My go-to uniform up until maybe two years ago consisted of straight legged dark denim, a girly blouse and a cardigan. As a result of this, my wardrobe probably has about 30+ cardigans in it, in a plethora of materials and a rainbow of colours. They're still a favourite of mine because of how perfectly versatile they are: today I wore this polka dot one again (recently seen here), this time unbuttoned and pattern mixed with dots of a different size.
Wearing: H&M blouse, Forever 21 cardigan, Zara skirt, Stuart Weitzman sandals, necklace from The Bay, purse from Flok

I too own tons and tons of cardigans. One thing I've started doing is belting them around the waist to create different looks... I don't know why I didn't do that sooner! Love the skirt and necklace especially :)

Such a pretty outfit. Polka dots and a statement necklace of gold baubles are perfect together.
Your go-to uniform of the past sounds like what I wear to work when I'm too tired to put thought into my outfit. ;)

I love how you can capture the sun in all your pictures. So beautiful. Also that cardigan is so unique! Usually the polka dots are so crammed together, but I really like the spacing here. Ha, such a strange thing to notice.
