When years ago we saw in the street style girls show off their over-the-shoulder sweatersabove the shoulders, were generally classic girls. However, for a couple of years this trend has been able to adapt to all styles, and this 2024 we find the evidence. Below, the evidence of how they are carried out.

The most classic outfit of all, the shirt and pants with a sweater over the back, still works. It can be worn with ankle boots, moccasins or ballet flats. Depending on the twist that we want to give it, it can be a very good option to take to the office, to a day of errands or a meeting with friends. It doesn’t fail.

As we mentioned, it looks good with shirts. However, if what we are looking for is an original look, we can opt for wearing a striking sweater that contrasts with the rest of the outfit, such as one in a very vivid and unexpected color that we would never have imagined wearing before. We are sure that Danish and Portuguese women like this style pattern.

While adding a bold sweater to a classic outfit seems like a wise choice, how about trying contrasting a colorful t-shirt with another vibrant sweater? The mixture, believe it or not, works. It can be pink and red, violet and orange, blue and green. Since we lost fear of color, almost anything goes and there is no matches that’s scary

When we wear XL clothes, sometimes we feel like we look disheveled. On the other hand, over-the-shoulder sweaters have the power to transform that perception we have and add a more formal nod to the outfit. Either with a flowy dress, or with an easy look made up of t-shirts, jackets and loose pants.

Although in most cases we see that the girls who dress best wear this bet falling on their back, there are many who also wear it tilted, that is, with one of the sides of the sweater covering one sleeve. The purpose? Give a transgressive air, and depending on the look, create a very attractive asymmetrical chromatic effect.

As a scarf
You may have done it once because you wanted to protect your throat from the cold and you didn’t have a scarf, but you did have an extra sweater. Well, without knowing it, you were getting ahead of a trend that will fill the streets this winter, that of wearing the sleeves of the sweater around our neck. A great alternative to dispense with accessories and still reign in style.

Although simple designs are the ones we see most in street looks, printed sweaters with artistic details are the best way to turn a basic outfit into one that is the center of attention.

There are fabrics, such as leather or satin, that immediately add elegance. Therefore, when we want to wear one of them for the day, without the occasion needing to be too formal, we can resort to incorporating a knitted garment on top, close to our neck. In this way we create a contrast of fabrics that can be worn both during the day and at night.

Of all the outer garments that we adore, it must be said that trench coats take center stage. They are versatile: they are worn in spring and autumn, but also in winter with jackets. In addition, just wearing them you hardly need anything else to create an outfit that captivates eyes. However, to take them out of their comfort zone and alternate their traditional staging, girls like Alexa Chung suggest adding some knitted clothing on top. And if it’s a cheerful color, even better.

No problem, for these moments, fashion experts have found the solution: add the sleeves of a sweater or jacket just falling on the chest. This way we can give a very sensual look to a look without worrying too much about what people will say.
