How to style your knitwear for different occasions

by Akhona Ndlela

The perfect winter staple is definitely knitwear, which is warm, adaptable, and effortlessly stylish when worn appropriately for any event on your calendar.

It can instantly make your outfit look better, whether you’re dressing for a laid-back weekend, a dinner date, or work.

For a polished, businesslike, and seasonally appropriate look, wear a fitted turtleneck to the office with wide-leg pants and loafers.

For extra warmth and a polished, tailored look, wear a neutral knit vest over a white shirt.

Are you going for supper? For easy, cosy glam vibes, pair a satin skirt with boots and a chunky off-the-shoulder knit.

For a sophisticated yet warm look that’s ideal for events or date nights, pair a wrap knit dress with bold earrings and high heels.

Wear an oversized knit over leggings and sneakers for a laid-back coffee run or grocery run; it’s comfortable without being too casual.

Do you have plans for the weekend? For a carefree yet polished look, pair your favourite cable-knit sweater with jeans and ankle boots.

Getting together with friends? For a stylish look that combines warmth and texture contrast, wear a cropped knit over a maxi dress.

To make it even easier to mix and match your knitwear for different occasions, stick to timeless colours like cream, grey, black, or camel.

Try different accessories, such as bold bags, scarves, or gold jewellery, to instantly transform your knit from plain to striking.

Your knitwear is functional for every occasion when styled properly; it’s soft enough for relaxing and fashionable enough for other occasions, and forgetting keeps you warm when the cold front hits.
