Sweaters That Don't Make You Look Fat

Knit Wit

Winter dressing often means piling on the layers. And while layers add warmth, they can also add heft, making you look unnecessarily porky. Not cute.

Don't fret! There's no need to reach for heavy cable knit and suffocating turtlenecks. This season, embrace the world of whisper thin cashmere and merino wool.

We're not saying you have to drape yourself in Loro Piana. Quality cashmere is now available at wallet-friendly prices.

Better still, because of its thin texture, knits are perfect for cinching and belting, making you look oh-so svelte and sleek. If you're not a pullover kind of girl, try a slim fitting sweater dress over tights with flats. Or belt a long cardigan over trouser cut jeans.  

You'll be warm and toasty without looking stuffed. How easy was that?
