Wrap it Up!

Cool fall days and even colder winter days are fast approaching. If you’re like me, and a lot of others I know, this means I can finally dress in the layers I love so much. Tank tops, camisoles, and cute tee shirts are so much better when you can wear them layered under soft, cozy sweaters. This fall, wrap sweaters are perfect for a variety of looks.



Sisters makes a cocoon sweater, available in both wine and charcoal. It has a cutaway front, making it swingy and fun. It would go well with jeans and a tee, finished with casual flats or sueded boots

525 America makes a cocoon sweater with a thick rib knit, ¾ length sleeves, and shawl collar. This is a perfect workday look. Try it with grey pants, a brightly-colored top, and heels for a sophisticated and fun look.

Chaudry makes a cropped version of the sweater with a wide knit, available in eggplant and brown. This is a more elegant style that would work well with a fitted satin tank and a flouncy skirt.

Sweater season will be here soon, so click on the “Jackets & Sweaters” link above to see more great styles. Remember to click on the pictures above for more information.

Nicely knit

Chunky knits always seem like a perfect look for fall and winter. Warm, cozy, and comfy, they’re a great way to keep out the chill but still look hot. This year, chunky knit sweaters are at the top of the must-have list for fall. As always, Yaya’s carries just what you need to make sure you’re a “do” and not a “don’t.”

For a super-soft, super comfy sweater, try 525 America’s pullover. With a loose knit and loose fit, it’s perfect for layering. Try it with soft grey straight-leg jeans or trousers, and wear a brightly-colored tank underneath for an eye-catching burst of color. Simple dangle earring would complete the look.

For a more sophisticated take on chunky knit, try Tribal’s single-button cardigan. The loose and open silhouette allows a flirty camisole or tank top to peek through, while still keeping you nice and toasty. This is a perfect piece with black pants and a tan tank, or even over a sleek floral dress and knit tights with boots. It comes in crimson or buckskin, both colors sure to fit your wardrobe’s fall color palette.

Chunky knit sweaters work well all fall and winter long, so make sure you stock up now! Check out the sweaters and jackets link above for more great looks.
