As the colder months lie ahead, it can be disheartening yet exciting to know that soon there will be snow covered landscapes. In fact the chilling wind alone can frighten anyone to rush to a nearest store and stock up on knits, scarves, gloves, coats, and hats. But there is a piece that many may shy away from, “The Turtleneck”. What shy’s some away from this item is that it covers up too much of the human body. Many people want to feel warm yet look stylish and turtlenecks just don’t always offer that versatility. But the truth is a turtleneck can be just as fashionable as an oversize cardigan or pullover. The trick is to not layer so much on top of the sweater if you are feeling overwhelmed with warmth. Turtlenecks make great centerpieces when paired with a skinny jean or legging and heels.
The turtleneck takes on a new shape this season. What is becoming popular in the sweater shape is oversize. Expect to see many oversize versions of your favorite sweater style. Because this trend is taking shape you can also expect to see turtlenecks now in oversized versions. Try this turtleneck from Bergdorf Goodman for $395.
