One Sweater, Four Ways
If the words "cable knit sweater" don't excite you (trust us, we weren't convinced at first either), stick with us here. Once regarded as the go-to uniform of country clubbers and grandmas everywhere, this season the seemingly stuffy staple has been reinvented completely. With hand placed chunky braided detailing, a swingy hem, and a cropped silhouette, the For Love and Lemons Billy Crop Sweater is NOT your nana's sweater, and should be styled accordingly. Here are four unexpected ways to wear this East Coast essential and make it worthy of a West Coast wardrobe.
Wear To Work
Whether you're dealing with an overbearing boss, mountains of paperwork or a claustrophobic cubicle, this ensemble is sure to make Mondays suck less. A cropped sweater feels office-appropriate when paired with high waisted trousers and heeled ankle booties. Chilly office temps never stood a chance.
Just Beachy
We'd argue that beaches are at their best come fall, when the crowds are gone and we've got the sand all to ourselves. Layered over a python-printed one piece and paired with patent black slides, a classic cable knit is just the thing we want when the sun goes down and we're cozying up to a beach bonfire.
Run Around Town
On days when your schedule is jam-packed, comfort is key. Baggy denim cutoffs, a staple knit sweater and a pair of statement ankle booties are perfect for productive days spent jetting off to coffee dates, shopping, and crossing to-dos off your list.
