I was inspired by Altuzzara’s cardigan look and decided to go for a preppy-meets-minimalist inspired look with this fuzzy cropped cardigan. Simple but cute—just like me!

Below are ten sweaters that should inspire you to incorporate this ever-popular piece in your wardrobe just in time for winter.

My Mother And I: A Tale of Two Completely Different Styles

Once my mom became a wife and a mother, her style completely changed. She always told me that it was because she wanted to set an example for me. As I’m riding out the wave of my late 20s, I wonder if my style too will change as I begin the next chapter in my life of getting married, killing it in my career, and perhaps kids…
