How to Style Cardigans for Autumn, According to 6 It Girls

Right now, fashion people are separated into two camps: those who dread putting away all their favourite summer clothes and those who revel in the arrival of sweater weather. I, for one, am firmly in the latter category. I hate being a sweaty mess all summer, so I always look forward to fall's crisper weather. Oh, and it doesn't hurt that I have my birthday, Halloween, and Thanksgiving to look forward to.

I have an extensive cardigan collection, but sometimes, I'm tempted to throw them on with my basic white tees and jeans. Boring! Below, I rounded up six chic ways It girls are styling cardigans right now. I hope you come away inspired and ready to take on autumn. 

1. With a Matching Skirt

No matter the season, we're always up for an easy co-ord. 

SHOP THE LOOK:

This will also look great with high-waist jeans. 

Add knee-high boots to complete the look. 

The texture adds to the expensive feel of this one.

2. With a Cargo Maxi Skirt

For a fashion forward take, tap into the maxi silhouette trend. 

SHOP THE LOOK:

A simple black cardi is incredibly versatile. 

Make use of your reliable strappy top from summer. 

A pair you'll rely on for years to come. 

3. With Slouchy Trousers

Simplicity is key when styling a classic cardigan, and relaxed trousers are a no-brainer. 

SHOP THE LOOK:

A very affordable choice. 

Ganni's graphic tees are a favourite amongst fashion people.

So many of our editors rate Reformation's Mason pants. 

4. With White Jeans

Blue jeans are expected, but white denim is a striking alternative. 

SHOP THE LOOK:

We hear great things about Agolde jeans. 

Sunglasses are a chic finishing touch, no matter the season. 

These come in a range of sizes so you can find the perfect hoops for you.

5. With a Slip Skirt

For a French take, make like Sylvie and add a chic brown slip skirt. 

SHOP THE LOOK:

For high-quality yet affordable knitwear, we often look to M&S. 

The kitten heel will be comfortable all day long. 

6. With Baggy Jeans
