Long Cardigans Worn As Dresses

I have this obsession with long cardigans lately, and all my short ones are suddenly boring to me.  The great thing about them, is they can be worn so many different ways.  Here is one way I styled my favorite cardigan!  Read below for quick style tips on easy ways to wear them!






Quick Tips On This Look:

1.  Wear long cardigans over button downs, scoop neck fitted shirts and wear them as a dress like above!  I wore tights, but if you are feeling bold go without as long as you are fully covered up top.

2.  Wear them with a belt to give a nice shape to the body.

3.  They look amazing worn opened and loose over a fitted tee and wide leg pants or jeans for a 70's vibe!



Hope these simple tips give you some ideas or inspiration to pull out an oversized one that has been in your closet, or maybe even go through your Grandpa's old cardigan collection!  Have a great day and thanks for reading!  

XO  Pip

Hi Pip,
This is a gorgeous look... I'm not really a cardigan person but I love the styling and the way you put it all together. It actually makes me feel like doing a cardigan look.

Thanks for visiting my blog and for your sweet comment. It's been awhile since we actually saw each other's posts since I'm also not really posting as much as before.

Great post and have a lovely week!
