I really love the sweaters from Vince. They create super soft pieces in great modern cuts. If you don’t own any Vince I suggest you check out this line for Fall. I will be getting all of my Fall cover-ups from them! This Slope Jacket cardigan in Heather is perfectly stylish to take you from day to night. It has elbow length sleeves and a front single button closure. Available at Shopbop for $245.00.
Coral Ribbed Beater

My ribbed wife beaters are pretty much my favorite shirts ever. They are the best, most-flattering kinds of tank tops that show just enough- not too much- skin. They’re casual and cotton and comfortable, not to mention machine-washable! They’re basically perfect! I’m always on the lookout for cute ones with stuff printed on them and, believe me, they can be hard to find. This one is a very flattering coral color with the cutest butterfly designs. You could wear this year-round- perfect for layering under a cardigan in the winter or wearing alone on sweltering summer days.
These Pleats are Hard to Beat!

This Pleated Strapless Dress by Chloe is amazing. While reading Net-a-Porter’s magazine story titled "Wedding Belles," I saw this item and immediately thought: forget wedding. This dress is one of those hard to find day-to-evening pieces. You could pair this with flats and a cute, lightweight cardigan to go to work. When it is time for your date or dinner and a "quick" drink with friends, you can whip out those heels and a clutch. Get this silk chiffon dress on sale for $3,255 before it goes out of stock.
St. John Collection ‘Santana’ Cardigan
Posted on June 13, 2007 at 10:37 am (PST) | Comments Off
When I was in high school, I loved the charity auction that my PTA put on every year because it was an opportunity to see the women in my community get glammed up in their otherwise suburban doldrum kind of life. And I distinctly remember how much I loved seeing those moms get dressed up in St. John. Those fond memories are brought back to life with this St. John Collection ‘Santana’ Cardigan, on sale now for $709 from Nordstrom. The scalloped trim is refined and the detailing is charming. It brings back memories, except in a much more modern, almost Olivier-Theyskens-for-Rochas kind of way.
Give Me Sunshine

You can call me crazy, but I adore Sonia Rykiel’s Short Sleeve Cardigan with Shirring. Only a fabric mastermind like Madame Rykiel could conceive of a lightweight short sleeve cardigan for summer layering. Bright like sunshine because of gleaming buttons, this cardigan is the perfect blend between couture and sportswear. This cardi is truly worth $345, due to the high-tech blend of cotton and polymade, a polymer containing monomers joined by peptide bonds. Who knew that fashion and science could work so well together?
