Weekend Wardrobe: The Fair Isle

Weekend Wardrobe: The Fair Isle on vickiarcher.com


The Fair Isle sweater, not the Fair Isle where I live.

That’s a much more complex conversation for a weekend ;)


I have been looking at these Fair Isle sweaters and deciding whether I should add one to my weekend wardrobe; I have decided it’s a go.


Fair Isle has been a piece I have worn on and off over the years – I seem to remember wearing this style of the sweater over a pleated skirt with a waist belt on top; those were the days. Now I prefer the sweater loose and worn with casual pants, especially a discreet check or darker tartan plaid. Add a pair of lace-up boots or shoes and a jacket of choice and a weekend look is made easy.


This one I adore in both colourways and especially with these pants.



Have a happy one, xv.



These Fair Isles Are Fabulous
