how i’m wearing cardigans + the boyfriend cardigan sweater from chadwick’s and looks from other bloggers

Cardigans are an absolute must in my wardrobe. I love the options that a good cardigan gives! Not only do they look fantastic, but they give the ability to dress for fluctuating temperatures. More times than not, I am wearing a cardigan over a graphic tee. That’s the easiest look, my go-to look to be honest!

So, with that in mind, I wanted to share with you a couple ways to wear a cardigan that ISN’T like what I typically do. Although I’m not sharing with you the graphic tee look, I am sharing other easy looks that you can probably create with items from your own closet!

The first. Adding a button up underneath. A simple addition to an easy outfit. I am in LOVE with all things plaid this season, so this is my go-to. Now that I’ve tried out the Boyfriend Sweater Cardigan from Chadwicks, and know that it’s a hit, I will be looking in to their MANY other colors! You can get this in 8 different colors, and it comes in Petite, Women’s, Tall and Misses.

IMG_0768 (1)The second look is a more dressed up casual look. I grabbed my go-to chambray shirt from Kohl’s and added the fun blanket scarf with some earrings. I feel this is a bit dressier than the previous outfit, yet not too dressy for the carpool line. Living in Michigan, we need options when it comes to weather, and this outfit is a great one! And the boots. Yes again for Naturalizer!IMG_0788 (1)

The last outfit is a twist on the normal cardigan. I added a fur vest over top! I saw this on Pinterest and wanted to give it a try. I kinda dig how it turned out. A little extra “flair” if you will. Now, this one would be for more than a carpool line! lol!
