Mizumi Tan/Blue Cardigan

I reach for this tan-and-blue Mizumi cardigan whenever the weather turns cold. The heavyweight knit and shawl collar make it feel instantly cozy, and the button front is easy to throw on over whatever I’m wearing. The stripes look sharp and surprisingly versatile—I’ve worn it to the office when it’s chilly and it went with almost everything. I’ve also gotten plenty of compliments, and a couple people even asked to borrow it. Fit felt true to size with a relaxed, comfortable drape, great for layering. It has almost jacket-level warmth, so it’s perfect for chilly mornings or being outside on a cold day. The quality feels solid and substantial, and the overall look hits that classic, preppy sweet spot without trying too hard. If anything, just know it’s a warm piece—if you run hot, you might not need it indoors for long. And as with most relaxed knits, the fit can vary a bit in the body; a few might find it a touch boxy or the color combo not their usual. But if you want a cozy, easy-to-wear cardigan that looks good with lots of outfits, this one absolutely delivers.
