Can’t Live Without: Cardigans

The one item of clothing in my wardrobe I can’t live without has to be cardigans.  I could wear them anywhere, any day, anytime.  I embraced them a few years ago when Mark Ronson was doing the geek chic look and have continued to work them into different looks each season to put my own style into the trend.

My favourite Marc Jacobs Cardigan from Marc by Marc Jacobs A/W 09/10

Why?

Knitwear can add a quirky twist and some texture to a simple look that could be in danger of being bland without it.   It can pull the look together and a must have if you want to work the Spring/Summer 2011 preppy trend.

H&M S/S 2011

How to wear the look

Go for fine knits in the summer and wear it unbuttoned over a t-shirt.  To be on trend for spring 2011 an oversized cardigan and a loose fitting t-shirt will put you on par with the fashion elite.  In the evening go for a fitted cut that can be worn over a shirt and tie. In the chilly winter months hit go for a chunky knit and wear it with everything!

Where to buy?

My favorite designer brands for cardigans are Marc Jacobs and Paul Smith.  All Saints and Fred Perry are a good option if you are looking for top end high street and H&M and Topman are perfect if you don’t want to break the bank.
