Office day
The second option is for those who are looking for a stylish and professional outfit to wear at the office. A cardigan is the perfect piece for a smart casual look, all you have to do is pair it with a collared shirt and add some elegant trousers.

Casual
If you are more on the sporty casual side with your outfits, this one’s for you. Cardigans can look amazing in a sporty outfit and it’s a good way to elevate one. Try pairing a chunky knit cardigan with a pair of distressed jeans and a basic t-shirt. Finish off the outfit with a pair of comfortable sneakers, a messy bun and some simple accessories and you’ve got yourself a comfortable and put together outfit. For a bold approach on this look, get the cardigan in a vivid color. Bright greens and pinks are very trendy at the moment and they go well with denim colors as well.
Sophisticated touch
Last but not least, for an elegant and polished look take a neutral colored cropped cardigan, add it on top of a dress that has the waist marked and get a pair of heels to tie everything together. Add some shiny jewelry and make sure your hair complements the dress and you will look and feel like a princess. This outfit is perfect for a family gathering, a night event or a first date.
