5 Long-Sleeved Tops Saving Our Last-Season Styles From Retirement

Keep your existing wardrobe out for longer with the help of these long layers.

Bought a fun summer dress just before lockdown and don’t think you’ll be able to wear it now that winter is rolling in? Wrong! With a little clever layering, you can keep those investments in rotation and stay extra warm and cosy at the same time.

Long-sleeved base layers are our unsung winter wardrobe heroes. Add them to anything – a slip dress, a basic tee or even a work shirt – and suddenly you’re covered for the cold weather. We’ve lined up our favourite 5 for you to add to Wishlist.

1.

The Turtleneck
From The Rock to street style queens – everyone is on board with this base layer. Contrast its high-neck design with your low-neck favourites, like a collared work shirt, and add a necklace to accentuate.

The Classic LS Tee
Not as figure-hugging as some knitted styles, the long-sleeved tee is a casual wardrobe staple and a favourite for layering under baggy tees for that cool-girl grunge look.
