Women Are Swapping Their Boring Water For This Ice Pop Electrolyte Mix!

Boyfriend cardigans will be everywhere come fall, but if not worn right, they can make you look sloppy and unkempt. Just remember the golden rule: more volume in one place equals less volume in another.

What does that mean? Since the charm of the boyfriend is in its oversized shape, you'll want something slim-fitting on the bottom. Choose a pair of black skinny jeans to keep the look casual. Instead of a boring tank or worn out tee, try a fitted tuxedo shirt —  the detail in the front will be framed nicely by the sweater's V. Slip on a pair of feminine patterned ballet flats to add color to the outfit. And for accessories, a vintage-esque watch and cocktail ring add the perfect amount of flair without going over the top. 

Grab a chic day bag in a rich fall hue (purple is big now) and you're good to go.
