Yesterday my mom and I were talking about different trends and we both agreed that our all time favorite one is hands down long cardigans. Living in New England and both being girls that are constantly cold makes the long cardigan trend a clear winner; we can look cute but also be bundled up and stay warm in the winter. I saw this sweater on another blogger earlier this fall and knew that I had to have it, however it took forever to come back in stock. The deep green color is so pretty and surprisingly matches a lot of my clothes. The sweater itself is soft and stretchy, but it runs very big. For reference I am 5'6" and typically wear a size 2 and have a lot of room in the size XS. If you are on the fence about the sizing, order two! Nordstrom has free shipping and free returns, which is a game changer in the online shopping world :) 

I paired the cardigan with one of my all time favorite dresses from Madewell. The dress is definitely more on the business casual end of the spectrum, so I dressed it down a little bit with the sweater and booties. I purchased this dress from my winter formal last year and have gotten so much wear out of it since then. There is some leather detailing on the sides (not shown in pictures) which adds a fun and flirty twist to a simple LBD. Happy Tuesday!
