J.Crew Turtleneck (wearing a small) // J.Crew Denim Shirt // Madewell Black Jeans
Everlane Day Market Tote // Daniel Wellington Watch // Madewell Slides
I have to admit, I wasn’t a fan of turtlenecks until I found this one. I think I associated them with chunky knits or a 90s mom vibe. Orrrrr my 5th grade uniform where we had to wear turtlenecks or a collared blouse under our sweaters every single day. Bless.
My work gal pals and I used to get into hilarious discussions about whether turtlenecks were universally flattering or not. I was convinced they weren’t, especially for ladies like yours truly with some curves. BUT, I purchased a few of these J.Crew tissue turtlenecks last year and they are a layering work horse!
They look great on their own tucked into high waist jeans, booties, hair in a bun and (pro tip!) small earrings. Since you already have a lot going on around the neck (hence, the turtleneck) you should keep accessories smooth and lifted away from your face. I love wearing this tee as a layering piece under a denim shirt, a sweater or even a blazer. Now that we live in the (very cold) city, it’s the ideal versatile first layer.
Great ensemble! Love the layering!
