5 Fashion Trends That Need Cuddl Duds

Some of this year’s fall fashion trends are seasonally appropriate and easy enough to incorporate to the average woman’s wardrobe — sexy turtlenecks, Katherine Hepburn trousers, 60s glamor, buttoned-up collars — but others seem like trends that should’ve waited for the spring 2011 season. How in the world are you supposed to keep from shivering wearing a mini skirt or clothing with holes in it come December? Here, are five trends that seem a little impractical for the fall season and tips for how Cuddl Duds can help you make it work.

Cut Out Clothing: On the fall runways, cut outs showed up everywhere from dresses to shirt sleeves. Some leave skin totally exposed, while others are filled in with sheer fabric. Keep cut outs real for fall by wearing a Cuddl Duds cami or long sleeve tee underneath any tops lacking full coverage.

Sheer Fabrics: Sheer layering, tight sheer tops and dresses created with sheer draping are all in for fall. Most of the sheer looks you’ll likely get your hands on will be tastefully opaque, but on the off chance you find a must-wear transparent top, do everyone a favor and wear a Cuddl Duds cami to ease the see-through factor.

Pleated Minis: They may remind you of Britney Spears’ school girl fashion days, but pleated miniskirts are back in a tougher and plaid-free (thank goodness!) incarnation. Legs feeling chilly? Add leggings, or double up on top with a cami and hope you can heat up your whole bod to keep those goose bumps at bay!

Lace Clothing: Whether styled femme or edgy, lace pieces are all over the pages of this month’s fashion magazines. But lace, by nature, is a little airy compared to other fabrics. Some lace styles are lined, but for any dresses, skirts or tops lacking lining you can create your own by wearing Cuddl Duds underneath.

Lingerie as Outerwear: Really? Are they serious? You might want to leave the lingerie as outerwear trend for the style mavens dying to make a meat dress kind of fashion statement that will have everyone talking. Even wearing a Cuddl Duds tank under your bra, or leggings under your panties won’t keep you safe from the fashion police! You’re better off sticking to the aforementioned sexy lace dress trend instead.

Beat Office Chill With Cuddl Duds

Hot summer? Yes, but that also means the air conditioning is often blasting indoors in places where you’d be just about the last person to get your hands on the temperature controls. I used to be known in the office for having a “work blanket.” It was a cashmere wrap and I used it to keep either my legs or my arms warm daily in the summer.

An easier solution? Sneak Cuddl Duds under your work outfits. Whether you need to put on a suit or a pair of scrubs (because we all know hospitals get cold!) to go to work, Cuddl Duds can work with your outfits. The cool part is that your coworkers may never know why you’re suddenly comfortable, free of goose bumps and no longer drinking a constant supply of hot tea at work. Whether you choose a tank or a long pant, you’ll no longer stress over air conditioning settings.

If you commute to work, a layer of Cuddl Duds can help you stay warm on the way, too. Chilly commuter trains, subways, buses and even carpool counterparts that don’t share your idea of “room temperature” can make the ride uncomfortable. But if you’ve got a Cuddl Duds Softwear Camisole under your work clothes, you won’t have to fumble to get your sweater out of your bag and onto your body. This way, you can feel the way you’re supposed to feel in the summer — warm!
