Did I say before how I’m a fan of thin, fitted black turtlenecks? They’re the perfect layering piece for winter! You can wear them under sleeveless shifts or jumpers (or even summery dresses, if you’re a beatnik kind of gal). They slip under jackets and sweaters without adding bulk, and they can stand alone with slim black pants or dark jeans. Shipley & Halmos’s 2009 fall runway made a marvelous case for the black turtleneck, as you can see below (check out their complete collection at Style.com for more inspiration). In the meantime, you can find a terrific range of lightweight, snug black turtlenecks at Bluefly.com and eDressMe.com.
