Lately, it’s been raining cats, dogs, elephants and the entire zoo in Nigeria and sometimes the unpredictability of the weather upends our choice of style; one minute we think the weather is okay for a power suit, the next minute we’re leaking sweat and regretting our entire life’s decisions. However, the current weather is such that an in-between fashion piece is ideal. A turtleneck is that piece.
This weekend, grab yourself a turtleneck top or a dress and style this versatile piece whichever way you deem fit. But if you are finding it hard to put together the perfect outfit of the day (or night), follow our style inspirations below.
Layering
During really cold days, layer your turtleneck with a sleeveless dress.
Cropped turtleneck top
You don’t want to wear a long-sleeve turtleneck top when the weather is a tad warmer. If you’re unsure, you can grab a cropped turtleneck top to kill two birds with one stone – you get to show off your toned midriff and let air in.
Pair with a skirt
If you think you can’t rock a turtleneck at night for some night time glam, think again. Pair your cropped turtleneck top with a high-waist side slit skirt, drawing the right attention to your toned legs.
A dress
This turtleneck Ankara dress was featured on your Traditional and Contemporary column for this week and we love absolutely everything about this look. This sophisticated, feminine dress can be worn to a wedding, a dinner date or even to work – depending on how you choose to style it.
