Looking for a cute, light topper to transition you from winter to spring? Then you must get a long cardigan…the perfect accessory to any outfit, a long cardigan will work with casual and even formal looks if done right. This ain’t your granny’s knit number; these cardigans are cut flatteringly to fit your form and come in soft cashmere and poly-cotton knits.

Already have one? Here are some great ways to get the most out of your long cardigan:

1) Jeans and a tee: Pair with jeans and a tee, flats and a hot bag for a casual cool look.

2) Tights and a tee: Layer a long cardigan over an equally long belted tee and tights.

3) Dressy: Go for an upscale look and pair your long cardigan with pearls and a basic black dress for your next fab event.

In the market for a long cardigan? Check out this cute and affordable topper (available in a bunch of colors) and get to layerin’:

    I love cardigans and plan to buy one. I love the way Blake Lively is wearing her cardigan with a little black dress with pearls. It is classy, but not trying too hard.
