How to combine a pleated skirt with a sweater?

A pleated skirt can rightfully be called the most versatile wardrobe attribute, because it can be combined with absolutely any thing. Classic blouses, trendy T-shirts, stylish jackets and even warm sweaters will do. Let's take a closer look at how to wear a pleated skirt with a sweater and how to choose the right accessories and shoes for such an outfit.

First you need to decide on the sweater model. It is worth immediately excluding the option with a high neck with a zipper, since a beautiful combination with a skirt in this case will not work. Due to the zipper, the sweater is difficult to fit beautifully in the waist area, and in a straight form with such a skirt it will look ugly.

Thin knitted sweaters made from natural angora wool or other soft-touch materials are perfect. Due to the fitted style of such sweaters, they can be easily tucked into the waistband of the skirt and complement the image with an elongated jacket.

You should pay attention to the oversized models, which, despite their bulkiness, and sometimes coarseness, give the image more femininity. A sweater of such a model can be simply put on over a skirt if you want to hide the imperfections of the figure behind it, and in order to emphasize the waist, it will be enough to tuck a small section of the lower edge into the skirt belt.

A classic sweater-sweatshirt is also perfect, which, when combined with a pleated skirt, will help create a conservative sophisticated look. This version of the outfit, in order to make it brighter and more creative, can be supplemented with accessories or additional elements of clothing.

To create a creative and at the same time romantic look, we recommend choosing a long sweater with voluminous sleeves. But by itself, this model will not be very harmoniously combined with pleating, so the image must be supplemented with appropriate details in the form of a belt and other accessories.

The image with a sweater does not in any way limit the possibility of complementing the outfit with various kinds of shoes. But depending on your choice, the combination of a skirt and a sweater can sparkle with completely different colors and acquire a certain character.

For example, an outfit with sneakers will emphasize your individuality and independence, as well as give the image a certain lightness. But it is worth considering some rules for wearing sneakers with everyday clothes - shoes designed exclusively for sports will not fit into an outfit, so more sophisticated models should be given preference.

An outfit with a midi skirt and a voluminous sweater will perfectly dilute the shoes with heels. Depending on the weather conditions and individual preferences, it can be sophisticated stiletto heels, trendy high boots or classic ankle boots.

In some cases, a combination of these two wardrobe attributes can be complemented by neat ballet flats. But it is worth paying special attention to their choice, since some models wear out quickly and look sloppy.

As for the color scheme of shoes, you should select a pair individually for each outfit. In some cases, shoes can become a bright accent that sets off the whole image, while in others - a stylish pair is just an addition.

Almost any combination of a pleated skirt and a sweater can be complemented with a belt, but in each case it will be a different accessory. For example, for a long sweater, a belt with a wide elastic band, which is attached at the waist, is suitable, and for a neat knitted product tucked into a skirt, you can choose a leather belt with a beautiful buckle.

Rarely what image can do without a bag. This accessory has long been not just a stylish addition, but also a functional detail of any outfit. The main thing is that the bag does not overload the combination of a skirt and a sweater, so some peculiarities should be taken into account.

With regard to the choice of other accessories, it is recommended to proceed as follows:

• you can complement the outfit with beautiful glasses in a thin frame - these can be sun-protection or decorative models with transparent glasses;
• you can use watches or bracelets as accessories, but it should be borne in mind that the sleeves of a sweater are denser and more voluminous than those of light shirts and blouses, so it is worth picking up massive jewelry for your wrist;
• in addition, you can pick up beautiful accessories for the neck and hair, and the finishing detail will be neat earrings that match the style of the outfit.

For an example and to facilitate the task during the compilation of the image, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with some options.

• A sophisticated combination of a white sweater and a light beige pleated skirt. The outfit is successfully complemented by brown boots and a white belt bag.

• A beautiful light pink velvet skirt blends harmoniously with an oversized beige sweater. And nude pumps and a small bag add a touch of sophistication to the outfit.
