Waterfall Cardigan

The Waterfall in Waterfall Cardigans

Did you know that the Cardigan was actually named after a region in the UK? James Thomas Brudenell was the 7th Earl of Cardigan - and he is the one that the light knit sweater was named after. Cardigans were worn for many hundreds of years, by the famous and the common folk alike. The cardigan became very popular in the 17th century with the fishermen of the British Isles. These sweaters proved to be important on the cold seas. Cardigans are worn by both women and men - sometimes a man's cardigan is known as a mandigan. Today, the fashion industry picked the status of Cardigans in society, added some extra material at the bottom and called it a Waterfall Cardigan. It is quite a suitable name, as the Cardigan appears to be flowing of the body

Match your Dress with a Jacket to keep warm

Hello Shopaholic Team, I am invited to a wedding and need something to wear over my dress in the evening. Do you have any advice on what I could go for? Thanks for your help, Rosa Hello Rosa, Thanks a lot for contacting us and asking this great question! Our favourite jackets to go with dresses are bolero jackets or waterfall cardigans. A bolero jacket is a good choice for a ball gown whereas a waterfall cardigan matches all types of summer and chiffon dresses. Both jackets are available in a large variety of colours. You can either choose a colour to match with one colour of dress or set a course to a single-coloured dress. One elegant black dress for example can be worn on many different occasions just by changing the accessories. Add a purple waterfall cardigan and purple jewellery, maybe even a purple purse and shoes, which makes your outfit look totally different than adding turquoise accessories to it

Keep warm as autumn arrives

With not long now until autumn arrives, the weather is predictably getting chillier. The walk to work becomes a battle against the elements, and it's time to invest in some new warm clothes. It's not necessarily time for a huge jacket, but a extra layer to keep you comfortable when you bravely step outside certainly wouldn't go a miss. Quilted jackets for women may be what you're after - not as thick and over-whelming as a winter jacket, but nonetheless they'll be enough to keep your spirits high despite the dark evenings. If you're looking at saving your pennies this year, then you could go for a jacket which will last you until spring, ensuring you don't need to buy two different jackets in a short space of time. Alternatively, a favourite of women is a cardigan. I would recommend a lovely waterfall cardigan - a knee length cardigan which provides a chic and comfortable style without breaking the bank

Wardrobe pieces to bridge the season gap

We all know what it feels like to dress for a chilly day in the morning and then be cursing the fickle weather gods by midday. Between summer and autumn, while the weather is still transitioning, it feels like we get a lot of days that can t quite decide if they re warm or cold. For those in-between days, you want transitional items to protect you from the new chill in the air but keep you ventilated and comfortable. One solution is to layer, layer, layer. Give yourself the option of shedding your scarf and your cardigan come unseasonably warm afternoons. Something like a waterfall cardigan is fantastic to draw about yourself in an overly air conditioned office or on a windy run to the corner store, but it s also light enough not to suffocate you when the day heats up. It can go over a range of tops from short sleeves to light sweaters, and the waterfall style is younger and more fun than traditional cardigans

Pulling off women's ankle boots

A great looking women s fashion trend is the ankle boot. It's too high to be deemed a shoe, but not quite tall enough to fall into the category of a proper boot. Though slightly more difficult to pull off than a knee high boot, when done right these can look amazing. The great thing about ankle boots is the large number of different styles they come in. Ankle boots aren t as conservative as traditional styles, so it gives you a little bit more room to experiment. With many trendy styles available, you can really bring life to your outfit with a pair of faux suede boots or something colourful. The most important thing is to remember to pick a pair of boots and match them with an outfit that accentuates your body shape
