Wool-Free Cardigans for Spring 2012
Light sweaters are a must for the winter-to-summer transition, also known as “spring.” While you’re shopping for your springtime wardrobe, don’t let the fashion world “pull the wool over your eyes.” This spring, don’t be fooled by cruelly produced wool, silk, and cashmere. Instead, opt for cozy cardigans made from animal-free fabrics.
What’s on my wish-list for spring? A mixture of must-have basics, bold colors, and pretty feminine pieces that are both comfy and cruelty-free. See my faves below:
First up is a wardrobe staple from H&M. The possibilities are endless with this navy V-neck, three-quarter sleeve cardi.
Our second cardigan is another basic piece, available at Banana Republic. This adorable striped cardigan steps it up a notch with a textured design that is perfect for the office or the weekend.
