APC Merino Wool Belted Cardigan

We like to think of cardigans as being a seasonless addition to your travel wardrobe. Cool airplanes, indoor airconditioning  and the chills that come with being overtired, calls for a cozy coverup (and a scarf too). We’ve found 6 cardigans perfect for layering over a cotton tee with your favourite pair of jeans or leggings. Throw on a pair of shades and flats and you’ve got yourself the perfect travel outfit. Plus these cute cardigans are easily wearable on a crisp fall day.

1.  APC Merino Wool Belted Cardigan, $340, net-a-porter.com
This midnight-blue three-quarter length sleeves cardigan is a nice light option, yet thanks to the fabric will keep you warm without the bulk.

2. J.Crew Abbraccio Cardigan, $298, jcrew.com
Dropped shoulders, an oversized shawl collar, long sleeves and a hip length make this the ultra-comfy travel sweater. We love the oliver shimmer shade too.

3. Splendid Draped Jersey Cardigan, $63, net-a-porter.com
Jersey is a fantastic fabric to travel with thanks to its anti-wrinkling properties and being so lightweight. This is definitely a perfect carry-on, since you can easily stash it away.

4. Elizabeth and James Myla Deep V Cardigan, $265, shopbop.com
We love how comfy cool this black knit is. Hidden zip and patch pockets in the front, with a zipper closure in front. It’s definitely a piece you can wear right from the plane to hit the shops in and we think it’s best paired with a skinny pant.

5. Tory Burch Simone Wool Cardigan, $225, net-a-porter.com
A staple in both travel and everyday life is the Simone cardigan — a v-neck wool sweater with Tory’s signature logo buttons. Perfect if you want something simple and classic. The cardigan comes in five lovely shades including navy, red and purple, but we found this vibrant turquoise version on net-a-porter.com.

6. Banana Republic Heritage Gilded Trim Cardigan, $89.50, bananarepublic.com
We’re all for a little sparkle, especially when it looks as sweet as it does on the trim of this BR cardigan. We love it in purple, but it is available in two other shades. It’s an easy piece that can also look dressy if you want it to.
