The Long Cardigan

Truthfully, I never let the long cardigan live up to its full potential.  Within my wardrobe, I’ll admit, that I felt a little stuck in regards to styling this particular piece.  It’s not as though the word ‘cardigan’ ignites excitement.  A long, duster length on a cardigan – now that’s fun!  I consulted with my “personal stylist” (it’s just Pinterest you guys, the best outfit inspiration), and saw a similar combination to this.  When I realized that I had all of the items to make it happen, I was also pleasantly surprised that it worked on me!

I’d never really given the long cardigan a fair chance, but it really is such a versatile piece.  That long line is incredibly flattering and I really liked layering it over a button up.  Pairing it with a Canadian tuxedo AND with a faux leather pencil skirt, I’d say that the duster cardi has earned a top spot.  I’ll be doing a winter capsule wardrobe, and I have a feeling this one will definitely be a part of that!
