Thursday Thrift Score: Cobalt Blue, Part II

As I'm sure you've guessed by now, I loves me some tank tops and sleeveless shirts. They're perfect for summer here in Texas (the majority of the year) and can easily be layered with a jacket or cardigan in the cooler months (or maybe that's just the cooler month, singular). So, as you can probably imagine, I have amassed a sizable cardigan collection. Or at least I had when I was overweight, and now I'm working on building it back up. And that's where this beauty comes into play!

In my wardrobe, as well as in my home decor, I often rely heavily on neutrals and then incorporate a strong pop of color. I feel like this technique stretches my closet further, makes for more outfit combinations, but maybe I'm just making that up. Either way, I'm loving the black, white, and blue combo recently.

Sure, it's 100% acrylic, but, with circulation like mine, who needs breathability? And sure, the plastic fake-pearl coating is flaking off a couple of the buttons, but if I have to replace them after a few washes, I'd still count this $2 sweater in the win column.

  1. Cute and versatile. I can see this with a skirt or dress, too.

  2. Absolutely! I've already worn it once with this dress too, speaking of the black, white, and blue combo.
