a postbox. It sits happily beside navy, grey, denim and black, so it slots into what you already wear rather than demanding a whole outfit around it.
  
  
• Comfort that still has a shape: Relaxed through the body, but it holds its line rather than drooping by the afternoon. You feel entirely at ease in it without looking like you have given up on the day.
  
  
• Nothing to fidget with: No itch at the neck, no tugging at the cuffs, no adjusting every time you get up. It is the sort you put on in the morning and forget about until you take it off.
  
  
• Right from breakfast to the evening: Layered over a shirt on the school run, or on its own with the fire going later. It carries a cool morning through to a cold night without a second thought.
  
  
• Honest sizing, S to 4XL: It runs true, so order your usual. Between two? Take the larger for an easier fit. Each one is measured by hand, so allow a couple of centimetres either way.
