I cant find a cardigan to go with my dress :-(

katiechops, 25 April, 2013 at 20:41 Posted on Planning 0 18

Hello. Ive been looking for ages now. I like the idea of having a cardigan a bit like the one in the picture below (shes actually wearing my dress too, the pic inspired me!). Ive been looking for a mint green, or a blush pink but i cant find any that look right, any ideas? anyone else wore a cardi with your dress?


Something like this.

    Can't think of anywhere at the moment, but shops should be getting stuff like this in now, New Look normally have some Pretty summery things in, boho style and that. Keep an eye out in places like TK Maxx too. I love charity shops too, you might find one in one of those if you're lucky. X

    Boden, Cashmere?

    Boden, with sequins down the button. Comes in a pale pink colour too?

    Man I love cardigans!

    You can't keep a beautiful dress like that covered up all day, promise. What colour is blush and what size are you? May have something pink you can have. Not to buy but if you like, a fiver donation to a good cause would be appreciated.

    Your dress is beautiful at the back, why do you want to cover it up? Is it for evening when it's cold?

    I've had a look and found a few cardigans you might like. Have you thought of a lace cardigan too? That could look really pretty.

    One of my recent brides got a beautiful blush coloured cardigan from Cos. Don't know where you are but it's in Central London, they do post though they specialise in clean shapes and block colours.

    Hi S108HAN Blush is a bit of a vintage type pink/peach colour. thats very kind id love to see what you may have, im a size 14-16 though.
    spenerella id not heard of Boden, they are worth thinking about, not sure of the sequins but they are nice and a great price too
    Butterfly2014 that white stuff one is beautiful!! I wonder if its lighter in real life.
    I do love the back of the dress but was thinking even in June it can get chilly at night and id like to sit outside a bit.
    You guys are great! Ill check these out. :-)

    Hi, Its by Claire Pettibone and is called Queen Annes lace. Ive got my fitting next month and im sooooo excited to get to try it on in my size! Thats why im after a cardi now, so i can try it on at my fitting.

    Thanks AC!!- thats such a good website, i cant believe how great the prices are, and its got a 3 month return policy! I think I may order a cashmere one from there in the light pink :-)

    Katie, I have the cashmere in light pink (with velvet ribbon trim) and it is a really pretty cardy. And very useful as it goes with everything - so probably with your gorgeous dress too!
