You can say that the turtleneck used to have a bad rap for being considered a bit “old lady” back in the day. Being classified as “librarian” or “conservative”, this classic item has recently made a big comeback and we are seeing this piece worn by style bloggers all over the world.

The way it’s being worn is the differentiating factor of the way it was worn in say the nineties. The main thing to remember is to focus on your silhouette. You don’t want to look like you stepped out of a Gap advertisement from 1992. It’s now all about form fitting or super relaxed..nothing in between.

Whether you opt for a full on turtleneck, a mock version, sleeveless or long sleeved, this item is a must have for this fall and can definitely transition into the colder weather. The fall is all about layering and a turtleneck is the perfect option for an ultra chic look. Here are 8 ways to style your turtleneck from Germany to Spain..
