The Knitted Dress
A knitted dress is the perfect combination of stylishness and comfort for colder months! If you’re tired of feeling daggy, why not hunt for a tight-fitting style? This carves out your curves and will leave you feeling amazing – perfect for winter date nights. Look for a dark jewel tone such as plum, burgundy or inky navy. Style with an oversized leather jacket and heeled ankle boots for the evening or throw on your favourite trench coat and chunky white sneakers for a sophisticated day look.
Knitwear and a Silk Slip
Your signature silk slip doesn’t have to be reserved for just the summer season! It’s the perfect layering piece for cooler days, and it’s really as simple as adding a thick cable knit jumper over the top. Layer a thermal turtleneck underneath if you feel like you’ll be in need of a little more warmth. A pair of on-trend cowboy boots or some more classic ballet flats along with a cosy knitted beanie are the perfect finishing touches to this cool girl winter warmer.
Off the Shoulder Sweaters
An off the shoulder knit is the perfect evening piece for those nights when you want to show a little skin. Choose a close-fitting style in a soft grey, classy cream or moody black and match with your favourite pair of straight fit denim. Stiletto heeled, patent ankle boots, a messy high bun and some statement chunky hoop earrings will bring a touch of evening glam to this seriously stylish get up.
Cosy Tailoring
You can find a tonne of amazing suits that are made from wool-blend fabrics, which are going to keep you nice and warm all winter long. Pair with a crew neck cashmere knit and some chunky platform oxfords for an awesomely androgynous winter look. A slick high pony and a vintage-looking satchel bag will complete this boardroom chic look for office hours.
Knee-High Boots and a High Neck Knit
Knee-high boots are a lifesaver in the wintertime! They are chic, comfortable and warming – basically everything you’re looking for. You can wear these in so many ways, however, a very stylish way to go about dressing your eye-catching boots is with a fashion-forward leather skirt. Choose an A-line fit in a worn black or tan tone for a flirty yet sophisticated vibe. Tuck in a knitted turtleneck and add a chunky, cosy scarf. Some loose waves and a red lip will have you feeling like a Parisian fashion icon!
All White Everything
It’s very tempting to stick exclusively to dark tones during colder seasons, however, consider switching things up and opt for an all-white winter look to freshen up your outfit game. Cream toned chinos, white ankle boots and an oversized white sweater? Yes, please! Extra style points for some cream resin earrings and even a little white bow worn as a headband or wrapped around a neat bun.
See, knitwear doesn’t have to be boring in any way, shape or form! It’s all a question of allowing yourself to be creative and unique.
