Sweater Weather

Baby it’s cold outside! Or at least it should be. I have to admit living in Florida has its perks: beautiful beaches, sunny days, and an endless stream of perfectly bronzed men parading around. Ok that last part may not be entirely true, but a girl can dream. The weather is ideal for light layering and a cozy sweater is the best answer for chilly temperatures. As a fanatic for fall clothing, I will make the most of “Florida’s winter” by donning my favorite sweaters every chance I get. Need a little inspiration?

Fall is the time of year that I am able to whip out my massive scarf collection and it gives me an excuse to add to my fall wardrobe. In that case, every season is my favorite.

Knowing what to wear and what trend is suitable for your body type can be more difficult than first anticipated. Here are a few guidelines for fall fashion for every body type.
