Sweaters may feel fresh right now (just like those red cups at Starbucks), but soon enough we’ll all be weary of that jeans-and-a-sweater cold weather uniform. An easy way to avoid a sweater rut is to dress it up with fun details: like zippered ankle-length denim, suede pumps, and a handful of dainty gold rings.
This tunic sweater from Express is going on heavy rotation in my closet. It’s a bit boyfriend-y, and the red + black knit is large ‘n loose, so it breathes. Works dressed up here with pumps, but will also be Saturday-worthy with a pair of sweater leggings + riding boots.
Shop the look:

Great outfit! I pretty much live in chunky knits through the fall and winter seasons.
I love that you paired it with heels to take a more casual look to a whole new level.

This sweater looks great with the skinny jeans. I love the look of oversized sweaters but they just end up looking like a potato sack on me.

I agree that dressing up sweaters definitely helps keep me out of that rut, because I definitely do get sick of the sweater/jeans/tall boots combo! I love this look and how you balanced out an oversized sweater with sleek jeans and heels!

You are quite right – I’ve been nothing but denim for days, which is fine for the moment, but it’s barely even November and we’ve got a long stretch of cold weather ahead of us.
Thanks for sharing how you like to mix it up!
Love this outfit!
Very autumnal!
