When it comes to fashion, we are all inspired by what we see; whether it be a well-dressed celebrity, a blow-your-mind catwalk presentation or even a super stylish every-day passerby.
As fashion editors, we’re moved by all of the above, and then some. We’re exposed to under-the-radar labels; we get a first-hand look at collections months before they hit stores; we’re tapped into brands with chic-yet-cheap offerings and we shop — a lot.
To share our knowledge, FEMAIL brings you Style Swoon, a weekly series of the latest, greatest and on the verge. We hope this Friday series will serve as a buying guide and point of inspiration for the clotheshorses and fashion fanatics alike.

Samantha Myer’s PÀPÀSWEATER retails for $89 and the perfect winter outerlayer
The infamous Snuggie got a stylish makeover.
Stylist Samantha Myer says she’s been crafting the perfect wardrobe for years.
Out of all the clothes in her closet, she admits that she wears her papa’s sweater the most.
‘It’s cozy, warm enough to be worn as a jacket, big enough to be worn as a dress, you can sleep in it but then throw on some boots and look super chic, vintage details, and most importantly.. imbed with so much love.’
Inspired by her grandfather’s jumper, Samantha designed the PÀPÀSWEATER.
Each $89 blanket sweater is made of 100% Sherpa fabric and hand sewn by the stylist and a few out-of-work seamstresses that were hit by the pandemic.
‘Hand-sewn vintage buttons to give it a cool look and versatility, it possesses everything I value about product and style,’ she says.
The labor of love has allowed her to stay connected to family, especially her nana.
‘I hope when you wear this you feel the giant hug from your friends, family, loved ones.’
