It’s that time of year when one day it’s practically balmy and the next day you wonder if you’ll get a blizzard. For some parts of the U.S. it may be warm enough for a light coat (or no coat) while others are still bundled up head to toe. That’s cardigan weather, and I’ve gathered a bunch of great women’s cardigans for transitional weather that will look great now into early summer, and again when the leaves start to fall and the weather again cools.

A mix of misses and plus options in bright colors and patterns to add whimsy and sunshine to your wintry wardrobe basics.
Stripes are a classic and an easy way to jazz up solid blouses, tees, and other tops. These cardigans are stripes in cheery colors sure to brighten rainy spring days.

Cardigans are a great way to tell a story and show your personality. This year, you will find plenty of printed, intarsia, and creatively patterned cardigans to provide interest to your existing wardrobe.

Navy is a fantastic spring color. It’s a neutral, but not as harsh or wintry as black. Looking fantastic with gray, tan, camel, white, ivory, and olive, it is extremely versatile with closet staples. And navy is great at making jewel tones look springy and other colors pop.
