hat: nordstrom (similar) // cardigan: refashioned target // shirt: F21 // jeans: Paige // shoes: thriftedI love cardigans. I really do. And if you were to peek in my closet, it's really what dominates there. I swoon when I see J Crew's pretty stack of cardigans, one in every imaginable color.
In college, some of my friends dared me to go a week without wearing cardigans. And it was really hard and after the week was over, I realized how perfect of a piece of clothing they are. So I continued and continue to wear them because they just make sense to me. I honestly think they can go with anything and everything and in a place like Seattle, they just work. (channeling some Tim Gunn there.)
So they're my uniform. With jeans, over a dress, with a skirt, cardigans are my go-to.
Somedays I accessorize with a hat. And my friends' dog. Say hi to Oly. We dogsat him recently, and like our little monster, he is far from camera shy.
Are there things you love to wear?

I love cardigans as well! The first one I ever bought was back in highschool! :)
ReplyDeleteI love to wear jackets, probably because I don't own any cardigans anymore. I finally let go of the one I've had since 6th grade because it was finally way too short to be passable. I also love to wear interesting jeans.
ReplyDeleteI was on a cardigan kick for awhile (and your outfit looks super cozy!), but this winter my uniform has been sweater dresses, leggings, and my knee-high boots. I will have to come up with a new warmer-weather uniform soon!

ReplyDeleteHey Oly! I wear cardigans all the time...but I think I wear scarves more lately :) I'm just glad I can keep wearing cardigans (unbuttoned) throughout my pregnancy!
ReplyDeleteMine is really exciting! Actually no, mine is also cardigans LOL. I needed one new cardigan, and somehow ended up with I think... 7 or 8! I didn`t actually buy them new, but still.... ha ha

I really wish I looked as good in hats as you do.
ReplyDeleteI adore cardigans. They're perfect with EVERYTHING.
They just work. TRUTH!
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Big dog!! haha!! I love this outfit + your adorable hat!!!
ReplyDeleteYup. Cardigans are my uniform too. I had students that used to make fun of me for always wearing cardigans. However, they are perfect for layering and you can never go wrong!
ReplyDeleteYES! I have a mustard cardi and a striped cardi I wear with everything. I am eying a triangle patterned Madewell one as we speak. They are so hard to resist!
