Mix and match the colors and don't be afraid to try new looks with your cardigan and different belts.
Add Jazz to Your Boring Basic Cardigans
If you wonder how to jazz up those basic cardigans in your wardrobe, then look no further. Embellished cardigans are in and you can make one for yourself at a much lesser cost than buying a brand new cardigan. Visit your nearby crafts store and invest in some expensive pretty fabric with ruffled edges or big chunky flower cutouts. Sew these on your basic cardigan and make them look expensive and chic.
You can also add lace studded with colored stones etc. Just be your imaginative best. But just remember not to overdo the embellishment otherwise you'll look tacky rather than stylish.
Play It Up with Scarves
To make the same cardigan look different every time you wear it, top it with different scarves for a brand new look each time. Add different colorful scarves made of different materials to make the same cardigan look different. You can also learn to tie your scarves differently to make your scarf and cardigan look new each time.
Color Them Up
Make sure that your wardrobe has bright colored cardigans along with the basic neutral ones. Wear a bright colored cardigan with a neutral colored outfit to create a stunning effect. Stock your wardrobe with bright red, purple, magenta colors for the winters to do away with the winter blues.
Go for a Retro Look
Spice up your cardigans by combining them with the sweet 60s style school dresses. Look for the 60s dresses at your local vintage shops and pair them with your basic cardigans to look sweet and cute.
Pin them Down

Show your Summer Tank Tops
You want to wear your cool summer tank tops in winter too? Well, not a problem at all. Wear your tank tops under your cardigans. Also you can top the outfit with a scarf around your neck.

Add plenty of color to liven up the winters, rather than only the basic ones in black and white. So don't ditch that cardigan just yet. With a little creative fashionista thinking, the boring old cardi can be a girl's best winter wardrobe essential.
