Black Turtleneck's Are A Cult Favourite For Fall

This may sound a tad bit poetic, but if you buy a black turtleneck this fall you definitely wont regret it. Just like the little black dress it seems the black turtleneck has become an instant favourite for style lovers alike. And it has gotten to the point where it has reached no other than cult like status. This is huge because it is one of those Essex items that is truly universally flattering. And besides reaching that iconic place in fall and winter history, it happens to also be made in a variety of different fabrics to suit even the most fashion-conscious person’s needs.

Especially at this time of year, when days are getting shorter and nights are colder, this simple and classic shell top makes for the perfect base layer. In need for a go-to office attire? Pair a fitted black turtleneck into a maxi fitted skirt and a pair of classic pumps or ankle boots. This gives the illusion you are wearing a lovely dress when it is simply a two-piece outfit. And for a little bit of edge, try that favourite no nonsense biker leather jacket. Dressing all in black can be elegant and it never goes out of style. Keep your accessories simple and try silver for a polished look.

Need a casual outfit for the holiday get together with friends or family? Try pairing a fitted thinner jersey like material black turtleneck with a pair of crisp comfy jeans and ballet flats or boots. This is not only a nice way to be casual dressy, but you will make a great impression this Christmas season. Trying to maybe keep up a bit with the trends? How about that dressy casual vibe with a Working Girl feel? Well try pairing a black turtleneck with a pair of high-waisted straight leg grey trousers or add a pop of colour for some spunk. Just make sure that the black turtleneck is the poised star for the entire outfit.
