The One Detail That Makes Sweaters Feel So Special
Regular cardigans and crewneck sweaters get an upgrade when they are finished with intricate details. Adorned with faux pearls, delicate rhinestones, elegant floral embroidery, or other pretty trims, embellished sweaters are a step up from the ordinary. And they’re the perfect thing to reach for if you want to step up your wardrobe in the cold winter months.
When you wear one, our advice is to keep it simple to let the intricate piece stand out. Try one tucked into a pair of high-waisted trousers with suede sock boots, worn with straight-leg jeans and sleek satin mules, or even layered over a chic mini skirt with slouchy boots. If you’re looking for the best places to get your hands on one, we’ve rounded up the 14 best embellished sweaters on the internet. Shop all of them here from Prada, Zara, Gucci, and more.
