The backless sweater is having a moment. I’m not sure whether it’s because we are all craving sunshine and spring time, or if it’s just because we like the appeal of showing off this part of our body, but ladies the backless sweater is feminine, and it’s here for you to style and wear now.

Femininity for when it’s not quite spring just yet…

Yes, you will notice that I have marks on my back. Chicken pox left lots of scars on my back and over the years they’ve faded a bit but they are still there. Am I conscious about it? Hell yes you bet I am but at the same time I don’t shy away from wearing things that are backless just because of the scars. Backless sweater, dresses, tops, anything, make me feel really good about myself and incredibly feminine so I won’t let some scars stop me! Embrace your body ladies, there’s nothing wrong with it! I think thats the firs step to being able to wear a backless sweater – confidence! Just wear it with some fierceness and it already will look amazing. I think that tip works for pretty much anything. Confidence is the best accessory you own.

I think backless sweaters open up so many options for you. Whoever says you cannot wear it right now is wrong. Yes I know it’s freezing, and no I do not recommend ditching your coat to show off you back, but if you’ve got a lovely date night planned sometime soon, it’s the perfect thing to wear indoors! (Valentines dayyyy) Although this is an old sweater of mine, I’ve linked some of my current favourites below, in all price ranges!

What I also really enjoy doing with backless items, is drawing a bit more attention to the area with some delicate jewellery. It’s super elegant and it’s also a very fashion forward way of accessorising. All you have to do is take your favourite delicate necklace and turn it the other way round! Simple!

Style Tip: Turn your necklace the other way around and show it on your back!

Let’s not forget about my Furla bag! You saw me sport it recently on my Instagram when I went to the new Furla store opening on Brompton road! It was such a lovely event (There’s more about it on my newsletter! – Click Subscribe on the top of the page!) I was so excited that I got to wear to style this bag. The pattern is really unique and the colours are gorgeous but at the same time, it’s a great bag to play around!

I find that it really brought life to my outfit here – business in the front party at the back! I paired it with an orange and pink combo which contrasted the blue pattern on the bag perfectly when I wore it to the Furla event! It’s the perfect size as well so it fits every single thing I might need whether it be for meetings, date night or shopping! This post is not sponsored by Furla, I just really love this bag…
