Not Your Classic Cardi

Knitwear has gotten a major makeover the last couple of seasons... No longer do the categories of turtleneck, cardigan, v-neck and crew apply. Now we have vests, wraps, cropped styles, crazy collars and some that could double as coats... So go ahead. Grab one of these fun alternatives and stash those twin-sets in the back of your closet...

I love the collar on this military inspired Cadette Cardigan by Rebecca Taylor. Wear it instead of a blazer for a more comfy polished look.












Exaggerated details, like the oversized Peter Pan collar and huge front pockets of this Violet Sweater Jacket, are staples of the Marc by Marc Jacobs look. And in classic lipstick red, how could you refuse?











This Extra-Long Minden Chan Cashmere Cardigan can double as a dress when worn with opaque black tights or leggings. And for more oomph, add a belt.
