Ways to Wear: Open Front Cardigans

It's the middle of the week again - how about a little style inspiration to get you to the weekend?! As the increasingly-popular cousin of the classic cardigan, open front cardigans are a universally flattering variation of the buttoned-up theme. Their loose, draped silhouette allows these chic, layering pieces to be work with many outfits. 
With a bit of simple styling and creatively used accessories, open front cardis have the versatility to show off major personality and flare. Here are a few of our favorite ways to style an open front cardigan!

1. Belt It

This is my favorite option! I can't think of an easier way to turn a loose-fitting tunic or dress into a shape-flattering outfit! Experiment with the style that you like - there are so many options with belts. Do you like the thin style? The thicker styles? Endless possibilities. 

2. Knot It

Gather the ends of your cardi and tie them in the center creating a simple loop. I recommend this option for the laid back fashionista - like something comfy and easy? This is the option for you. If your outfit for the day consists of a hip-hitting skirt, try this style and allow for the bottom of your cardi to hit right where your skirt begins. 

3. Knot It. Twice! 

Instead of gathering your knot in the center of your waist, why not take it to the side and loop it around again! This option offers a little more visual interest and creates an uber-chic finishing touch.
