Hi friends! Hope you all had an amazing weekend. While many parts of the country are able to bring out their sweaters, my fellow Houstonians and I are still living with 80+ degrees. This year, though, I’ve found the perfect transitional piece: the sleeveless turtleneck.
Its higher neckline gives off an autumn vibe while the sleeveless style makes it cool enough to wear right now. I’ve seen a variety of styles—some have more of a mock-neck while others have a larger cowl-neck. They also come in a wide selection of fabrics, like a thin jersey material or a chunky knit. Plus when the weather finally gets colder these will be perfect for wearing under coats, cardigans and jackets since it creates a layered look without feeling bulky.
Here are 5 ways to style it – from the office to cocktails and beyond!
1. Saturday Strolling – Spending a crisp fall weekend afternoon shopping around town? Add a wrap over skinny jeans to chase the chill with flat, over-the-knee suede boots and golden sunnies for an ensemble that’s comfortable, sleek and seasonally appropriate.
2. At the Office – Your key to looking in command: Mixing classic, structured pieces. Looking for a foolproof combo? Add a white blazer, a tote and a statement shoe in a similar palette; a black leather skirt adds just the right amount of edge.
3. Dinner with the Girls – For a meet-up with friends, slip on a cropped jacket, distressed black jeans and sexy heels. A crocodile-embossed clutch dials up the glam.
4. Catching a Flight – Add a wool coat that can double as a blanket. Paired with loose pants that will help keep you comfortable. Don’t forget your roomy tote for all your carry-on essentials.
5. Elegant Evening Out – Headed to the theater or something else, a luxe coat and floor-length maxi skirt will have you covered for the night! Accessorize with striking but understated jewels and lace-up heels to keep the overall look upscale.
This Francescas sweater is definitely how I’m doing Fall in Texas! Y’all, the temps yesterday were in the mid 90’s! Ahhhhh, seriously! Why so H-O-T-T?? I am happy to see later this week we will be loving life again with highs in the 70’s! Thank God!
