Sweaters are closet staples especially when temperatures drop. Although simple sweaters are great for layering in outfits, having a few unique and bold sweaters are a wonderful way to express yourself, even when it’s chilly. Here are a few tips about how to style a statement knit. Rina shows us how:
Nothing beats pairing your favourite knit with your best pair of jeans. When shopping for the perfect knit, I look for pieces that are both good quality and stylish. When I stumbled across this sweater cape by Carmody, there was an instant love connection. I swooned over the unique design and knew it would make a true statement in my wardrobe.

A statement sweater is an easy way to take jazz up your fall basics and can be worn for different occasions. Pair a statement sweater with denim for a more dressed down, yet put together look. Or pair it with your favourite skirt and over the knee boots for an after-work holiday party!

If you plan on styling a colourful statement sweater, try one of the hottest colours of the season: red. If you’re looking more for a statement design or style, try a cape, ruffles or pearl details!

To complete my look, I paired my statement sweater with the newest addition to my hat collection and some patent black booties. I wanted to keep the rest of my outfit monochromatic to really allow the sweater to pop! How would you style a statement sweater?
“Attending private school and wearing uniforms, I always felt the need to test the boundaries. Whether it was with my sky-high hairstyles or slight uniform infractions, I was always looking for a way to stand out amongst my conformed peers. To this day, I still find myself testing the boundaries with my fashion choices and encouraging others to do the same.
