There’s nothing I love more than cosying up in a gorgeous knit during winter. They’re the ideal layering piece under coats or jackets but in the right cut and style, they can definitely become the showpiece of an outfit. One of the go-to styles to have in your closet this season is a beautiful slouchy knit. On its own, a relaxed sweater can look super chic and polished, but is oh-so comfy at the same time.
When you’re shopping for this knitwear style, go for something that’s a little oversized and has a relaxed feel to it. You don’t want anything that’s too fitted—it’s all about a slouchy fit to evoke that effortless vibe. Also, when you’re building up your collection, it’s worth sticking to classic neutrals, think cream, grey, white, camel, navy and beige to really get more mileage out of each piece. Classic hues make it easy to work back a sweater with a variety of different pieces. When you’ve got all those colours covered, then you can definitely branch out into other hues to make a statement (this gorgeous green Camilla and Marc sweater would elevate any winter outfit!)
So, what can you wear with a slouchy knit? The options are plenty! You can wear it with any of the below options, but just be sure to do a casual little French tuck at the front to help give the sweater some shape. Try wearing your relaxed knitwear with…
- A leather pant – both with leggings and with a straight trouser style
- A great pair of jeans – straight, wide leg, and yes, even skinnies
- A wide leg trouser
- A denim midi or maxi skirt
- A classic chino
- A maxi skirt
If there’s one thing you need to add to your winter shopping list, definitely make it a slouchy knit. It’s such an easy way to update a look, and something you’ll have for seasons to come.
