CLOSET STAPLE: The Classic Cardigan

It's official.The rainy season is in full force now here in the Philippines. Quite frankly, I hate it. I do not like the rain at all. The humidity makes it even worse, because it makes my hair all frizzy and puffy (I don't consider myself a vain person, but I do like my hair pretty and manageable, and whenever I have a bad hair day my entire mood gets affected and I become extremely moody lol). 

So what do I wear on a rainy day? Well, I'm afraid to say that comfort wins over style this time around. Like I said, the gloomy weather dampened my spirits when the rain dampened my hair, so I didn't have the motivation to dress up nicely.

Since I've been talking about closet staples lately, I thought it would be nice to continue and make it an official "series" here on my blog. Expect more posts in the future regarding classic pieces that I believe everyone should have in their closets.

A cardigan is definitely a versatile piece of clothing, and that's one of the reasons why it's become my go-to outerwear for any occasion. I typically wear them in bright colors like this yellow one because it can instantly transform a boring outfit into something more lively, but if you want, you can also go for more subdued versions like the classic black or white. You can wear it over a dress for a casual date, or over your uniforms in school just to change up your look a bit, or you can also wear a cardigan over a basic top for a regular day out.
