This post has one outfit formula (same cardigan, a printed scarf, skinny jeans and boots) and two slightly different outfits.
What I wore:
Jacket: Izabel London striped waterfall cardigan (C/O)
Scarf: red and black skull print scarfTee: Marc by Marc Jacobs blossom pocket tee in grey
Jeans: Jeanswest prima denim super skinny jeans in absolute black
Shoes: RMK Chester black ankle boots
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff mini quilted affair bag in fire engine red (on sale in blue)
Why I wore it:
This was such a simple but cosy outfit. Black, grey and a little bit of red. Had to run some errands in the morning, and a trip to the doctors for a checkup for baby T in the afternoon. I went with red accessories as the grey tee has a little red floral design on the pocket, you can see it clearer another time I've worn it (with a big baby belly!). Everything gets covered up with layers in the winter!As I mentioned in my review of the mini affair bag, I don't find this as easy to use as my mini MAC bags, but I'm trying to give it a chance and wear it a little more. I like the shape and the colour!
Last worn: striped cardigan, red and black skull scarf, grey Marc Jacobs tee, skinny jeans, ankle boots, Rebecca Minkoff mini affair bag.
Other ways to wear: cardigan with blue skinny jeans, skull scarf with polka dots, grey tee for a day at the beach, black skinny jeans with a pink top, ankle boots with a maxi skirt, red crossbody bag with blue and a maxi skirt.
More cosy cardigans:
What I wore:
Cardi: Izabel London striped waterfall cardigan (C/O)
Scarf: Stella McCartney heart print scarf
Jumper: Supre knit loose fit jumper in bahamas
Jeans: Jeanswest blue skinny jeans
Shoes: Asos Cleo leather boots in tan
Bag: Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere
Why I wore it:
This looks like overkill, but I assure you all those layers were needed! Single digit temperatures are my least favourite part of winter, and so when the 'Antarctic Vortex' hit I pulled together all my winter woolies to keep me cosy for a morning running errands with baby, followed by playgroup.I was so thankful when we got to playgroup - they had the heater on warming up the room. While the toddlers did have fun playing with my scarf again, this time I didn't leave it behind!
Last worn: striped cardi (above), Stella McCartney navy scarf, peach knit, skinny jeans, tan leather boots, LV Speedy bandouliere.
Other ways to wear: striped cardi with a maxi skirt, heart print scarf with striped skirt, peach knit with leopard print, skinny jeans and a blazer, tan leather boots and a polka dot shift dress, LV Speedy bandouliere with dresses.

That cardigan looks so cosy! I often struggle to find waterfall cardigans that are stylish but this is perfect. And as you prove, very versatile. Just visited the Izabel London website and they have heaps of nice stuff..... Oh dear...
ReplyDeleteThey do have lots of cute things! :)
DeleteWOW I love your cardigan! Looks so warm and comfy!

I really like that cardigan! I can totally see myself wearing that all winter long. I bet it is a nice option with the baby yet it still looks really stylish. I tried to click on it, but I cannot get the link to work. :( I looks great with both outfits.

Aww no, sorry the link doesn't work! I wonder if it's because it's a link to the Australian site and you are in the US? http://www.izabel.com/en/australia/cardigans/striped-waterfall-cardigan/invt/kc52906cn&color=black%20and%20white is the direct link.
DeleteThe scarves are amazing! Loving both - very nice styling.
ReplyDeleteI think for getting me a blue one! ty for a link
I love how much you reuse pieces of your wardrobe and transform them into completely new looks. It's really inspiring! So sorry it's so cold there. I recall our last Artic Vortex and I know they are not fun...Hoping some warmer weather is on it's way for you guys!
ReplyDeleteI'll say it again, I LOVE that cardigan!
It is a great cardigan! It is getting much warmer around here, which is nice :)
DeleteI love the first outfit - the bag really adds a pop of color! I'm definitely longing for winter and being able to layer now (we're in summer), but I'll probably be missing summer in a few months!

Haha, glad you keep your scarf, Mica! Hope the checkup was ok, we have the next one in November. The first outfit is exactly how I like it, black, grey with a pop of color red! Happy you styled my fave cardigan on you, Mica. Beautiful color combo of the second one.

That cardigan is so nice, I can see myself wearing that were the a/c is on too high! lol! And, I'd wear it all winter long. It is such a pretty color and you can't beat stripes.

The cardigan is such a beautiful piece! The fact that it's longer makes it even better in my book, it adds that extra wow factor. Even better that it kept you warm in the cold!

Still loving this cardigan, it looks so nice with such a diverse range of scarves and the skinny pant! I am now in the market for a pair of blue (as in blue) jeans and sniffed around Jeanswest today, the short length was so perfect, I think I'm going to have to go for it in August!
ReplyDeleteOh yes go for it now #noBuyJuly15 is over! If you wait long enough, they often have sales on too! ;)
DeleteI really like the cardi, boots and scarf combo!! Bron x
ReplyDeleteI love the length of this cardigan! Both great looks!
