There are so many ways to style your cardigan with your dress.
If your dress is on the shorter side, go for a longer cardigan – it adds that comfy yet chic layer. But if your dress is long, throw on a cute cropped one or shrug for a cute Pinterest aesthetic look.
A neutral cardigan is your best friend; it teams up with almost any dress. But, if you'r a fan of color opt for a simple solid color dress..
Is it winter or Fall? Pair your cardigan and dress with a belt around your waist. It will instantly transform and elevate your look.
As far as shoes, boots, heels, flats – you decide based on your dress style and the vibe of your day. And when it's chilly, put on some black pantyhose for a cute and cozy look!
For a casual, effortless look, drape your cardigan over your shoulders. It's that preppy touch that works so well. If you're not a fan of that, opt for an oversized cardigans for that cozy and slightly “cool girl” look.
However you decide to style your cardigan, make sure it fits your own unique style and needs! I always say, comfort is priority.
