STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Cowl-Necks are a Must

We all know sweaters in the winter are a must. But who knew cowl-neck sweaters were also going to make a huge comeback this winter! The cowl-neck offers a stylish twist on your average sweater. You can pair it with some jeans and adidas and rock a super comfy outfit or you can dress it up and pair it with some leather leggings, an oversized necklace and heeled booties for a night out!

This Fashionista pairs her heather gray cowl-neck sweater with some Zara ripped jeans, black flat booties,and a stylish oversized black coat. This look is perfect for going to class, grabbing coffee with friends or even going out for dinner on the town! Not only are cowl-necks becoming a popular trend abroad, (I found this Fashionista roaming the streets of Leuven, Belgium), but they are becoming ever more popular in the United States as well!

Some may say they can be drab and frumpy, but I think this Fashionista rocks it extremely well! To avoid this “frumpy” look some people speak of, try and pair your cowl-neck with skinny jeans or a bandage skirt! This avoids having the “baggy” look take over your whole outfit!

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “My main goal with outfit was actually warmth! Belgium never has a day without rain, so being comfortable, stylish, warm and dry were my main concerns. Also, I’d say always keep it simple with a cowl-neck. You never want to do too much with one outfit!”
