Shrug It Off: The New ‘It’ Sweater Trend
We have a new ‘It’ sweater alert – the shrug. While we might feel the sudden urge to go digging into our sartorial past for reference, this season’s tiny sweater is a brilliantly modern iteration. Ideal for transitional weather and the inevitable seasonal wardrobe shift, the shrug reads less like a jacket and more like a particularly chic cropped sweater that stylishly elevates any outfit. Look to coordinated sets to offer up a polished ensemble or keep an eye out for trendy details like knotted fronts, jeweled buttons, and mock necks. Layer it with spring’s trendiest pieces like baggy jeans and fitted tops for a well-balanced look or play up the feminine silhouette with something more romantic – flouncy skirts and corseted tops. Small, but mighty, the shrug packs a punch and your spring closet will be thanking you all season long.
