I can wear over a cami or a button down shirt. Very versatile. I have basic colors and need to get a couple more with some fun colors so I can mix things up more! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-cut-of-cardigan-is-your-most-versatile#post-59547 Wed, 08 Apr 2009 02:44:01 +0000 shiny 59547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Winter: V-necks in full-length sleeves, preferably merino wool</p> <p>Spring/summer: cotton V necks in shorter sleeves (short, elbow, 3/4) in cropped or longer... cropped length looks best with skirts, dressses and with fuller, longer tops worn over clams (For my figure, at least)</p> <p>I have crew necks too but I definitely wear the v-necks more often. I also have some scoop neck cardis that are quite fun. </p> <p>Actually, I would probably focus more on COLOR.... I need a black for winter, and a white for spring/summer. These seem to need to be replaced because the color washes out of the black, and the white gets dirty. Then I need seasonal accent cardis too... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-cut-of-cardigan-is-your-most-versatile#post-59522 Wed, 08 Apr 2009 01:22:38 +0000 shana 59522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Elika. I prefer v-necks with 3/4 sleeves. For me at least, they seem to layer better over button downs and cowl neck tops than crew necks do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-cut-of-cardigan-is-your-most-versatile#post-59479 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 19:00:39 +0000 Ellen 59479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>V-necks are by far the most useful to me, at any sleeve length. In the winter I wear the full sleeves, but as summer approaches I'm ready for a couple more short sleeved versions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-cut-of-cardigan-is-your-most-versatile#post-59476 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 18:53:57 +0000 taylor 59476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like KristenKp I love them all for different things.<br /> v necks -with camis<br /> crew necks -for layering with button ups and collard shirts<br /> boyfriend- for ruffled bouses and when I want to cover the tushie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-cut-of-cardigan-is-your-most-versatile#post-59471 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 18:29:22 +0000 Kristen 59471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 'em all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-cut-of-cardigan-is-your-most-versatile#post-59468 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 18:22:41 +0000 Elika 59468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Christine, but it also depends on your personal style and (very important) your body. I think high necklines are more suited for slim arms or smaller bust, and v-necks are the best for a curvier upper body (which explain why I love v-necks and dislike crewnecks </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-cut-of-cardigan-is-your-most-versatile#post-59459 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 17:20:07 +0000 ChristineB 59459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My fave is what you said - v neck 3/4 sleeve. Most versatile by far. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-cut-of-cardigan-is-your-most-versatile#post-59457 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 17:20:04 +0000 Antje 59457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Personally I have not found the boyfriend style as versatile; I wore it a few times but not nearly as often as I thought I would. I'm happier with regular length cardis. But that's of course a matter of both personal preference and what looks best on you.</p> <p>I have different style cardis (crew neck, v-neck, short sleeve, long sleeve, 3/4 sleeve) and the ones I wear most often are the short sleeved crew neck ones, because I wear them over long-sleeved tops in the fall/winter and over tanks in the summer. But I also wear my other ones plenty of times, especially the crew neck ones, at whatever sleeve length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-cut-of-cardigan-is-your-most-versatile#post-59449 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 16:47:04 +0000 Anonymous 59449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those look perfect for summer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-cut-of-cardigan-is-your-most-versatile#post-59447 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 16:40:41 +0000 Angie 59447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are spot on, Debbie.

I see they're marked down to $24.50 now, which is super tempting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-cut-of-cardigan-is-your-most-versatile#post-59439 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 16:27:03 +0000 Anonymous 59439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The type of cardi I've reached for most often this winter is the v-neck boyfriend cardi. In fact, for the last two cold days recovering from flu, I've layered cardi over shorter cardi for warmth. I can wear them with lower buttons done up as a tunic over skinny tight pants. I can belt over them or under them. They are a great layer over tees, cowl necks, buttondown shirts or dresses, even my sweater dress.<br /> I have versions in black, brown, and dark purple. The dark purple gets the most use and the black the least...the opposite of what I expected. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-cut-of-cardigan-is-your-most-versatile#post-59435 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 16:16:05 +0000 Debbie 59435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I need to stock up on some cute colorful cardigans and wondered which cut would be the most versatile.</p> <p>v-neck with 3/4 sleeves looks like it can be used in many ways---and v-neck with short sleeves too.</p> <p>what are your favs? </p>
