This is literally the first long cardigan I’ve ever purchased. Being that I’m short (5’3″), I don’t gravitate towards clothing that has the potential to drag on the ground. 😉 When I caught sight of this in Target, I decided it was worth taking a chance on it. I kept the tags on it just in case I got it home and had buyer’s regret.
Well, I can confirm that this is the coziest cardigan I’ve worn in a long time. The fabric is soft and squishy and sleeves are ever so slightly too long, so it feels cozy. I’ve worn this cardigan a couple ways and have decided I have these tips to offer other shorties out there that might want to wear a long cardigan:
1. Wear heels. This is obvious.
2. Wear it with a monochromatic outfit. I’ve also worn this with an all black outfit, and it looked very chic. It makes the cardigan more of a statement.
3. Wear it with a dress that is shorter than the cardigan. It will elongate your legs.
