How you SHOULD be wearing your Cardigan.

by Miss Style on Wednesday, February 22, 2012

It's no secret that Cardigans are cool. Or warm, for that matter...see what I did there? Bad puns aside, There's a certain way you should be wearing these essential wardrobe pieces that you may not have though of before. Remember shirts? Well, being that those things still exist, I suggest making your cardi's into shirts.

GASP. NO. Miss Style, are you sure?? Cardigans are supposed to be worn ON TOP of something! They're practically sweaters for god's sakes! Cool your jets, I'm here to help. Let's go through this, step by step. First, choose your cardigan of preference. I'm a cheap-o, so I prefer Old Navy's line of tight fitting ones. They come in all different colors, and aren't baggy like boyfriend cardigans so they work nicely as a top instead of a sweater.



I have a white and a black, here's how I wear them. Maybe you can wear them like me too and we can be like twinkies.



I own this exceptionally baggy cardigan from Old Navy. Now, it's not new. That is what this post is about, teaching you how to repurpose items in your closet you may not have realized you can use a certain way. I've had this for a long time, and at a point it didn't fit properly! It was too small.. (cue the sob story about how I lost 70 pounds and none of my clothes fit anymore). Now I can wear things like this as cute baggy tops with skinny jeans! Don't forget to wear a cute little bra underneath in case it pops out unexpectedly. 


Oh and don't forget to wear your leopard print slipper/flats you bought a few weeks ago with it as well. I mean, come on guys it doesn't get cuter/easier than this. 

What do you do if you have a tighter, body hugging Cardi, though!? Hey, can we simmer down a minute? Don't worry. I've got a solution for those too. So demanding.


I wear this white cardigan a lot. It's also from Old Navy, and the outfit doesn't get less complicated than this. I usually either pair it with a cute mod skirt, or high waisted shorts like these. I also sometimes tuck it into pleated chiffon maxi skirts. It's the perfect thing to wear on days where it's not too hot, and it's not too cold. It's like a cozy blouse. 


Don't forget to wear your cute heel boots with it! You guys, heeled boots are SO HOT right now. Do it.

Go get your cardigans and wear the shit out of them. Also, like my blog on bloglovin. Because I love you and you should love me too. 
Don't forget to look out for my new bloggers this week as well! Madi's post will be tomorrow and Corey's will be sometime later this week! Get excited!
