in my closet

What's the most colorful, versatile and abundant item in my closet? I'll give you one guess - it's got sleeves, buttons, and rhymes with "hard again" ... That's right folks - THE CARDIGAN.

I can't get enough. Ever. Full sleeve, three-quarter sleeve, buttoned, no buttons, fitted or flowy. I usually gravitate toward neutral tones (like gray, black and tan) because they go with everything but I also love gradually collecting bright cardigans to add an unexpected pop of color to outfits.

The burg's weather recently is a great reason to stock up on your cardis. You might leave your house at 8am wearing a cardi, a jacket and a scarf but then by noon it's in the 80s and the only reason you might keep your cardigan on is the cover the pit stains (this definitely didn't happen to me today. definitely not.). Then a couple hours in Carrier later you walk out into the brisk autumn evening, glad you have your cardi and scarf in tow.
