It’s a given that turtlenecks are an absolute *must-have* for fall. They’re ideal when layering for warmth and style. And ~there’s just something about turtlenecks~. The turtleneck (or mockneck) silhouette instantly upgrades your outfit and makes you look so good! But why?
One of the main reasons everyone looks great in turtlenecks is the emphasis on the face. The long neckline draws the eye up toward your face while lengthening your body. They’re the perfect combination of classy and sexy, covering up while showing off the bust (it’s true, even though it’s subtle).

Basically, every woman needs to have 2 or 3 (or more) good turtlenecks in her wardrobe… I mean, I have 3 black turtlenecks alone. These $22 long sleeve knit tops are the ones you want for fall layering. They’re thin enough to be smooth underneath other pieces, but they’ll keep you warm when it gets chilly. The fabric is so soft and it comes in 30 different colors, including striped and leopard prints!
Ok, so how do you wear these best-selling basic turtlenecks to make you look like a fashion icon? Honestly, you can wear these with any outfit. Layer a turtleneck underneath your favorite slip or sleeveless dress for an elegant (and warm) look—bonus points for a monochromatic color scheme. Wear it under an oversized graphic tee with some sneakers for a casually comfortable outfit or wear it alone with a fall flannel thrown over top.
If you want an opportunity to show off your jewelry, turtlenecks are some of the best clothing items to wear for accessorizing. Gold and silver necklaces are a stark contrast to a dark turtleneck; and layering necklaces is easy without the distraction of a lower neckline. Put your hair up to really elongate your neck and face while adding eye-catching earrings to dress up your look.
