Also, striped jumpers and jumpers with all sorts of bright prints continue to lead the catwalks of leading fashion houses.

This universal color will help hide flaws and emphasize the advantages of the figure, and the richness of shades will give you uniqueness.
What to wear with a blue cardigan is a question that requiresindividual approach in each specific case. It can only be noted that a bright blue jumper harmonizes with yellow, orange, red, purple, crimson, bright green, black colors. This way you can stand out and attract attention. If you want to look elegant and reserved, for example, at work, then it is better to combine blue with more muted colors, such as peach, white, silver, light gray, pink, lilac, blue, blue-green, dark blue. What to wear cardigans with also depends on the image you want to create. If you prefer a bold youth style, then models with bright colors and a variety of prints will suit you. If you use a cardigan with fasteners, you can leave it unbuttoned, while putting a belt on top and thereby emphasizing the curves. The look should be complemented with a T-shirt or top, shorts, jeans, leggings or a short skirt, and don't forget about accessories, such as a youth watch, a scarf, chains of different lengths or a pendant like "hand-made". It is even easier to create an image of casual relaxation. Here you can use almost any color scheme, model of any length and silhouette. For example, a knitted voluminous cardigan of medium length with or without pockets, in combination with a light chiffon blouse and leggings, will suit slim and tall girls. For girls who are overweight, a light short cardigan of a dark color with vertical stripes and a shape that visually narrows the silhouette will suit better. If you are short, then the answer to the question of what to wear with a cardigan is shortened, but you should not choose a contrasting bottom, this can visually cut the figure and shorten it even more; but trousers in the same color and high heeled boots will add centimeters to you. Diversify the look with a thin belt at the waist and a large decoration.
If you are a lover of romantic and femininestyle, then knitted cardigans made of thin fabrics in combination with light flowing dresses or maxi skirts are perfect for you. Use pastel colors or a small floral pattern. Be sure to complement the look with a beautiful brooch, a pendant on a long cord and mark the waist with a tie or belt. And finally, if you want to look elegant and stylish at the same time, choose an ultra-short tight-fitting cardigan in dark colors with or without a clasp and wear it over a little black dress or any evening dress. In addition, you can decorate it with a thin belt and put on a pearl bracelet or a gold necklace - it looks very impressive and neat. But what you should not wear a cardigan with is knitted dresses - it looks boring and visually weighs down the figure. To prevent a classic black jumper from looking gloomy, it is better to wear it with bright fluffy skirts, denim shorts, cheerful T-shirts, floral dresses, interesting accessories and colorful leggings. And if you really want to stand out, then put on a cardigan back to front and hang a large pendant in the front. And remember, no matter what you wear your favorite thing with, the main thing is that you feel comfortable and happy in this look. After all, only you are the creator of your style, unique, like your personality! We recommend reading:
