Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Anna Sui’s Military Wool-Blend Cardigan
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.
We're kind of loving that what looks like a crazy pattern is actually a fairly typical wool sweater pattern, but with expert detailing and tailoring from Anna Sui. Absolutely gorgeous. We'd wear it with all black and white, and choose one accessory to pop — red shoes, perhaps, or an emerald green necklace. It's $430 at Net-a-Porter.com. Anna Sui Military wool-blend cardigan

To me this is perfect work wear. Conservative, clearly a jacket, but deeply subversive at the same time.
I like this look but feel that I could get similar cardigans at a better price (or wait for net-a-porter sale). Personally, I do not think cardigans are investment pieces but if it’s a jacket, it would be a different story.
