Trends R’ Us: Cardigans

Cardigans- Best Fall Item

If there is one item that you should not be without this fall it’s the cardigan. Not only are these babies comfortable and warm, they’re very stylish and trendy, and will match up with almost anything (depending on the color of course).

Choose a neutral colored cardigan as you will get more and better uses out of it. You can also go for different lengths. There are shorter cardigans (which are sportier) and there are longer cardigans (which are dressier).

So depending on your style, you can choose different lengths. Longer cardigans match well with jeans, sweater dresses and tights, as well as skirts.

Shorter cardigans also go well with jeans or any sporty attire. So keep yourself cozy and warm this fall and winter with the hottest item-cardigans!

Lil Wayne, who welcomed son Dwayne Michael Carter III last week in Cincinnati, would like to offer a counterpoint. “I delivered him. I held the left leg the whole time,” the rapper revealed backstage at a concert Tuesday night (via People). “It was nasty, very nasty, but it was wonderful.” Wayne, 26, says the newborn is the “best thing to ever happen to me, next to my daughter,” referring to 8-year-old Reginae (mom is ex-wife Antonia “Toya” Johnson). The identity of Dwayne III’s mother remains under wraps.

Congrats to Lil’ Wayne on his bundle of joy!

As the kids get older and they add to their brood, they want to make as few complications as possible. Don’t expect some lavish Hollywood wedding. And neither of them are religious, so it will be simple. They’ll wake up one morning and know it’s the right time. With everything that they do, the decisions they make are for the greater good of the children and the family.”
