Aran sweater
First up on our list is the classy and textured Aran sweater. These pieces came back into the trends a few years ago and they are more fashionable than ever. Aran sweaters are the perfect balance between cool and classy, so if you love wearing them, those are probably the vibes you give off. If those are the vibes you wanna give off and you’ve not got an Aran sweater yet, jump on Gaelsong and get yourself one. The texture, the quality and the meaning behind the stitches come together to show that you are thoughtful about your clothing choices and you value comfort as much as style. The way you pair your Aran sweater is also important, but this piece on its own will give you that part elegant, part cool look. You can wear it with dark jeans and boots for a more casual, outdoorsy outfit, or with chinos and a long coat for something more elegant. The Aran sweater’s timeless pattern means it never really goes out of style, and it instantly adds the complex textures to the simplest outfit. Think of it as your go-to piece when you want to look effortlessly put together.
Half zip-up
Such an understated style of sweaters, half zip-ups are beginning to appear in the trends again. Not sure what the practicality purpose of the half zip-up is, as it doesn’t really look like it does much for comfort. But the fact that you sort of have a collar on a casual sweater definitely gives it that interesting style factor. If you like wearing half zip-ups you probably give off “nice guy” vibes. You know, that kind and nerdy guy who isn’t too bothered about his looks, but still dresses nicely. That’s the type of energy that this sweater gives off. It looks clean and smart, but also pretty chill, so it goes well with many pieces in your wardrobe. If the color is toned down as well, you’re nailing that “nice guy” look. These sweaters look great layered over a plain T-shirt or a plain shirt for a more preppy vibe. Pair them with jeans or tailored trousers and sneakers, and you’ve got an outfit that works perfectly for any casual office day or a weekend brunch. They’re simple but versatile, and that’s what makes them worth keeping in your closet.
Hoodie
This is probably the ultimate staple in a man’s wardrobe. Hoodies are very popular pieces and they’ll probably never lose their popularity. They’re practical, they look good and they’re super cozy. If you love wearing hoodies, you probably give off very chill and comfy vibes, the sort of person who’s up for anything and ready for a small adventure. Hoodies are so practical as well that they suit a lot of personalities, so depending on the color and design of the hoodie you wear, you probably make the look more personal. They can be worn with joggers for a lazy Sunday look or dressed up with a jacket and jeans for a street-style feel. A neutral-toned hoodie layered under a trench or denim jacket can make you look effortlessly cool while keeping things casual.
Turtleneck
We’ve left this one for last because this one’s not really for everyone.Turtlenecks are probably the most elegant option for a sweater, also a very tight fitting one usually. If you’re someone who likes to wear turtlenecks, you either love to dress up, or you like to show off your figure. Turtlenecks give off “put together” vibes usually, as they show that you’re in shape and you probably have a pretty important job as well, if you’re gonna be so dressed up. They are a great sweater to make a good first impression, so the next time you need to meet someone important, make sure to get your turtleneck ready.
