December is nearly over, and that means we are going deep into our winter fashion game. And winter can never be complete without the most reliable cardigan, shawls, jackets, and overcoats. Gen Z shrivels at the idea of wearing a cardigan to a party, associating it as a grandma wardrobe. But the style gurus have suggested a different take on the cardigan — comfortable, open-minded, and adaptable. In simple words, layers are something that you reach for to spice up a look with minimum effort and yes, that also includes the cosy cardigan besides the jazzy leather jackets.

Styling Ideas
Go for unexpected patterns, for e.g. zigzag, Aztec, rainbow etc. in the case of cardigans and pair it with fitted jeans or solid-coloured A-line skirts. You are good to go for the evening.
You can pair oversized mohair with denim jackets or leather jackets and boots. And the short ones can be layered over solid-coloured shirts. To bring more character to the look, you can wear overcoats to seal the style and make it memorable.

Accessories to go
Cardigans always give out a Bohemian look, and to make it more refined, you need to add in silver danglers, nose pin, chic bracelets, and a long chain necklace. Colourful bags are a necessity and it looks best when paired with winter layers.

Shoes
Boots, boots and more boots! You cannot go wrong with them. But still if you think it’s something you are not ready to experiment with, then wedges should be the next best option. Oh yes, there’s also sneakers!
Winter is a short season in Bangladesh, but it is never the dullest. To spice it up further, this year, we request you all to experiment further with items beyond the traditional shawl. Bring back those granny cardigans and party jackets. Live it up!
