Lust-Haves: Grandpa, can I raid your closet?

If cardigans were an ingredient, it would definitely be a condiment like salt, or olive oil. Weird analogy I know. What I mean is that it adds a subtlety to your dish/outfit, and is a staple in your wardrobe and an ever present option for any kind of outfit. It is especially true in this current weather. Sydney's winter weather this year is basically like a woman going through menopause - nice and sunny one minute, and then cold and moody the next. It's a nightmare situation for making wardrobe decisions. 

The only solution is to layer, and what better choice than the humble cardigan. I love cardigans. I'm not kidding. I think I have one (or more) in every colour.

And this is only ~60% of my cardigan collection..
There are so many cute designs out there, which makes it virtually impossible for me to stop hoarding buying more and more. So let's go shopping!
