How to Wear an Oversized Sweater

November 7, 2017

sweater-tularosa-yael-steren
There’s nothing better than throwing on an oversized cozy sweater when it gets chilly outside. The key is knowing how to wear it!
 
As the name suggests, oversized sweaters have a lot of fabric, which can feel overwhelming. Tucking the entire sweater into your jeans/pants often won’t work, because there is too much fabric and it looks bulky. On the other hand, if you leave an oversized sweater untucked, you run the risk of making your legs look extremely short. So what’s the solution?
 
A cheat tuck! Tuck in a small portion of the fabric into the front of your jeans/pants, and that’s it (see another example of cheat tuck here). Doing so gives the appearance of longer legs because the visual break happens at a higher point (your waist), while still maintaining the oversized vibe of the sweater!
 
Have any questions on the cheat tuck? Let me know in the comments below!
