Dressing up the Everyday Sweatshirt

October 17, 2017

For a minute there it felt like fall here in California—we’re currently in a heat wave now. But in those brief cool Fall days I realized how much I love a simple crewneck sweatshirt. I’ve accumulated a few lately and wear them non-stop in my everyday life. The more I’ve worn the casual terry favorite, the more I’ve discovered a few ways to “dress up” that piece we normally reserve for hiking days and at-home movie nights.

Grab a pair of bold earrings… 

I’ve been really into chunky round shapes for daytime and dainty gold hoops for evening.

Pair your sweatshirt with leather…

Leather skirt, tight leather pants a classic leather jacket… a crewneck sweatshirt is the perfect casual balance that will give you that cool girl vibe.

Go high-waisted with your pants…

Giving your sweatshirt a tiny tuck into some high-waisted pants shows of your figure and looks more polished.
