  2. All the cardigans that you show are so short I personally like to cover my big huge thighs and butt lol wearing them shorter I am not particularly keen on as I don’t like to show my body off. I want something that fits nicely and fully covers so I’ll stick with the big bulky cardigans. Thank you though God bless you Have a beautiful day!

  3. Long cardigans can look good with dresses and skirts if you belt them and if they have buttons, leave half of the buttons on the bottom half unbuttoned

  4. Thank you for sharing what kind of cardigans goes well with dresses!! This is such a helpful video. Thanks!

  5. I have a few tie cardigans from Aritzia. (Babaton Ty Cardigan) They are a thin material and quite long, almost a duster. My trouble is what to layer underneath of them with leggings and boots. I am looking for a longer fitted tank top that covers the crotch area. The tank almost needs to be a cotton blend to keep the more elevated dressy look. It’s been a challenge to find the right undergarment.
