With the temperatures dropping daily, it’s time to start dusting off those cold-weather staples in time for winter to truly begin. From classic blue jeans and maxi skirts to wool coats and knee-high boots, there are so many basics that make up my winter wardrobe. However, more than anything else, I find myself reaching for my favourite cream jumpers to help add a touch of elegant to my winter outfits
Timeless and incredibly versatile, a cream jumper has been the basis of many of my winter outfits for a number of years now. Not only does cream go with literally any colour or pattern you own, but opting for a knitted jumper will ensure you stay cosy and warm without compromising on style throughout the colder months.
However, as a basic I’ve now worn for many years, I was starting to find my cream jumper outfits boring. Feeling a little stuck for inspiration on new outfits I could recreate this season, I took to Instagram to see how my favourite fashion people chose to style their cream jumpers for winter 2024, and I was not disappointed.
This winter, fashion people are styling their cream jumpers with everything from trending aviator jackets to classic wool coats and using sleek accessories to make their cream jumper outfits anything but boring.
From maxi skirts and buckle ballet flats to tailored trousers and animal-print boots the styling possibilities for this elegant staple are endless. So scroll to discover 6 fresh ways I’ll be styling my cream knit this winter.
