I’m a fan of argyle. It’s such a great mixture of preppy with a hint of “grandma chic…” if done properly of course!
This “grandpa” cardigan has been a part of my wardrobe for a few years now. I picked it up on clearance from J. Crew at the end of a winter season, and I only seem to get a chance to wear it a few times a year (living in Florida will do that to you).
To make the look a bit more youthful, I decided to add a pop of color underneath, as well as my new favorite accessory: my bubble necklace! I have been wearing it constantly; I hadn’t expected it to be so versatile, but I find myself pairing it with SO many outfits.

Are you a fan of argyle? What’s your favorite way to incorporate it into your outfits?
I love argyle, but I can never seem to find the right piece for me. I think it makes me look like a little boy. As a stick figure, petite, boyish looking gal… it can do that. I love the way you girlied up the look with the necklace though.
I love argyle! I have a hard time finding cute argyle that isn’t TOO grandma-ish, but I have a couple of pieces that I really like!
LOOOVE the bubble necklace & the whole outfit, I like how you put the pop of green under the cardy.
