J.Crew military cardi, $89.99

Ah, see, this piece is so perfect for that in-between winter and spring weather. It’s still too cool to go without a jacket, but too warm to slap on a thick wool coat or a down item

I love, love, love the military details, which make it perfect as a topper over jeans or a dress.

It adds structure by virtue of its lines, but remains soft and cozy because, after all, it is a cardigan. It also satisfies any need to check out the military trend that continues into spring without spending an arm and a leg on a designer brand. And yet, it’s a classic enough piece — it should work in your wardrobe for seasons to come.

Marked down from the original $128, this Chevalier cardi is still available in black and in several sizes online at jcrew.com
