HOW TO STYLE : Cardigans /fashion

CARDIGANS so VERSATILE

The cardigan is one piece of clothing that really is the most versatile item for anyones wardrobe.
Handy to throw on when it gets chilly, wear it over dress, slack or jeans,joggers or track pants. They never really ever go out of fashion, it is more or less a staple in the wardrobe.
Dress it up or down - you can't go wrong with having one or two in your closet.

I have a assortment of longer sweatercoat styles in black, grey , navy and brown that I more or less added to over the years. It is one piece that sticks around. In wool for warmth, cotton knits in summer, or a cashmere version well the best. its always nice to have a choose to pick from and wear.

Styling it with different belts or scarfs long or short or a fur (faux collar) to give a look of glam. And of course super chic with those over knee boots or newest sock boots.

My love for the longer cardigan is the fact they are so versatile . Great to wear on a chilly morning, when running out on errands . Light and easy to carry too - especially when travelling..( airplanes.trains autos) and simple to pack.

So here are a few smart looking and stylish cardigans to wear now or later,

CLASSIC LOOK , for work or casual. sporty look or with leather slacks-

A BIT OF COLOUR nothing like some colour in the dreary winter months.

PEARLY DETAILS a more dressy version but would look great over a slip dress, sheer dress or for the holiday office party, silk pants and top.

TOASTY WARM IN THIS HOODED LINED VERSION.

SOMETHING DIFFERENT I have to say I love color and prints, and when I saw the work of this Kenyan photographer Thandiwe Murui , I was in AWE. Such vibrant prints that make a statement . The prints or the checkerboard are definitely eye- catching. ( I happen to have a checkerboard top that I wear as a coverup) This might not be for everyones taste, but sometimes it is fun to be a bit wilder! THE SWIRLS love this print and the colour combination . Vibrant and fun! A MOD- FLORAL this print that looks like a Sunflower is perfect for summer. JUST BLENDING IN CHECKERBOARD ANYONE? find out more about her work here Thandiwe via BBC images via Thandiwe Murui

INSTAGRAM REAL STARS?

WONDER IF SHE IS REAL? How many people follow their favourite instagram and feel perhaps this is what a real person looks like and maybe lives like. I am not talking celebrities like Rihanna or Kardashians or any of the other major celebrities . I am not a big follower of instagram, but for those that are there are a few surprises such as one very popular Instagram Star is actually a virtual reality image, not a REAL person.

Okay maybe its like following a cartoon hero, i.e. SUPERMAN or WONDERWOMAN - but this we know are only characters not REAL PEOPLE. These so called stars gorgeous , flawless and h
