Among the kind of cozy and cosy rooms that we love to put on on Sundays, the long cardigan mesh is a must. This thick or thin knit that reaches the calves or knees keeps you warm. A cut that reminds us of long cardigans of our grandmothers. But between comfort and style do you really have to choose? How not to look like a grandma with a long women's cardigan ?
Accessorize well, the long cardigan turns into a trendy fashion piece. You just have to respect a few rules and make the right choices. Here are some tips for wearing the long cardigan. We will also tell you about the mistakes not to make with this kind of vest.
The well-worn long vest elongates the silhouette and is incredibly feminine. It is undeniable, it gives the illusion of grandeur. We have XXL legs and a tapered silhouette. The long vest is therefore an asset for most women who wish to refine their silhouette .For petite women , the long vest is not to be avoided but it will choose it mid-length (length at the knees or mid-thigh). And most importantly, it should always be worn with high heels. And if high heels aren't really your thing, know that right now the fashion is for the block heel, a small or maxi square heel that allows you to have much more stability!The long cardigan will also go with curvy women . And again the rule is simple, we always wear it open and with heels as far as possible to maximize the slender effect. But be careful if you have curves or if you are small, nothing obliges you to accessorize your long cardigan with high heels. In reality, it's all about style. The tall ones can easily afford sneakers or flat shoes.
In the casual option, we will stick to an outfit that is easy to reproduce:basic jeans or trendy jeans (mum cut, slouchy, 7/8th jeans) To pair your long cardigan with jeans, prefer neutral shades for your waistcoat (a soft cream, camel or black to be able to accessorize more easily). Good to know:the 7/8 cut brings even more length to your figure. Wear your 3/4 cut with chunky boots or Chelsea boots for a rock style or with derbies for a BCBG style that you match with a long thin cardigan or a chunky chunky knit. But be careful, always go for quality if you don't want to look like you're wearing an old sweater on your back! Note also that leather totally breaks the cozy spirit of the long cardigan to give it a breath of modernity. Perfect for a bohemian rock style! Just pair leather pants or skinny jeans with a rock t-shirt and a long black or beige cardigan.
Risk zone we do not hide it from you! The stylistic exercise can be done, but pay attention to the proportions. Forget the long vest with the bohemian dress unless it's your style of dress. On the other hand, you can wear a high waisted leather skirt with ankle boots and your long cardigan. But stay on mid-thigh or knee length vests. Your vest can be a little longer than the dress or the same length but never too short! On the other hand, the look works perfectly well with winter shorts!
There are so many options that it's hard to list them all. First of all, the option goes everywhere:the basic t-shirt . White will be perfect to brighten up the outfit and bring out the color of your cardigan. If you want something dressier, we recommend a lace blouse to make your outfit more feminine or a top with embroidery or a beautiful floral or romantic print. Do not hesitate to opt for tops with a round neck or V-neck or deep necklines, accessorized with a long necklace or a pretty multi-row necklace.
