A stylish Winter

Written by ogo on . Posted in Cozy Chic Sweaters

Just because the temperature is dropping and the snow is falling, is no reason to let your style diminish. The array of sweater choices is endless – choose a bright color, or a luxe fiber, or a fanciful pattern, or embellishment with bling. Staying warm doesn’t have to be boring.

Keep a selection of cardigans in your wardrobe, to add a layer of warmth with a layer of style. Those same cardigans will double as outerwear for tropical vacations, whether this means beachfront evening breezes or windy nights on a cruise ship, and to ward off summer time air conditioning chills. The right cardigan can pull together an entire outfit – so go ahead and acquire some with prints, fabric panels, embroidery and applique.

Don’t forget the newest selection of wafer thin, thermal shirts, now available high-end, low-end and at every venue in between, to wear beneath your layered sweaters for guaranteed cozy warmth on the frostiest of days and nights.

The sweaters shown in these photos are, or soon shall be, for sale on the OgoVintage etsy shop. Please contact OGO to claim your stake for those not yet listed. Each is one of a kind at OgoVintage, and when it’s gone, it’s gone…
