Style guide: find a perfect fit sweater this season

Do you want to learn how to style your sweaters so you can create multiple outfits that work with your body?  Read on as this quick style guide will show you how to look great in ladies sweaters.

A nice knit sweater is perfect for layering and adding texture to any outfit during the colder fall and winter months.  The key is to find a great timeless sweater.  Timeless being those that never go out of style such as a v neck, turtleneck, and cardigan.

Women’s sweater dresses such as the ribbed sweater dress by RED Valentino at Fashiondoxy.com are great on their own.  The mesh detailing at the neckline and hem softens the look of this military inspired sweater dress.  With vertical pleats on the top and horizontal on the skirt, this sweater dress appears to be separate pieces.

If you aren’t in the mood for a full sweater set such as the one mentioned above, find a sweater in a nice neutral color because it will go with everything.  For example, a nice white cashmere sweater such as the Flavia crew sweater by Rag & Bone at Fashiondoxy.com is the perfect example of a relaxed casual sweater.  Not too boxy yet not fitted, this cashmere sweater will keep you warm and stylish this winter.  Pair it with jeans or slacks and you can wear it just about anywhere.  This timeless sweater can be worn to work, school, church, or any social gathering.

A white turtleneck sweater such as the Speakeasy cashmere sweater by Banjo & Matilda is also a great look.  Also made of 100% cashmere, the elbow patches lend scholarly charm.  Add a splash of color with a brightly colored gemstone necklace and you’re ready for cocktails or an office holiday party.

The key to sweaters is to remember they are not like women sweatshirts.  Think of sweaters as the champagne of winter wear, classier, more stylish, and even more versatile than sweatshirts, you can find several sweaters and sweater dresses to be more appropriate for a professional atmosphere. 

Take the Oscar cashmere dress by Equipment for example.  This sweater dress is made out of luxe cashmere and features long sleeves and ribbed edges.  For less than $400 this 100% cashmere dress is more affordable than you think, only at Fashiondoxy.com.
