How To Wear Berets (Outfit Inspiration)

A beret, in my opinion, can be - and should be! - a wardrobe staple. Versatile, the piece can be used as a focal point, or a compliment, to the right outfit. If you invest in a high-quality piece, it can last you for years. Keep both your head warm and ahead of the game in this French pièce de résistance!

I kept warm in Krakow in a woollen beret adorned with pearls. I created a “gradient” with my outfit, with a purple base, a multi-coloured cropped sweater, and a white beret.
