Tunic Turtleneck

I gravitate to sleeveless garments.  For me, it's functional.  Sleeveless dresses and tops allow for layering under with dress shirts/blouses or over with blazers or jackets without having the hassle of stuffing sleeves.

For fall, when the temperatures can vary sometimes a span of 30 degrees in a day, layering pieces are key.  This sleeveless sweater is warm and cozy yet your arms are free and as the day warms with sunshine you won't melt. You can easily add a long sleeve tee as we get closer to winter weather.
Note:  You will need to wear a camisole/tank underneath as the side arm holes are long.

I originally styled this with a pair of jeans and suede booties - but that's just so typical, although I have worn it that way on the weekend. But you gals know that dressing for the office is more my inspirational mission.

I paired this with one of my favorite skirts - I call it the 'Flippy Mini'
Confession: I have it in 3 colors

Add a pair of dress boots and not only are you office appropriate but with the high/low hem design of the sweater you're right on trend.
I kept this look neutral but the heather gray would pop next to dark neutrals or bright colors - think burgundy,  hunter green, cobalt blue and pink.
Perfect for a pair of skinny trousers too.

P.S. Life is better when you're laughing :)

In Between

The sleeveless turtleneck is perfect for those 'In Between' situations.  It's not yet cold (in the South at least) but the mornings can be brisk before the mid day warm up and you're not ready to embrace the bundle of Fall/Winter garments but you're over tank tops.

So my suggestion is to go for a sleeveless turtleneck.  It's knit so its the texture of a sweater but without arms you're cool enough to move around.

It's the piece that says 'I'm can't make up mind' - basically perfect for Fall.

Layer it under jackets when the temps do begin to drop.  It's the perfect shell for the office and the weekend with a pair of jeans.  I personally love sleeveless pieces because I don't have to struggle stuffing sleeves under sleeves.

I paired this grey marbled knit with a pair of pinot trousers for more of a 'Fall' look.
Tip: Rolling the cuff of your trousers or denim shows off booties/ankle strapped shoes.
