Beautiful Basics & Fashionable Fundamentals: 4

You had to know there was going to be a sweater or two somewhere in this list, right? As a matter of fact, there are two.

You see, even in the spring and summer, there are times when a lightweight sweater can really pull your look together. And, naturally, in the fall and winter months, there are times when a sweater is absolutely necessary in order to battle the temperatures.

You can never go wrong with a crewneck sweater, for instance. You might like a thinly knitted one, in cotton or in wool. That way you can layer it and get the most of both comfort and versatility.

Of course, a cardigan sweater is the end all, be all of must have sweaters. Neutral shades are the best — and you can never go wrong with a black cardigan.

You should get a longer one, because it will be sure to flatter your figure.
