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:

But seriously, I am wearing the same thing right now except I have on booties instead of heels. I just decided jeans were work appropriate today. 😉 Love everything about this look. The colors are so great and you look gorg as usual.

Is there anything better than a cozy sweater when it’s frrreezing outside? Love the color and shape of this one….and you’re so right, you can dress it up with heels or pair it down with boots.
