New Cardigans

Monday, May 30th, 2011 | 64 Comments

I’ve been wearing these 2 new cardigans for the past couple of weeks. They’re both from Yesstyle. Yesterday’s is a pink lace cardigan. Soft and thin, I find it good for the heat lately. Great for taking with me into stores or restaurants where it tends to be much cooler than the 80+ degrees outside! It hangs a bit lower in the back too and has little knitted pockets.

Cutout-Accent Knit Cardigan

from MoDN

The beige one I wore on last weekend’s train trip. It’s thicker. It has a really nifty cutout design along the collar and buttons. Like little cutout triangles! It’s a shorter cardigan with a boxy, oversized shape.At first the material was a little scratchy but after washing it with woolite and liquid fabric softener it softened up. Lie flat to dry of course!

I took this about 2 weeks ago I think~

I only got the hang of washing wool sweaters/cardigans this winter. Before, I often made very bad mistakes and accidentally shrank some or caused pilings (fuzziness.) But I’ve gotten REALLY GOOD at washing them now! Even cashmere cardigans! I’m lucky my washing machine has a hand wash cycle. I used to have to always do them in the sink *water everywhere!.*

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY ~~
It feels like Sunday to me since I had it off. I hope that feeling continues so the work week will seem surprisingly short to me. I just finished a crazy late dinner. Sorta feel sick from eating so late. The night just sorta got away from us I guess! So I’m off to get ready for bed soon~~

Oh! I was looking at Pixie Market earlier and saw they had this new shirt in. IT’S SO CUTE! I didn’t buy it or anything, but thought it was adorable with the blue pinstripes and ruffles~! It’s sheer, I’d of course wear a cami underneath, haahaa!! I’m not some brave soul that opts for just a black bra or less
