Hi Jackie! I recently moved from a tropical area to a much colder climate, and am now desperately looking for cardigans to help me layer up and stay warm. Do you have favorite brands with quality cardigans (preferably under $30)? Thanks in advance, and I hope you all the Chipotle you crave! ;)

My favorite place for affordable basic cardigans is Old Navy. They’re usually under $30-40 normally, but if you can find them on sale, they’ll often be $15 or less. The quality is good (not great), but there are plenty of style, color and size options.

Here are four I like, from left to right:

1. Old Navy Cropped Cableknit Sweater, $19 (from $37)
2. Old Navy Dolman Sleeve Cardigan, $25 (from $37)
3. Old Navy Shaker Stitch Boyfriend Cardigan, $18 (from $36)
4. Old Navy Shawl Collar Cardigan, $25 (from $40) 

Other places to check:

• Thrift stores typically have tons of cardigans. Don’t forget to check the men’s racks for larger “boyfriend” styles.
• Target often carries dozens of basic cardigan styles and has regular sales as well.
• Gap or LOFT outlets are prime spots to pick up high quality cardigans at a great price.
• Discount stores like H&M and Forever21 will have plenty of affordable, trendy options.
