If I had to wear one item of clothing for the rest of my life (and it was perpetual winter), I’d wear a black turtleneck. I have a number of black turtlenecks in different weights, and it is totally worth it. My favorite way to wear them is with a pair of skinny jeans and my favorite heeled-booties when I really don’t feel like putting a whole outfit together. It’s such an easy way to look classy and put-together with minimal effort.
If you don’t have any black turtlenecks, you should seriously consider at least getting this one from J. Crew. Their tissue turtlenecks are super thin and perfect for layering. Plus they last forever. I still have one from my freshman year of high school!
I purchased this medium-weight turtleneck from Banana Republic this Christmas, and it’s quickly become one of my favorites. Easy to wear alone, as I’ve done in this post, or layered in any number of ways. I also have a thick black turtleneck, which is perfect for those really cold days. I’d love to pretend that spring is coming and I won’t need it any longer, but it looks like I might be needing it later this week when the temps drop again.
Do you have any items that you own multiple versions of? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
Xx, Kelsey
