This Jumper Styling Trick Will Elevate All Your Basic Winter Outfits

There's nothing better than discovering a styling trick that, for zero-cost, will improve your outfits tenfold, and breathe a new lease of life into your daily wares. And lately, some of our fashion friends have been championing one particular styling trick. 

We've long been knotting jumpers around our shoulders. However, we typically do this in the warmer months, when said jumper acts as a speedy solution should the weather change unexpectedly and the T-shirt it's layered over simple won't suffice. However, over the past week, we've seen countless influencers styling jumpers over their, well, jumpers, making for a very stylish and toasty ensemble you can copy immediately. 

The principle is simple: throw on a chunky jumper, and then layer another over the top, either knotting the sleeves around your neck or by carefully shoulder-robing it. That's it. Everything else—be it the jumper shape, the neckline, the thickness or the colours—is entirely up to you. But should you be in need of some visual inspiration, keep scrolling to see how to wear two jumpers at once.

Style Notes: Most try this trend using crew-neck or roll-neck knitwear, but not Vanessa. Instead, she has opted for two grey v-neck sweaters—with a white T-shirt underneath to help keep the chill at bay.
