The Vintage St John Cardigan You Need in Your Wardrobe
Much like any vintage lover, I’ve been wanting a vintage Chanel cardigan or jacket forever, but I’m not ready to drop $1.5k on one. Yes, I buy a lot of designer stuff and I have expensive taste, but there are some things that I just can’t justify. Enter the classic vintage St John cardigan which will solve the dilemma (if not affording Chanel is a dilemma).
I picked up my vintage St John cardigan for under $15 on eBay a few months ago and it’s one of my favorite finds ever. It’s one of those classic pieces I’ll wear well into my 100s, yes I plan to live to at least 100 years old, and will still be in style. These cardigans can tend to look a little too “buttoned up, pearl necklace” for my taste, but styled with the right pieces, it’s super modern and fashion forward. I love the contrast trim and the extra gaudy buttons which make the sweaters extra special.
My formula is to style with vintage Levi’s or leather pants and a graphic tee. It makes for a great cardigan over dresses for a most classic look, but you know I love mixing everything up when I get dressed up.
