The Unexpected Layering Device We’re Employing This Winter

By Morgan C. Schimminger

There are certain essentials required for layering during the winter months. Well, at least when it comes to the fashion faithful. Like turtlenecks, hoodies and button-downs. But this season, we’re flipping the script a bit by investing in sheer shirts to wear under all of our other layers. The reason for the switch? Sheer or mesh tops are usually a bit too risqué to wear solo. Slip one on as your base layer though and you’ve camouflaged the revealing section. Our favorite way to wear them? Tucked under a sweater vest. They also really pop under a comfy cardigan. For patterned turtleneck versions, pair them with a basic sweatshirt to up your loungewear game. Once spring arrives, go ahead and sport yours under the aforementioned button-downs. Or cover up what’s left on display with a tank top. Discover the coolest sheer shirts to incorporate into your wardrobe above.
