Sweaters are synonymous with winter. They go with everything, keep you warm, and come in a variety of silhouettes, making it easy to find a sweater that can take you from brunch to the office. But as one of the most-worn pieces of clothing in a wardrobe during the winter months, it can be easy to get bored of this must-have piece. Today, I’m sharing exactly how to style your sweater for winter so you can be excited about getting dressed again!
How to Style a Sweater for Winter
Cropped Sweater & Legging
If you’re running errands or grabbing brunch with friends, you can never go wrong with a cropped sweater and a fun pair of leggings. Lately, I’ve been reaching for this ribbed pair and love them for working out and for wearing with cozy sweaters. For shoes, something with a thicker sole like these platform boots and these lug sole boots are always a great option.
Balance the outfit out with your favorite outerwear (love this vest and this cropped jacket!), a pair of sunglasses, and your favorite bag and you’re ready to go!

Chunky Knit Sweater & Skinny Jeans
To still touch on the comfy and casual vibes of a sweater and leggings, but look a little more elevated, swap out your leggings for a pair of skinny jeans. This ribbed sweater and this mock neck sweater are a great option for wearing with skinny jeans. The oversized silhouette of both sweaters balance out the slim fit of a skinny jean.

With Trousers and Sneakers
If you want to look more elevated and office ready, but still want an outfit that is seasonally appropriate, pair your favorite sweater with a wide leg trouser. This outfit formula is a classic and can be worn well into spring. The collar on this sweater make it look a little more elevated, which I love. Paired with a chic sneaker like this platform pair and you’ve got yourself a chic, city girl outfit that is guaranteed to get you compliments!

With Straight Leg Jeans
Straight, full-length jeans are trending right now and I love it. Don’t get me wrong, a skinny jean has been my BFF the last couple of years, but I love that the straight full-length jean is having its comeback. I’ll be pairing mine with a turtleneck sweater (a winter classic) and these winter-weather appropriate lug sole boots. This outfit is easy, will make you feel great, and will have you ready for whatever winter weather is coming your way.
