It’s easy to find a shawl collar cardigan this season but it’s a little harder to find one that that’s worth buying at a time when the weather is starting to warm up. For knitwear to be purchased at this time, it needs to be light enough to be worn as outerwear during spring while still being heavy enough to act as a solid layer during winter. These Journal Standard cardigans fit those requirements and have the added bonus of being incredibly difficult to buy outside of Japan. Get it from Style Cruise.

As anyone who’s been shopping lately will have noticed, it’s a buyer’s market right now. Shawl collars are really popular right now, so why not wait until you’ve found the perfect one before you take the plunge? While we won’t begrudge you if you want to wait a little longer, we feel these Edifice shawl cardigans are perfect. The material is just heavy enough – avoiding the annoying too hot inside/too cold outside thing you get with some knitwear, the shawl V is deep enough to show off your shirt, tie or bow-tie and, for the nitpicky out there, it has contrasting buttons, making it more interesting than 99% of shawl collar knits available right now. Get it at Style Cruise.
