The Perfect Fall Cardigan
The weather starts to cool down and as you step outside your hear the crisp crunch of leaves under your new booties you just snagged from TJ Maxx. These are just a few of my favorite things about fall. While summer will always be my favorite season I truly believe when it comes to fashion fall has to be my favorite.
Why you ask? All of the clothes are just so comfortable from oversized sweaters to leggings. I just feel so confident and comfortable in them. One staple of fall fashion that is not going anywhere is the cardigan. If you saw my Friday Favorites post last week you would know I love cardigans right now. They are perfect for transitioning those summer tanks you love so much into fall.
I snagged one a couple of weekends ago at Charlotte Russe and just had to share it with you. Back story when I went shopping that day I really wasn't looking for anything in particular just some new cute fall items. I found this oversized maroon colored cardigan at TJ Maxx, but after looking at the line I quickly decided it was not worth the 20 minute wait. So, I put it back and from then on I was on the hunt to find the perfect cardigan. I looked pretty much all day and as we were leaving the mall my husband said why don't you look in Charlotte Russe. I did and I found not only one, but two amazing cardigans that will definitely be on repeat this fall.
A few suggestions when shopping for the perfect cardigan.
-Chose a color that goes with a lot
-Chose one that is not too fancy or too casual
-Spend a little more than normal (you are going to get a lot of wear out of it)
The cardigan that I am currently obsessing over is my forest green cardigan. It is perfect for dressing up or dressing down. The way I styled it in the images below was an in between since I added wedged booties to the outfit.
Shop My Look:
Top: Kohls (wearing a small, runs true to size)
Cardigan: Charlotte Russe (wearing an xs runs bigger)
Pants: Old Navy (wearing size 0, runs true to size)
Shoes: TOMS (wearing size 6, runs true to size, linked similar)
I can't wait to style this cardigan in more ways. Don't be surprised if you see me wearing this cardigan around my house with a t-shirt and yoga pants because it is just that comfortable.
