Monochrome Knitwear

Monochrome-Knitwear-OOTD-005I’ve never really been a fan of cardigans, and I’m not sure what it is, but I think there’s a line of thickness in a cardigan where it crosses over from being a cardigan to a coatigan. So for my own sake, I’ll be calling this a coatigan, and if any of you have a problem with that then you can just go and call the cardigan police!

Monochrome-Knitwear-OOTD-007Monochrome-Knitwear-OOTD-001Monochrome-Knitwear-OOTD-001When it comes to knitwear, monochrome is key. My wardrobe is full of monochrome knitwear, I have a jumper in practically every shade of cream, white and grey, black not so much. Yes, is the answer to your question, there are different shades of white and cream.

What I love about this coatigan is the pattern, I think it makes a statement and is another one of those pieces that you can just chuck on to make jeans and a t-shirt look put together. This is where my monochrome knitwear theory comes in, if this pattern was in colour it just wouldn’t work, monchrome is king, fact.

And here it is, my new baby, the light of my life, my new bag. I love this bag for three reasons:

  • 1 – are you seeing what I’m seeing
  • 2 – it goes with everything
  • 3 – it forces me to not carry round everything I own.
