I am so on team cardigan. They are so much easier to fit my broad shoulders and slim hips as on the top I am a 14 and the bottom a 10. Blazers always have the waist too high up, the sleeves too wide and the hips can be absolutely swimming. I look larger in blazers but a custom made one is perfection...
I do really worry about frump factor and really think that is my rubric though so...

Today I planned to wear my new blazer but with the cold am batting for silk short sleeve t, merino wool turtle and wool/cashmere sweater coat. Pants are also cords instead of skinnies.

Another Team Cardigan member here. I have broader shoulders and a smaller waist, so cardigans are easier to fit than jackets/blazers. Being petite, I can scrunch sleeves if they're slightly too long, rather than having to alter like a jacket/blazer. I wear cardigans year-round for warmth (indoors to combat AC during the summer), as I run cold. But it's nice to be able to pull one off if the temperature changes, versus a pullover that isn't so easy to remove. I will never stop wearing them, no matter how not-trendy they might be!

Sounds like you're not the only one, IK I do like the cardis of yours that I've seen -- more interesting to my eye than the twin-set cardi or waterfall cardi.

However, as much as I've tried to incorporate cardis into my wardrobe, it's just not happening. I'm much more of a jacket type of girl. I do have one cardi that I wear though--it's an All Saints super cropped, super deconstructed (asymmetrical, raw edges, pockets hanging out) kind

I love cardigans, except for crew necks. They've been a wardrobe staple for me nearly all my life. I had a dress in kindergarten that had a matching cardi, and I felt like the Queen of England.

My Halogen tipped cardigan is the only one that I'm wearing these days - one of my first Nordstrom purchases and very comfortable. Someone, maybe you or Zapotee(?), commented on how that type of cardigan can be difficult to style and I have to say I agree. I basically wear one or two tops with it. No matter how many others I pull out to try I end up sticking with the standbys. But, I still like it!

Now that I think about it, I don't think I've worn my cardigans once this season. Though I'm not planning on getting rid of them.

I can't live without my cardigans. Nothing beats the practicality for my lifestyle and even more so with a baby now. I am just now plotting my next cardigan purchase.
