Have you ever had a moment where your eyes meet across the room like star crossed lovers and you suddenly think you'll be coming home with me? That's exactly what happened when I spotted this tapestry print sweater in & Other Stories last week. After watching the magical Charlie and The Chocolate Factory matinee show (my cutie of a dad surprised my mum and I with tickets) and chowing down at Shake Shack, we found ourselves perusing raiding Libertys Christmas department before hitting up the so-on-the-money & Other Stories. On arrival my mum asked why I'd been keeping such a gem to myself before picking up an alarming number of handbags to compare but thanks to me (who'd of thought it?) she left with just one.

The justification for my slightly outlandish purchase? If you can't succumb to the charms of a pricey pull over at Christmas then when can you and that my friends is one true story. See what I did there? Right now I seem to be building quite the collection of sweatshirts from strong slogans to animal prints but the vintage inspired pattern and random jewels on this bad boy won me over, while the grey marl base ensured the arrival of my debit card. Oh and did I mention the slightly furry lining? 

Now which way is sweatshirts anonymous?

Have you ever visited & Other Stories? Are you a bit of a sweater fiend like me?
