FashFash of the week - Cardigans

So as most of you know, I am a huge fan of cardigans, especially in the last couple of years. I just think it's very classy and pretty flattering. In my opinion, cardigans are so back, yet it seems some people are having a hard time believing/grasping the fact. Each and every time I wear a cardigan, I've been called "Grandpa", "Mr. Rogers", or "Pepe". You would think, for someone who cares so much about what people think about him, I would go home and burn all of my cardigans...nope. In fact, I wear them proud and say "Um, this is fashion forward, please get in the 'now'" :)




Cardigans are an easy way to make an outfit look different, and they're also very versatile! You can wear them with a button down and tie (for work or a night out), you can wear them with a T-shirt underneath (to give it a little edge), or you can wear them with shorts in the summer (very Hampton's). I recently bought a new purple cardigan and I cannot wait to wear it with my white shorts in the summer.






Don't worry, I didn't forget about the ladies.

This actually is not a good picture of the kind of cardigan I love on women. I'm hugely a fan of long thin cardigans for women at the moment. A cardigan that is really light, that you can put on, buttoned or unbuttoned, and wear with jeans or leggings. It's a very hot ticket item for me right now. Get on it.

  1. I'd agree - they look great on YOU, but tall goofy looking guys like me can't really pull them off so well. I'd agree that they're "in" right now, but you have to have the frame/build to pull it off or you just look like a jackass. You feel me? :-p

  2. I have always been a fan of cardigans. Cardigan sets...not-so-much...but like you said, long deeply V-necked cardigans are my fave right now...I'm a fan of the striped ones, too...like my facebook pic...versatile and classy.
