Hey everyone! Welcome back to the blog! I’ve been looking forward to this blog post because today I’m featuring this brand new cropped cardigan set from Lani the Label. This cute thing kept selling out SO fast. I had to sign up for the waiting list and virtually-sprint to checkout as soon as I received the notification. By the time you read this, I can’t even guarantee it will be in stock, but it’s worth waiting for. I haven’t had any luck finding others like it online and although it’s above my usual price point for a cardigan, I went ahead and splurged. It’s less an $100 so hey, that’s something! The color, material, and style was too amazing for me not to get it. Today, I’m going to show you how I styled this cropped cardigan set THREE ways for the summer!

1. Wide-Legged Pants

A classic choice, in my opinion. Since these wide-legged pants cover so much of my 5-foot-2 self, there’s freedom to rock the cropped tank top sans cardigan. The cropped cardigan set is sweater material and thick but not too thick. I know what you’re thinking. A sweater? In summer? IN THE SOUTH?!?! Don’t worry your pretty little head! The tank is so cute, comfortable, and breezy on its own! The straps are a little bit long so I had to pin them. Not ideal, but works in a pinch. Anywho, my white wide-legged pants are old but here’s a similar pair for less than $50! I loveeeeee baby blue and white together! My slides are Target, but I found a similar pair here!

2. Jean Shorts + Platforms

This look is easy-peasy! Shimmy into a pair of light-wash jean shorts and some comfortable sandals or platforms and you’re ready for anything the day throws at you. These are “mom” shorts from Target and THEY ARE THE BESSSST! I’m wearing a size 3! They are perfect around the waist and hang loose around the thigh. My platforms are from DSW and linked here! I’ve had them for two summers and love how they give me a little bit of height.

3. Colorful High-Waisties

Okay, I love these colors together! For a bold and vibrant look, I paired the cardigan set with some bright high-waisted shorts. These ones are Amuse Society from E. Leigh’s Boutique here in Little Rock. Use my discount code ELIZABETH10 for 10% off online! Here is the link to the shorts. I love the fit and material. I was wayyyyyy out of my comfort zone with this look but I’m tired of shying away from bright colors so I decided to rock it.

I hope you like these three looks and I hope to see this cropped cardigan set restocked very, very soon! If you buy it, snap a pic and tag me on Instagram (@miss.rock.city)!
