My eyes glistened with joy when I saw Angie’s newest outfit formula post!

I’ve posted very few WIW examples wearing it, but I’ve been living in my knee-length clove brown cardigan for 2 years now. So much so, the cardigan is starting to look a bit worn. (Not enough to reserve for home only wear, but definitely not new looking.) I’m even considering whether to try knitting a replacement or not. It’s a light knit fabric, so not too warm; also, it’s sensual and drapey. It’s an easy, goes-with-anything neutral in a fabulous shade of brown. Easily tossed in a bag to take on a day trip or errands. It’s probably my most worn topper the last two years.

Photos 1-2. I’ve worn my lone long cardigan with just about every top and bottom I own in all four seasons of weather and fashion. A long cardigan with wide-leg pants gives me 70s vibes. Just ran across these photos of Angelica Huston modeling for Halston in the 70s. Her cardigan is even longer than mine. It’s really glam and chic!

Photos 3-4. My recent WIW outfits featuring my new tropical wide leg pants with said clove brown cardi.

Photos 5-6. Acquired in December is this calf length split-front turtleneck sweater from City Chic.(another sale goody!) Just now featuring it in an WIW post; I’m usually dashing out the door when wearing this and don’t feel polished enough tbh. It really ticks so many boxes! I have been a bit precious about wearing it, despite wanting to wear it to death. Not as versatile as a cardigan but I am tempted to knit/sew a summer version of it too!! I really love wearing it on a co-op day with my sneakers and slim Leigh jeans. Sorry for the small bit of tummy exposure. It's actually a nude camisole and because I'm so tall with such a deep rise, the deep slit can ride up a smidge. (Thus, the cami hehe!) Or maybe the sweater shrunk a bit? I washed it in cold water and dried it flat. But it is a viscose blend, and viscose and rayon are known to shrink with the best of care.
