As the unpredictable Irish weather continues to keep us on our toes, Irish shoppers know the value of a good cardigan to layer up and stay cosy. For those looking to add a stylish and practical piece to their wardrobe, Marks and Spencer has the perfect option - and it has been celebrity-approved.

The 50 cardigan was recently spotted on Claudia Winkleman, who made her return to BBC's The Traitors last week. Shoppers wanting to copy her style will be pleased to know that the exact Marks and Spencer cardigan she loves is still in stock.

The presenter, 53, posed for the Marks and Spencer Instagram account last week in a full outfit from the brand, which included its popular Textured V-Neck Relaxed Cardigan. She paired it with a white top, grey skirt, brown boyfriend coat and some stylish brogues.

Fans were quick to praise the look, with comments like, "Absolute stunning woman" and "Looking fab as always".

If you're looking to add this must-have cardigan to your wardrobe, you can still grab one online, although stock is unsurprisingly selling out fast. The cardigan has already sold out in extra-large, but it remains available in sizes extra small, small, medium and large at the time of writing HERE. If your size is out of stock, it may be worth checking your local store for availability.

Dozens of shoppers have left glowing reviews of the cardigan, which they say is "unbelievably comfortable" and "goes with everything".

One shopper said: "A lot of people thought this dull. I love it. Love grey goes with everything and it fits very well. Nice to have buttons." Another wrote: "Eye catching coordinate. I wear it with black polo neck. Really amps up cosiness factor. Perfect for layering."

A third shared: "This is a good looking cardigan, a lovely grey with a mix of white in the knit, they are right it is relaxed in its fit but unbelievably comfortable - very happy with buy." Someone else posted: "Nice cardigan, good length and great for layering, havent washed it yet, so dont know how it will wash but very happy with it, nice colour and true to size."

While the cardigan has been a major hit, some customers had issues with sizing. One person said: "Lovely thick cardigan . Slightly oversized but looks great with jeans or trousers." Another wrote: "Just what I was looking for, a comfortable, soft slouchy cardigan I could wear anywhere. Lovely colour and so comfy (not washed it yet). But the sleeves are sooo long and I have to turn up the cuffs 3 times meaning I have wads of material around my wrists. Why cannot you make the sleeves shorter?"

A third shared: "Big on sizing but nice soft material. Lovely cosy cardigan." For more information or to buy, visit the Marks and Spencer website HERE.
