Seasonal slogan sweats

Posted on December 16, 2012

As the winter days and seemingly Arctic nights roll in all too fast, there’s no reason why we can’t stay fashionable. In fact, ’tis the season to be stylish, with layers, knits and all other seasonal staples.

But the one trend which is making a return; the trend that’s in the same generation as a lot of us… the nineties.

Winter always brings out the best Christmas jumpers and thick knits, but this year there’s a new face on the scene: sweaters. And lots of them. Slogan sweats are set to splash all over the stores, with graphic prints and slogans in all forms. With all this chilly weather, what better way to freshen up the Christmas jumper approach than to snuggle down in a long-sleeve sweater.

Elle magazine says:

It’s once, twice three times a trend. And after spotting them on Alexa Chung, Kate Moss and Laura Bailey during London Fashion Week and then again on a handful of other A-listers, it’s confirmed; slogan sweaters are happening.

Celebs are all over this, from Pink to Alexa Chung; the FROW to the stage. And whatever your colour, style, shape or size, these wordy garms are not only ‘bang on trend’ as Mr Wan would say, but cosy for the chilly Christmas.

Some are funny, some well known quotes and some just eye-catching statements, but the one thing they are all is perfect through the season.

It’s Christmas time; mistletoe and STYLISH SWEATS. Add a little nineties naughtiness to your winter wardrobe and treat yourself this Yuletide.

Here’s some best picks from online and the high street to give you a little fashpiration.
