16 Cardis That Will Change Your Tune On Knitwear 

In days gone by, cardigans may have been pigeon-holed to school girls, their librarians and your nifty grandma (who made her own) but lately the cardi has been popping up on everyone from Katie Holmes to the Hadid sisters with a vengeance. 

And with every bold skin-flashing knit spotted in chic places like Paris, we become more convinced on this humble knit. The 2021 way of wearing the cardigan is still fluffy, still comfy (plus trans-seasonal to boot) but there’s a fresh kind of cool that is making this knitwear staple the most wanted item in our closet. 

Instead of shying away from the limelight, wear your cardi proud in chunky bold knits (cue shades like lavender or electric blue), supersized buttons and cute crops. Of course jeans will always be complementary but the benefit of this winter staple is that you can wear it with anything — slinky skirts, trousers and definitely a prairie dress.
