Basics Elevated: Three Ways to Style (and Elevate) Your Basic Knit Crewneck
From casual outings to more formal occasions, knitwear serves as a consistent and (depending on how you style it) versatile wardrobe staple that can transition from season to season. While arguably basic, it is a staple for a reason, and similar to many basic items, it’s important to be intentional with how you style it to keep your outfits interesting. Throughout this blog, we walk through three ways to style your basic knitwear pieces in a way that keeps things fresh.
For a laid-back yet put-together look, pair a classic crewneck knit sweater with your favourite jeans. You can either opt for a crewneck in a neutral colour allowing you to experiment with pops of colour in your accessories or choose a colourful knit and neutral accessories. Complete the outfit with dress sneakers, for a balanced day-look.

Go from effortless cool to smart casual by adding a sport jacket to your crewneck and denim combo. A simple addition that makes for an elevated look. If you want to keep things contemporary - opt for an overshirt. Adding a layer - albeit a sport jacket or an overshirt, adds a bit of texture and depth to an outfit making it perfect for dinner with friends or even workplace settings.
