H&M shoppers running to pick up the ‘cutest’ bow cardigan that is the perfect ‘Autumn aesthetic’ and will keep you cosy
AUTUMN is just around the corner which means it may be time to pick up some cosy clothing items for your wardrobe.
One item that is causing a stir with H&M shoppers is the “cutest” cardigan with bows that looks ideal for chillier weather.
The item is being sold online and in stores and comes in sizes XXS to XXL[/caption]Shopper Lily, who posts under @lilyrose_co, shared how she spotted the gorgeous item in stores.
She wrote: “Run to H&M for the cutest bow jumper ever.”
Holding up the cream garment, she showed how it has three black bows down the front.
The snug item looks perfect for wearing with jeans or a skirt and boots as we leave the summer months behind.
The H&M website states: “Cardigan in a soft rib knit containing some wool.
“Round, rib-trimmed neckline, dropped shoulders and long sleeves.
“Concealed press-studs and decorative bows in an accent colour down the front.”
The shop suggested finishing off the look with leather trousers and some ballet flats.
You’ll have to be eagle-eyed to snap up the cardigan, as currently it is sold out online.
A number of shops are selling it at the moment, and you can check the stock calculator online.
It comes in sizes XXS to XXL and will set you back £44.99.
Many shoppers seem desperate to add the H&M item to their autumn wardrobes.
Lily’s video has racked up over 69,000 views, with one person saying: “need this.”
Another added: “Why is my H&M broken?”
This comes as another H&M item is proving to be a bit hit with shoppers at the moment.
H&M’s T-shirt dress win
Fashion lovers raved about their T-shirt dress for being the first flattering one they had found.
It’s also just £12.99, meaning it won’t break the bank.
Customer Ayla took to TikTok to share a look at the waisted T-shirt dress, which comes in three different colours and in sizes from XS to XXL.
“FINALLY a flattering T-shirt dress!” Ayla wrote over the top of the video.

“A clearer video of the flattering t shirt dress from H&M. THE WAIST THOUGH,” she captioned the video.
The short dress features a round neckline and straight-cut hem, but has waist darts at the back for a “tapered waist”, according to the H&M website.
And people were quick to comment on the clip, with many of them admitting they’d snapped up the dress already.
The must-have colour for autumn wardrobes
WHEN it comes to colour, one in particular has dominated the A/W runways.
Maroon has been seen on big-name designer catwalks such as Tom Ford, Gucci, Valentino and Versace, to name a few.
Perfect to mix with your current wardrobe, don’t think that this deep shade is just for the colder months.
It’s also great to wear at this time of year and one you can continue wearing throughout the rest of the year and beyond.
Fabulous fashion editor Clemmie Fieldsend said: “There’s something about maroon’s deep, rich colour that instantly makes you look well put-together and expensive.”

The Great British Bake Off star’s husband John Playfair also acts as her right-hand man during the show.
Viewers got country-living tips from the TV star’s other half during series one.
Speaking about the show’s return, Prue said: “I am so thrilled about our new series of Prue Leith’s Cotswold Kitchen.
“I love filming in our house and farm; my husband John turns out to be quite the star (not sure I’m so keen on that!).
“I’ve got some terrific guests lined up to chat and cook with, and more food heroes to show the world. I can’t wait!”
Prue’s second series will run for 10 episodes in total, with each 60 minutes long.
Earlier this year it was revealed how the beloved star was taking a shock break from Bake Off.
Sources at the time told how Prue had decided not to take part in the show’s annual celebrity spin-off.
An insider made clear she adores being apart of the format and has asked bosses to return in 2025.

I’m 44, a mum-of-three & love wearing crop tops – trolls tell me to put my stomach away but I won’t listen
It’s one of those debates that seems to pop up again and again.
Some people think certain styles should be left to the younger crowd, but let’s be real – the fashion world today is all about breaking those old-school rules.
And age is just a number, right?
More and more, we’re seeing that what really matters is how you feel in your clothes, not the number on your birth certificate.
And wearing a crop top can be a bold and empowering choice, and one mum knows exactly just this.
Summer, who is known as @summer_fit on TikTok, shared a video on her social media showing off her stomach in a crop top.
The blonde mum-of-three, who has clearly worked hard to get impressive abs, wanted to hit back at trolls who say that “women over 40 really shouldn’t wear crop tops.”
In response to that comment, she mimed a voice which said: “No, I was going to listen to that but then I just carried on living my life.”
Another video showed Summer wearing nothing but knickers and a boob tube bra.
She captioned the video: “If you find it offensive that I touch one part of my own body or triggering when I ‘show off’ another… IDGAF (I don’t give a f***)
“Because honestly… It’s MY BODY and I’m proud.
“If I can motivate even 10 people, it doesn’t bother me that one person may criticise or judge me negatively. 44 is #STILLYOUNG and it is possible!”
Her videos gain thousands of likes, with many rushing to the comments section to share their thoughts.
One wrote: “Wow stunningly.”
A second added: “I’m 44 too but you make 44 look so young!”
Whilst a third said: “Good genes and very hard work.”
And someone else said: “Wow, truly amazing, absolutely stunning.”
She’s not the only woman to be proud to wear a crop top past the age of 40.
We previously revealed how Lisa Crobo, 63, had to hit back at trolls after receiving negative comments about her outfit choices.
The fashionista frequently captures her outings on film, whether she’s strolling down the street or browsing in shops.
Her wardrobe features chic sleeveless tops that highlight her midriff, along with skirts, jeans, and trousers.
In one notable video, Lisa expressed her frustration, stating she was “really tired of the judging” and emphasising that she is simply trying to “live her best life.”
Can you be dress coded for wearing crop tops in public?
The concept of being “dress coded” typically applies to specific environments such as schools, workplaces, or certain establishments where dress codes are enforced to maintain a particular standard or atmosphere.
In public spaces, however, the situation is generally more relaxed and governed by societal norms rather than strict rules.
That said, whether or not you can be dress coded for wearing a crop top in public largely depends on the context and location:
Public Spaces: In most public spaces, like parks, streets, and beaches, wearing a crop top is generally acceptable and unlikely to result in any formal repercussions. People have the freedom to dress as they choose, provided they adhere to basic standards of decency and local laws.
Establishments and Venues: Some restaurants, shops, or clubs may have their own dress codes. It’s possible that a crop top might not meet the dress requirements for more formal venues. In such cases, staff may politely request that you adhere to their dress code or deny entry.
Schools and Workplaces: Educational institutions and workplaces often have dress codes in place. Crop tops may be considered inappropriate in these settings, and you could be asked to change into more suitable attire.
Cultural and Regional Considerations: In certain cultures or regions, norms and expectations around acceptable clothing can vary widely. It’s always a good idea to be aware of and respect local customs and dress codes when travelling.
