While summer has almost arrived, the weather that is typically associated with the warm season has not. After experiencing days of glorious sunshine during the heatwave last week, the temperature lately pales in comparison.

It isn't freezing outside, but the climate does require wearing a cardigan or a jacket when spending time outdoors. If you're in need of a new lightweight cardigan, or just want to add a new one to your collection, it is worth heading over to Roman.

The high-street retailer stocks the Ivory Stitch Knit Cardigan and shoppers say it is 'just the thing' for cooler summer days. It costs £36 but new customers who use our exclusive discount code AFRPLC25Q226 can pick it up with a 25% saving, bringing the price down to £27.

The stunning Ivory Stitch Knit Cardigan is the perfect choice when you need an extra layer. Designed with long sleeves and an edge to edge front, the cardigan is a versatile piece for any occasion.

The intricate stitch knit adds a touch of texture and visual interest to any outfit, making it a casual essential. Shoppers can pick up the cardigan in sizes ten to 20, all of which are still in stock online.

Thanks to its versatile design, the cardigan can be dressed up or down effortlessly depending on the occasion. The knit can be styled with blouses, T-shirts or tops on more casual occasions or paired over a dress at more formal occasions

If you like the style of the cardigan but would prefer it in a different colour, not to worry. It is also available in an equally as gorgeous, and equally as adaptable, taupe brown hue.

Elsewhere, Marks and Spencer's Cotton Rich Pearl Detail Scallop Edge Cardigan comes in at £40. It's designed in a flattering slim fit, with an elegant V-shaped neckline while pearled bead buttons and scalloped trim add a feminine touch.

Alternatively, the Ecru Crew Neck Knitted Cardigan is priced at £29 at Next. Its soft, plain fabric, button-through front and classic crew neckline make it an effortless layering essential.

Back at Roman, the Ivory Stitch Knit Cardigan has racked up three glowing reviews so far. The first reads: "I like this cardigan for the summer. Nice length, comes up a bit bigger."

The second said: "Just the thing for cooler summer days, I bought this to go to a summer party. The dress I am wearing has flutter sleeves and I might feel cold in the evening so this shrug will be just thing to wear with my dress."

The third shopper, however, found the sizing on the Ivory Stitch Knit Cardigan to run large. They wrote: "Lovely cardigan, the only issue was my usual size 14 was very generous.

"But I ordered a replacement and this was done within a few days. Fit perfect, I will enjoy wearing on holiday."

The cardigan is made from pure cotton, making it a soft and breathable choice for mild summer days. That said, the fabric can be prone to shrinking in the wash, so it is always worth reading the care label before laundering.
