One can never have too many cardigans...whoa deja'vu. It is a really important layering piece in my wardrobe for two main reasons: 1). I'm a naturally cold person...and 2). I'm a naturally modest person. Many of my summer dresses are sleeveless and if there isn't a cardigan that goes with it, it's probably not worn much...if at all. A dress without a cardigan is like a baby without a blanket. Dresses have absolutely nothing to do with this post, I just like to bounce around from subject to subject to confuse you.
Really, I just want to brag on this cardigan. Since I can never have too many (there it is again), I'm always on the lookout for good ones. This particular cardigan was (perhaps still is?) available at H&M in several different colors for $30. I put it on my mental wish list, but ultimately passed because of the price (me = that cheap).
Lo and behold, I found this cardigan at ARC's Value Village only a few days later...in the color...in my size...for $6. This purchase led me to question much deeper things in life such as:
Why bother with regular retailers?
Do I dare set foot in an H&M ever again?
Will I be so lucky in my search for the perfect yellow heels?
Will I be so lucky in my search for the perfect yellow heels?
Can shopping be considered a "spiritual gift"?
Who am I?
What is the meaning of life?
So on and so forth.

This looks SHARP! I just LOVE it!
Grrrrrrrreat outfit. Certainly one of my favorites. I would definitely wear it...and I'm not usually an animal print-type!
Sometimes when I find THE perfect item while thrifting, I know it was meant to be for me...and thanks to a God that knows and cares about me.
Lucky (blessed) you! That sweater is gorgeous.
I absolutely love this outfit!! That awesome cardigan looks great with the leopard!
those sleeves are so cool--and you look amazingly long and lean in this!
I love that cardiagan! The sleeves and color are so fabulous!
What is ARC's Value Village and where can I find one?!
Chic on the Cheap
I love cardigans too! I only recently started collecting them. Mine tend to get damaged by the end of the year, I'm a little rough with them. Your outfit is very cute. The cardi is such a fun color and I love the layering!
