My original post on what to wear with brown pants generated a lot of views, largely thanks to a link from Inside Out Style. In that post, I'm wearing these pants with a purple cardigan and burgundy shoes. Another color that looks great with brown is a soft blue. I think navy works too, but I really like the softer blues with brown, particularly a color close to Serenity, the Pantone color of the year. I got a jump on that by purchasing this cardigan last year in the fall. One of the colors in the print of this blouse is a soft blue, so I knew this would work perfectly.

I hope your new year is going well. If you are like me, you are going back to work today after a few days off and a slower time, facing a full on busy schedule. Let's just take it one day at a time. It will be Friday before you know it.

This cardigan was one of those items that I kept noticing and thinking about every time I went in the store. I finally gave in and bought it. I love it. I don't like for my cardigans to be too long or have too much bulk in the form of a waterfall because that tends to make me look shorter and chunkier but this one is a perfect length. It's also very soft and comfy. It goes perfectly with this necklace that I hunted down like a mad woman (it's long been discontinued but I went on a world wide web search after seeing it online). So what's not to love?

 

I've already worn this outfit once with navy pants and navy shoes, so I went with a heathered navy this time and nude shoes. I've got one more idea in mind for this cardigan too, and it doesn't involve navy.

Saturday shopping

I'm having a moment for cardigans right now. Soft and cozy, they are the perfect fall layer. In particular, I've got some waterfall or drapey open front cardigans on my radar. Here are a few of my picks:

You can get the Ann Taylor mesh stitch cardigan for 50% off right now. That's a great deal!

Happy Shopping!

And Happy Halloween!
