1. The Cable Knit Sweater
If you have a cable knit navy sweater like this one, then it is best used to create a casual style. Pair it with your favorite jeans for a comfortable and cozy outfit. However, navy on denim is a lot of blue.
You will need to break this up with another color. Wear a long sleeved collared shirt under your navy sweatshirt and let it poke out of the bottom.
You could also roll the cuffs of the shirt over the bottom of the jumper sleeves for an extra pop of color. A crisp white shirt will create a sophisticated, classic look.
Alternatively, you could choose a pale pink shirt, or go for a red checkered flannel shirt.
You could pair this outfit with a pair of brown moccasins, or even a pair of chunky brown boots. Go for a brown belt to complement the shoes, and a nice wrist watch with a brown leather strap.

2. The Batwing Sweater
A navy batwing sweater is the perfect choice if you want to create a feminine, flattering look for a smart casual event.
You can pair it with skinny jeans and stiletto heels if you want a figure-hugging, fancy outfit. This would look best with some simple, elegant jewelry with a bit of sparkle.
Alternatively, you could tuck the jumper into a skirt for a looser, more flowy outfit. Use a belt to accentuate your waist.
You can choose whatever skirt you feel comfortable in – a mini skirt, a swing skirt, a full length skirt – and choose your shoes to complement the skirt.
For either of these outfits, a clutch bag will really set it off and give you an elegant appearance. \
