ROCK THE CHUNKY KNIT

Fashion

26 July 2016

One of the plus-points about the cooler days of winter is the lure of a chunky knit to snuggle in to. In fact, it's one of the easiest ways to add texture and interest to any look. We've rounded out our favourite 5 knitwear pieces to wrap yourself up in this season.

THE COATIGAN

Or in other words, an oversized snuggly layering piece which has the coverage of a coat with the relaxed comfort (and fit) of a cardigan.

We love the versatility of this piece and the casual yet cool look it gives when paired with something as simple as your favourite t-shirt and jeans.

THE LAYERING VEST

When you want to show off your blouse or tee but still need the added coverage of a layering piece try a layering vest.

Oversized and chunky, the layering vest looks great over a long sleeved dress or funnel neck top.

THE SWEATER DRESS

A stylishly warm sweater dress takes the hassle out of outfit prep and the bite out of a cold winters day.

We love this dress paired back with stockings and over the knee boots or booties.

THE CHUNKY KNIT SCARF

The chunkier the better.  Keep a chill at bay and add texture and interest to your outfit with the chunkiest of accessories.

Drape your scarf over a relaxed shirt dress for a nice contrast of light and heavy fabrics or for the more traditional look, rug up with a full length coat.

THE ROLL NECK

The simplest of details makes for a chic outfit.  As far as roll necks go this season, the chunkier the better.

The beauty of this style means you can pay attention to your accessories.  Perhaps a pair of earrings offset by a stylish top knot and a sweep of cherry red lippy to finish.  Tres’ chic!
