Although it is summer, the weather in Scotland can often be unpredictable, which is why it is always handy to have a few lightweight cardigans on hand.
One that many fashion fans are snapping up is the Cotton Rich Textured V-Neck Cardigan from beloved high-street retailer Marks and Spencer. Hailed as "versatile", this cardigan is ideal for popping on over your summer dresses, or paired with a cute skirt.
Currently trending on the M&S website, this lightweight summer staple is available to buy in four colours - black, ivory, soft green and medium pink. It can be purchased in an extra small - extra large, with some sizes in each colour selling out fast.
Crafted from a cotton-rich fabric, this £27.50 M&S Collection cardigan has been made with a textured knit that adds a premium touch.
Designed in a regular fit with short sleeves, it is ideal for anyone who wants a light cover up that will still remain breezy in the warmer weather. Meanwhile, a V-neckline gives a flattering silhouette and tortoiseshell-style buttons give a timeless finish.
With an average 4.6 out of 5 star rating on the M&S website, the Cotton Rich Textured V-Neck Cardigan has been a hit with shoppers who say that they can pair it with any outfit on those chillier summer days.
One shopper said: "Lovely little cardigan to wear over dresses or on its own with a skirt , I liked it so much I bought a green one, they both wash really well and come up nice and soft with fabric softener on a 20/30 degrees. Very well made, I bought the cream one with discount on my Sparks card. Highly recommend."
A second praised: "I purchased this cardigan to go with a neutral colour denim phase eight dress. The dress is sleeveless and l wanted something to wear on colder days. The cardigan fits well and the design is on trend. Good price for cotton and l feel confident it will wash well. Pleased with my purchase."
Another shopper added: "Useful short sleeve cardigan. Very versatile can wear over a dress or tee shirt but also looks good on its own."
A fourth fan said of the cardi: "Lovely pink cardigan to cheer up my wardrobe. This cardigan can be worn alone with trousers or jeans or slipped on over a Spring dress when it is a little chilly. I love it and expect it will wash well."
And a fifth wrote: "Just what I needed for the summer months Looks lovely with a maxi dress on a cooler evening Think I might try it with linen pants too Excellent quality from M&S as usual."
