For fashion enthusiasts, the arrival of autumn and winter signals the official start of the 'cosy season', a time to embrace chunky knitwear and layered outfits. A standout item capturing the attention of Marks & Spencer shoppers is the Air-Yarn Scarf Neck Cardigan, which perfectly encapsulates this season's biggest trend: the scarf-coat. Priced at £36, this in-demand knitwear piece is proving immensely popular among those looking for warmth and style during colder weather, with many shoppers branding it a 'must have'.

Crafted from an ultra-fine air-yarn material, the cardigan is available in chic charcoal and olive colours, spanning sizes from extra small to extra large. Despite its lightweight feel, the fabric is lauded for being 'cosy' and 'warm', making it suitable for outdoor activities and layering. The regular-fit knit features a unique detachable scarf that buttons across the neck, offering versatility as it can be removed and worn with other outfits. This two-in-one design also includes a classic crew neckline, ribbed trims, and a button-down front, ensuring a neat and polished finish.

The M&S Air-Yarn Scarf Neck Cardigan has garnered an impressive 4.9 rating from customers, who frequently praise its 'unusual' design, 'good quality', and how 'so warm and cosy' it feels. One delighted shopper expressed, "I absolutely LOVE this cardigan! It's so unusual, fits true to size and is good quality." Another highlighted its versatility: "Good fit, lovely smoky grey colour. Can be worn with or without scarf, so versatile. Not a lightweight knit, so warm and cosy." While overwhelmingly positive, one shopper mentioned that the fit wasn't ideal for a larger size (20), finding it clingy rather than loose.

M&S is not alone in embracing the two-in-one scarf design for the colder season. Similar options include the Knitted Cardigan With Scarf from Tu Clothing at Sainsbury's, priced at £24 and available in green and black. For those preferring a jumper over a cardigan, Monsoon offers the Sally 2-in-1 Scarf Jumper in a neutral shade, currently on offer for £55.20, down from its original £69 RRP.

Beyond knitwear, another notable fashion deal for the week involves comfortable and waterproof footwear. Amazon is offering a significant 31% discount on the Skechers Women's Uno Rugged-Fall Air Boots, reducing their price from £84 to £58. These ankle-length boots are designed to provide both warmth and style, crafted from a synthetic durabuck material with a lace-up design, a faux-fur collar trim, and a soft shoe lining for ultimate 'cosiness' and 'comfort'.

The Skechers boots incorporate advanced comfort technologies, including Skechers' Air-Cooled Memory Foam for pressure relief, instant comfort, and breathability, alongside a Skech-Air Visible airbag midsole that provides the sensation of 'walking on clouds'. Shoppers have praised their functionality, with one happy customer stating, "I needed warm waterproof shoes. Luckily they worked perfectly and were very comfortable even after miles of walking." Another described them as "So comfortable, walking feels like being on a cloud." The boots currently hold a 4.6 rating on Amazon and are available in sizes three through to eight, though with limited half-size options.
