Cozy Knits and Red Lips

Necklace – Charming Charlie, Sweater – Forever 21

This over sized cable knit sweater has become one of my favorite winter wardrobe staples. I wore this outfit on Thanksgiving Day, and it could not have been more comfortable! A red lip added some punch to my overall neutral look.

Finding an over sized sweater can be hard, especially if you are 5 ft tall! The key is to watch the hem length. If it is a cropped style, it can create a bad cut off point at your hip or midsection, making you appear “boxy.” In turn, a sweater that is too long will make your legs look shorter. Look for knits that are still somewhat fitted, not bulky, and a hem that hits you at the narrowest part of your thigh. Adding heels or ankle boots helps too!
