Cardi. Party.

A cardigan can add a lot to an ensemble without even having to do much. By just buttoning the cardigan, it actually puts more emphasis on the button down underneath. Rolled sleeves also give it a casual feel while still being classy.

Cardigans are very versatile. There's many ways you can mix them with different looks.
The color blood oxford is a great color to utilize for Fall. I have it in skinny jeans, and the pants which you see here. It really pops in a distinct way, contrasting the lighter shirt and cardigan.

Love this shirt by H&M. It's so light and has buttons so the sleeve can stay in place when rolled up.
Despite this having a classy feel, I still found a way to have that edge to it with the boots and studded belt. I think it's important to note that when you do a look, you don't always have to go full out. You can use elements from your main style to something else. The results of which should be interesting.

Don't be fooled all the time when things seem to contrast. You should play up the differences to stand apart.
For instance, someone on my Lookbook left me a comment saying, "I love how classic this is with a pinch of studded edge. i don't think i've ever put "studs" and "so classy!" in the same sentence but here it works magically :)" and that's the point of "your look" it isn't to stifle you, but to push your individuality to the next level.
