High necklines have been a winter staple for almost a decade, but they needn’t be boring
Yup, I’m still in a polo neck. This is, I believe, the eighth year running. Getting on for a decade since a high neckline became an October-to-March wardrobe staple. But I’m not complaining. Far from it, in fact. The polo neck is a win-win, being both practical and a bit chic.
The one I’m wearing here isn’t the basic kind, as you might have noticed. This fancy high neck is what I call a mad-on. Like an add-on, but – you guessed it. To make an impact, you don’t have to get dressed up from head to toe like a Christmas tree. You can just add one or two elements that are a bit extra. You could wear simple trousers and sweater, but add a velvet headband and big sparkly earrings. Or, as I’m wearing here, you could switch up your go-to navy crew neck over cream polo neck combination, so that you’ve got sequins at the neck and cuff.
