Helping women love what they wear on a budget

The Perfect Cardigan

January 24, 2019 by Katie Haller

Grey cardigan
My closet is filled with cardigan sweaters, but for some reason, I always feel like I never have the perfect cardigan.  Every time I turn around, I see someone wearing a cardigan that I don’t have and now want.  Since I don’t buy everything I always want, I have been on a search for the perfect cardigan to purchase.  Of course, it had to be for the right price.  I still try to stick to a $30 budget, but for a cardigan, I set my budget for under $20.  I was thrilled when I stopped in at Target a few days before Christmas and found a bunch of cardigans on sale for 50% off.  Sadly I’m slow to blog about it and it’s sold out, but I will still link it along with a ton of other similar options.

I decided to go with a grey sweater because it’s a really good staple cardigan to have.  I love my neutral colors to layer with because you can really wear anything under them.  For this look I’m sharing today I styled it with my Amazon striped tie front tank top that you all seemed to really love.  I also wore my Abercrombie jeans that I bought on clearance in the fall for under $20!  I’ve decided that my 2 new favorite places to shop for jeans are Abercrombie and American Eagle.  Of course, I always wait for a sale.  I also have been looking for them at the thrift stores as well.  To top off my look I wore my favorite cut out booties, my satchel purse, and bar necklace.
