I’ve always been a lover of chunky cable knits. The cold shoulder trend on the other hand, not so much. I try to stay away from any garment that aims to draw that much attention to any one body part. I’m not particularly self conscious of my shoulders, and always considered them to be a fairly innocuous body part, but I’d never quite lost my skepticism of this trend. That is, however, until I tried this specific one.

Different aspects of the garment can definitely help or hurt the entire look. For example, if the cold shoulder is too open or too closed. Even the neckline makes a difference. I much prefer this style with a built up neck. Basically, whether this trend works, is dependent on a lot of other factors. The moral of the story, don’t write anything off after just one or even two tries.
