| P.S. The skirt is actually navy blue! Love it! |
Although it is not the exact outfit I envisioned, I am glad to say the quality of the garments is top notch (100% cotton)! This means I can wear them for a long time :) so I consider them a good investment.
I guess it comes down to my job in merchandising that I have now started thoroughly investigating the material composition of the clothes I buy (and I try to steer clear of poly and nylon!). Hence, I believe I have a new high street lover - Gap.

If you too, like me, love this trend then fear not: all the stores - from the high street to the high fashion - have lovely sweaters and winter skirts in stock. And what's best is that the winter sales are coming soon! Now all that's left to do is to patiently find a good sweater + skirt combo and you are good to go!
