Go long
Find a longer length knit or a knitted dress, and pair it with some leggings or super skinny jeans – and of course, gorgeous knee-high boots.
Crop it
If you want to sport a cropped knit, make sure there’s magic in the details. A metallic finish looks classy and chic. Pair with a bright high-waist pleated skirt to bring colour to the dull winter days, and to hide a tummy. A block heel will finish off your look.

Sporty
It’s all about sleeves this year, and the balloon sleeve is the one to wear. Glam it up with metallic brogues and side-stripe trousers. Add a crisp white collared shirt underneath for added fun.
