Over the top for Oversized Sweaters!

Fall is in full swing and it is officially time to embrace all of those cozy pieces in your closet! One of my absolute favorite items is a good oversized sweater. Not only are these sweaters comfortable and will keep you toasty warm, they are also chic and super stylish. Because it is very easy to appear frumpy and not made up in such a garment, there are a few things you should keep in mind.
- Oversized sweaters look best when paired with tighter bottoms. (So leggings, skinny jeans, tighter dress pants, dress shorts)
- Avoid baggy or loose fitting pants/bottoms … you will look sloppy.
- Depending on how long the sweater is, you can even consider it as a dress and wear it over tights.
- Add accessories to keep it trendy and stylish. (A belt over top of the sweater will create a waistline)
- Like many other pieces, the oversized sweater looks fab with a great pair of heels or boots.
- Try putting a blazer over top to give it a sophisticated look.
Take a peek at some great examples of how to look fabulous and cozy all at the same time while sporting a great oversized sweater!
