So while most of the country is dealing with the deep freeze, fashion mavens are busy at work putting the finishing touches on the 2010 spring collection. The hot new trend – open stitch “holey” sweaters. Think regular wool sweater with giant shapes cut into it. Obviously ups the exposed skin factor if you want to play it that way. Though if you want a more reserved look or are worried about freezing your tush off you can wear a Gap body tee shirt ($19.50) or a tank underneath. You can also wrap a pashmina around your neck.
