Last week, that little bugger Phil said there was going to be six more weeks of winter. He wasn’t lying – IT’S STILL COLD OUT THERE. Though the spring lines are already hitting the stores, I still have a need to curl up in a soft cozy sweater, especially at work. Admittedly, it’s hard to find a look that’s both professional and cozy. FEAR YOU NOT.
The key is to pair cozy with something that is more structured. I treated this sweater as a long jacket – layering it over a soft black t-shirt (more comfy-ness) and a pencil skirt (less comfy but professional). You could also could wear it over any fitted black dress. Cinching it at the waist, gives it shape and less frumpy. I added a little texture with the velvet dot tights and finished the look with some killer heels, creating the ultimate comfy-goes-to-the-office look.
Shop this look and similar items I love –

Crushing on those polka dot tights — so cute! I’m super bummed about winter being here and continuing; I’m so over the cold weather and ready to not be bundled up all the time.
Prerana says
I’m ready for spring too! If nothing else, so I don’t have to be uncomfortable under 3 layers of clothing.
Audrey Marie says
Such a nice look on you! My office is always cold so even in the summer I’m wearing a sweater. Right now when I walk past the bathing suits in Target and I can’t even imagine wearing one haha!
Prerana says
I’m the same way.. I end up wearing sweaters year round.
