we love this oversized, asymmetrical cardigan from mint. the heathered grey-taupe color is perfect for fall and goes with everything. while it may look a little sloppy and confusing on the hanger, we've styled it three different ways--for someone in her 20s, 30s or 40s--to show you that fashion can transcend decades if outfitted appropriately.
20s: grunge is fun! considering a girl of 25 was in 9th grade at the turn of the millennium, she can totally pull of the 90s grunge without looking dated or like she's trying too hard to fit in with the current trends. go full-throttle with the look by keeping the cardigan loose over a plaid button-down and boyfriend jeans. we hear pearl jam is touring...go check out the show!
30s: lock it up! with a new decade comes new responsibilities. this is the time in your life when talk with girlfriends turns from celebrities to strollers. while you probably attended a pearl jam concert in 1994, the grunge look should remain a fond memory for you. instead, create a more tailored look by pairing the oversized cardigan with a skinny belt over leggings. throw in a plaid scarf as an homage to your college days and keep your style sophisticated enough for a casual luncheon yet comfortable enough for carpool.
40s: dress to impress! you were probably thinking more about maternity clothes than wearing tights under cutoff jean shorts the first time grunge hit the fashion scene, so be happy you missed that train. this time around, don't ban an item from your wardrobe simply because it appears "young" at first sight. when worn over a simple shirtdress (belted to flatter your waist) and accessorized properly, this cardigan becomes a surprising go-to in your closet. roll the sleeves to minimize the sloppy effect of oversized clothing, and pop your collar a la lauren hutton in the preppy 80s.
