While shopping the sale racks, we’ve noticed a plethora of wrap-around knitted or sweater shrugs. They are a great find; cozy, comfortable and perfect layering pieces, but can run the risk of looking sloppy or unkempt because of their drape-y nature. Here is how to take advantage of the sales-like at LF (which is full of very trendy styles mixed with classic layering pieces and is coincidentally having their 60% off seasonal sale)- and make the style work for you. Another great place to search tons of wraps (and is where we found all styles below) is shopstyle.com.
1. For delicate layering, look for styles in a thin knit. Layer with a cotton tee underneath and top off by belting at the waist for a quirky but professional look.
2. Avoid boxy shaped shrugs. The most flattering will drape nicely over your body and have some intricate details that create shape and interest.
3. Look great on the weekend by pairing a bright color or printed wrap cardigan with classic jeans or dress. These are a nice alternative to bulky coats once the weather starts getting warmer too!
