Whereas many people think about Natassja Kinki's bright pink fluffy sweater whenever they hear the words 'fuzzy jumper' or 'fluffy sweater', I always picture the one Lana had in her collection for H&M. Hence the picture above.
The fashion world has chosen to give its blessing to a different kind of jumper this year - as opposed to the usual cable knit sweater - opting for those warmers that are either fuzzy, fluffy or similar to teddies in their texture. I'm totally sold on this one, you all know I'm all for playing with textures.
Until I find the perfect teddy jumper as well as a cool and versatile angora sweater, here's how I'm planning on styling the number once it joins its jumper friends in my closet.
BLACK FUZZY
The basic fluffy jumper comes in black. It's definitely the easiest colour to work with, especially if you're quite hesitant with making the most out of the texture game. Black lends itself very nicely to acid wash jeans, and whereas you can choose to add black shoes and bag, I picked brown instead. I do tend to replace black with brown whenever I can, sue me.
FORMALLY FUZZY
Can such textured jumpers be included in more formal combinations. I think I may have a valid option here. Take your favourite pencil skirt - in my case, one in plaid obviously - and add your fluffy gem to it. In order to dress it up, I would go for plain heels, preferably in kitten heel form (as I'm pretty much unable to walk effectively in any other sort of heel height). The clear glasses add a little 'geek' or 'secretary' vibe to the combination.
FURRY BUNNY
No fluffy sweater post would be complete without trying to recreate a bunnilicious look. Monochrome is a classic choice, but the fuzziness of the jumper as well as the little ear beanie make the combination a little more fun. The disco pants - usually very shiny - add yet another texture to the outfit, so you can replace them with plain black jeans if you want to keep things simpler.
