Throughout the entire year, I live in cardigans. Whether it’s
because of wintry weather or over-enthusiastic summer air
conditioning, I always have a sweater with me. Recently,
I’ve noticed a trend in the sweaters I grab every day; they’re
tailored, comfy, and have a little bit of a twist that makes
them uniquely me. I designed Marlena Cardigan with
those thoughts in mind. A long, lean boyfriend cardigan
shape with a bit of ease and sleek tailoring details join with
a feminine and fresh cable pattern to create a sweater that’s
perfect for tossing on with any outfit. And what comfy wear-every-
day cardigan would be complete without pockets?
