Relaxed, versatile and supremely comfortable, men's and ladies sweatshirts are the casual wardrobe's best friend. Here are a few ideas about how to wear men's sweatshirts and ladies sweatshirts as well as what to look out for when buying them.
For a truly relaxed look, wear jumpers instead of a coat in colder weather. This is an easier way to layer clothing and won't feel quite as bulky. In fact, many sweatshirts have the same functional features as a jacket, including warm pockets, hoods, fleecy linings, full or half zips and warm ribbed cuffs. They can then be layered over t-shirts, polo shirts, casual shirts, padded gilets and denim jeans. You can also look for artist jersey through various online sources.
Dress up your sweatshirts
Ladies sweaters can be easily dressed up by adding a belt and rolling up the sleeves to the elbow. Add a pair of denim slim cut jeans or fitted skirt to balance to volume of the top half and finish the look with a pair of flat pumps. Alternatively, wear ladies sweaters with a girl dress and ankle boots. Men's sweaters can be dressed up with a pair of dark wash denim jeans and dark coloured trainers.
Wear your sweater with accessories
Ladies sweatshirts look great with some brightly coloured bangles or bracelets, and a chunky pendant necklace. Equally, men's sweatshirts can look good with a cotton neck scarf and a colourful belt.
Wear your sweatshirts with shorts in the summer
Both men's sweatshirts and ladies sweatshirts make great all-season wear. In the summer, pack one in your suitcase which you can throw on over your shorts and cotton t-shirt in the evenings. Sweatshirts look good with flip flops, trainers or plimsolls so will work with the majority of your summer footwear.
Make your sweatshirts gym bag essentials
Sweatshirts are great for the gym because they're so easy to thrown on and off and look good with classic gym wear. Ladies sweatshirts go well with leggings, vest tops, tracksuits and plimsolls, and men's sweatshirts look great with jogging trousers, t-shirts and trainers.
