Cozy Sweaters for Every Body

Now that there's a nip to the air, you may want to check out some of the hottest sweaters that'll keep you warm this season. But not all sweaters look great on everybody. When you want to don a pretty sweater, try the following trends. A sweater works for a casual, dressy or office look when it's layered. This season, a hot trend is to wear a well-fitting crewneck or v-neck sweater over a crisp, button-down shirt. Not only will you have a great, preppy look, but you'll also have a layer that you can remove if the office gets too stuffy or there's an unseasonably warm day. The same goes for the classic sweater layered with a matching cardigan. Get a set in a bright color to warm up dreary winter days - this combo looks good on most anyone with jeans, slacks or a skirt on the bottom and can be accessorized with pretty much anything.


The cowl neck shape is big this season, but it can overpower those who are petite and add size to those who are plus sized. The same goes for the super-chunky cable knits that the runways sported for this winter. One trend that everyone can wear is the sweater dress, a versatile look that goes great with flats, boots, tights, leggings and jeans. Try a sheath dress if you're curvy to show off a defined waist. If you would describe yourself as pear-shaped, try an A-line sweater dress with an interesting neckline, which will draw eyes up. Add definition with an empire waist if you're apple-shaped, and show off great legs with shorter cuts. If you have an athletic or straight body, create definition with an A-line dress or one that wraps. Stay cozy, whatever body you're in!
