Chunky knits, cardigans or otherwise, are big this fall. But, how do you keep this big trend from making you look, well, big? Here at Fashion for Giants, we put a belt on it:
I layered a chunky, dolman-sleeved cardigan (Kensie via Nordstrom) over a long-sleeve tee (Gap) and then I belted the heck out of it with a studded belt (Michael Michael Kors via Nordstrom). I also tried to balance the bulk of the sweater by keeping it slim on the bottom with skinny jeans (Bandolin via Macy’s) tucked into riding boots (Born Crown “Sosie” via Nordstrom).
Now, perhaps you are thinking “This outfit is okay, but I’d like to see some other options on how to wear chunky knits this fall and winter.” Or, perhaps you’re thinking, “That’s all fine and dandy for giants, but what about for non-giants?” Or maybe you’re thinking, “Sure that works for sunny-yet-cold Oregon
That’s right; I’ve made some new friends, y’all, and we’ve started a little blogging group we call Take Four. Take Four is an opportunity for we four friends, who met by chance through blogging, to get together and support each other in a collaborative blogging project.
The idea is simple: one or twice a month, we will post four, unique interpretations of a selected trend. And in each post, we will provide links to each other’s blogs, so that you, our readers, can find a look and style that suits you, your closet and your budget. We hope you enjoy the series and, as always, we love feedback, so feel free to get in touch with any of us!
Trust me, folks, take a gander at the other lovely ladies of Take Four; you’ll like what you see.
Happy Monday, Everyone!
Gracey
