The turtleneck is THE sweater for winter, the one that keeps you warm... but it's hard to wear on a daily basis. Too tight, not feminine enough, too strict... And yet, this classic remains an essential part of our wardrobe. Basic and perfect for winter, it can be worn in different ways. Here are some tips.
Timeless, the classic turtleneck (from €35 at Benetton) remains a safe bet. To be quite sober, stick with a simple sweater, but accessorize with a blazer and pleated trousers, for a very serious side, but offbeat with colorful or fancy trainers (we love Valentino's Camo Ruckrunner, at 550 €, but we can also stay reasonable with a less expensive pair that will also have its effect).
Yes, being beautiful and chic in a sweater is possible, and in a turtleneck too! We're simply going to add a touch of femininity with a faux leather skirt (€25.99 at Stradivarius) and printed but discreet ankle boots! We finish with a long coat and a clutch.
If you want to be comfortable in your sweater without feeling oppressed and confined in a collar, no problem:choose the maxi-collar (from €39.99 at Zara)! Very soft and very warm, it is perfect with raw skinny jeans and a pair of low boots. To finish the outfit, accessorize with a small bag and you're done.
And since we are always looking for “always more” even in terms of comfort, we can bet on the oversized turtleneck. Super comfortable, and above all super trendy, it is a great ally on a gray day. Matched with "mom" jeans, a pair of Stan Smiths (from €64.95 at Adidas), and a handbag, here it is still feminine.
And then, if you can't decide which bottom to wear with a turtleneck sweater, you can choose to wear it in a dress version! You can find them at reasonable prices at Pimkie, H&M or Zara.
