2. Size Up Your Sweater — Consider sizing up your sweater by wearing an oversized knit paired with skinny jeans or form-fitting leggings to balance out your look. When you’re on the go or just want an easy off-duty look, throw on an oversized sweater as your go-to for comfort and style.

3. Slip Into a Sweater Dress — When we think about fall and winter, the first thing that comes to mind when picking out our cold-weather wardrobe isn’t always dresses.

5. Mix Different Textures — The fashion experts at InStyle share that what’s so great about the versatile sweater ensemble is that it’s ultra-cozy and easy to layer, and it can match with anything from a sparkly mini skirt to a fully sheer maxi. Add instant style to your sweater look by playing with different textures. Pair sleek black leather leggings with a chunky knit sweater, or wear a soft, cashmere sweater with a long, silky skirt. The key is to balance out the different fabrics so one doesn’t overpower the other.

6. Go Bold with Color — Don’t be shy with bold colors, even during the dreary cold weather months. A brightly colored sweater can instantly brighten up your look and mood. Pair a patterned or vibrant sweater with neutral bottoms to allow the sweater to pop.
