Get The Look: Turtlenecks

If you were anything like myself as a child one thought remained true for most of your elementary school days: you hated turtlenecks. When you grew out of your adolescent stage and started dressing yourself, turtlenecks were a no-go. But, that was until everything changed in the year 2013. With celebrities and designers wearing countless styles of the classic look, there are many simple ways to adapt the look regardless of your climate (and budget)!

If the weather is still a bit warmer where you live, take a tip from Kylie Jenner and dress up a simple sleeveless and cropped black-on-black combo with colored peep toe heels. Since the cropped style hits at your natural waist it flatters all body types, especially shorter and curvier girls. If needed, throw on a blazer or a leather jacket while still looking chic for a night out.

For a more casual daily look, try a chunky cable knit turtleneck with dark wash jeans like Lily Aldridge. By pairing with black booties and sunglasses this look could be easily mimicked with my picks above.

For a dressier look, try an embellished long sleeve turtleneck and a patterned skirt. Pairing two of the seasons's biggest trends (turtlenecks and plaid) together keeps the outfit high-end, while not having to break the bank with budget-friendly pieces. Since this photo I found of Perrie didn't show what she shoes she was wearing, I added two heeled shoe options depending on your taste. To make the look more appropriate for colder weather, add some black tights to the outfit. 

Until next time, Happy Holidays babes!
