lace up sweater

The lace up sweater, it’s seen on all your favourite bloggers this season. If you’re not willing to drop a grand on an Isabel Marant‘s chunky, lace up wool sweater, there’s still options for you. Places like Zaful can offer you this trend at prices we can all afford. Lace up fronts are still going strong and will transit and continue right into winter. Think chunky knitwear in wool, velvety and cable-knit materials. Whether tied up tight or worn open and loose, it’s the “it” sweater of the season.

Now is the perfect time to start making changes to your wardrobe. I always tend to go through my sweaters, get rid of old ones, and replace them with new, trendier pieces. It’s time to also embrace colour. Instead of reaching for your traditional black, white and grey, why not add a pop of pink. I’m totally obsessed with this lace-up Zaful sweater. The lace detail turns this otherwise ordinary, basic and slightly boring sweater into a more unique, trendy and stylish piece. It’s such a versatile sweater. There are so many ways you can wear it this winter. Create a fashion-forward, asymmetrical silhouette by wearing it off the shoulder. Show a little skin by wearing the lace tie loosely for a more sexy appeal, or wear it as is, tied up tightly for a work-appropriate, daytime look.

You can easily layer this with a cargo jacket for weekend vibes, a racy leather moto jacket for a spicier feel or a classic blazer for weekday wear. December is a busy month for all of us and we don’t have time to fuss with outfits. I tend to look for effortless pieces that I know will go with everything, and this sweater is it. I also love that you don’t need to wear jewellery as the lace up detail is enough. Its stylish, keeps me warm and is easy to style, perfect sweater if you ask me?
