Toasty toes are essential to well-being in a British winter and what could be be more cosy than cashmere socks? This year we have some really beautiful, nordic patterns for women in damson, black or steel grey as well as sophisticated block shades of heather, teal and deep purple.

For Gentlemen, classic colours of grey, navy, red and black are sophisticated and stylish.

This is fine quality cashmere and should always be hand-washed in Mrs White's all-natural 'Woolly Answer' which takes all of three minutes - in fact the Lovely Lene tells me that she washes hers while taking a shower, which is a most interesting notion!
