If you're looking at your winter wardrobe with plans to update it over the next few months, the best place to start is by investing in a cosy jumper. Knitwear is not just practical for keeping you warm, but it's versatile, too. You can use it to layer, to make a statement or to add a pop of colour with minimal effort.

One jumper that's caught our eye is this Pure Merino Wool Crew Neck Jumper from Marks & Spencer that ticks every box.

Made from a super soft fabric, it costs £35, which may feel steep, but is a timeless design that won't date and will match everything in your wardrobe already.

And with over 200 five-star reviews from happy M&S shoppers, it's safe to say that there's a pretty convincing case for why you need to add it to your basket ASAP.

Available in sizes six to 24, it's been flying off shelves with customers raving about its quality, value and softness.

Why we rate it

Let's talk design. It has a timeless crew neckline, cut in a regular fit with ribbed trims on the neck, cuff and hem.

It's thin enough to layer over a shirt next time you head into the office, or on its own with your favourite pair of jeans for more day-to-day styling.

It's made from a fine knit, premium wool that's not scratchy on the skin, but super comfortable and easy to wear.

Featuring long sleeves and falling perfectly on the waist, it's the perfect piece to carry you through the winter months, all the way up until spring.
