Grey Shawl Cardigan

grey cardigan outfot

Often, I get questions about work appropriate outfits or how to dress up black skinnies. When I was teaching, I wore black skinnies almost every day. I kid you not, I had three pairs that I rotated and a pair of cropped skinnies that I would wear when it was hot. It was easy, comfortable and I loved the way they looked with round or pointed toe flats.

Now that we are transitioning to Fall, I love this Shawl Knit Coat. It’s so soft and not too heavy. It actually feels more like a cardigan than a coat. This is the perfect example of what I would wear in the classroom or a office setting. My old classroom was notoriously cold, so you would always find me in layers. If you’ve read my blog for a while, you know I have a thing for cardigans! They really are my favorite fall accessory and they easily complete any look.

Thanks for stopping by! xx

    I love this cardigan because it’s modern and different than the regular waist long, button front, boring cardigan. You look gorgeous!

    That coat is so perfect for Fall! & I’m digging those black skinnies! Why or why are work places always so cold? It’s like I’m playing a game of freeze out up in here!
