The Striped Cardigan

Stripes and dots almost always tickle me pink. It does not matter what size they are or if the designer really gave much thought to them. But whem they do, it thrills me even more. Carmakoma’s striped cardigan is one of those times. Black and white stripes are classic but what I love about this cardigan is the ever so slight variation in the size of the stripes from top to bottom. You do not really notice it on first glance.
Plus size black and white cardigan from Carmakoma.
The ruching detail on the bicep is an interesting touch and the black panel down the back helps to lessen that googly sensation that one can get sometimes when looking at stripes. Overall, it is just an interesting addition to horizontal stripes. I am disappointed however that it is not a cardi-set. It would be super functional with a matching sleeveless tank.

    Channeling Velma

    I’m still obviously in Halloween mode (and probably will be from now until Oct 31st) because when I was checking out Addition-Elle’s new arrivals I fell in love with this cowl neckline sweater with belt ($59.99) and it has me thinking of an updated Velma from the Scooby pack with this black and grey striped…
