Chunky Knit Love

When I first started writing this blog post back in January, I had intended to post it right away. Instead of scheduling the post or hitting publish, though, I decided to take a few weeks away from the blog. A few weeks turned into a month, and then a month became a month and a half. Ooops! Between my work, the kiddos, and my workout routine (more on this in a later post), I have been EXHAUSTED at the end of each day. I often fall asleep in my bed or on the couch with my iPad on my face. Yes, there are photos. No, I will not be sharing them.

Over the last few months, I have been LIVING in chunky, cozy sweaters and cardigans. You will definitely be seeing a few more on the blog before the winter is over. They are so comfortable and warm, and they are incredibly versatile! They pair with just about any bottom. Jeans, sweatpants, leggings, biker shorts, sweat shorts (yes, these exist), joggers. You name it, I have worn it. Seriously!

I first saw this Alex Mill cardigan on Samantha from Could I Have That? and immediately added it to my cart. I had never been influenced to purchase something so quickly! Especially from a brand that I had never heard of before. It just looked so cozy on the website. I couldn’t wait to take it for a spin!

This cardigan has quickly become one of my favorite articles of clothing. I wear it all the time! E calls it my “old man” sweater. It is perfect for every day wear with jeans and sneakers (as styled below) or lounging on the couch with a good book and some hot chocolate. I have worn the cardigan both ways, and it is a WINNER. Thankfully, it is still light enough to wear ALL SPRING LONG. And that is exactly what I plan on doing with it!

If you are in the market for a chunky cardigan, you should definitely check this one out! You won’t regret it!

PS. Now I am totally coveting these Alex Mill shorts and cardigan. To purchase or not to purchase? That is the question!
