Fashion Trend Alert: Cropped Sweaters

This is for my friend Amy from Resourceful Mommy

Amy has turned into quite the fabulous fashionista!  I must say, I am so proud.

A couple of weeks ago she emailed me about this new “cropped sweater” craze.  Sort of like… say it ain’t so, Audrey! 🙂

And well, I can’t.

It is.

Cropped sweaters are popping up all over the place… all. over. the. place.

I think the look can be appropriate and very fashion-forward if you find cropped sweaters that “work.”  What do I mean by work?  Here are some suggestions…

Find something very classic… like this one from Kensie. It’s crewneck, it comes in great solid colors and you can easily wear this with jeans, sweats or skirts.

Find something one that dips in the back for some added “fashion value”… like this Vince Cropped Sweater (this is a little out of my price range, but I love it!)

Find something that can easily be dressed up and or down… like this Cable Knit from Old Navy

Find something that you can easily get away with wearing on the weekends… like this one from TILT with a hood!

BUT!! And this is a BIG BUT…

My RULES FOR CROPPED SWEATERS for MOMS:
1. Never show skin
2. Always wear with a layer underneath
3. Add some beautiful scarves/jewelry accessories with it.

    I NEVER would have known to wear the layer underneath like that. And this is why the world needs you 🙂 Thanks you, Audrey!
