Cardigan Country

A few days ago, I spotted someone in the MRT wearing a cardigan. Nothing out of the blue, you say. And I agree. So why this post?
Before the sighting, I was recently at a recent SIFF screening at Republic Poly, and the air-con was mighty cold. I ended up freezing and fell sick after that, coming down with running nose and sore throat.
When I saw the cardigan, I was thinking that it may have prevented the above freezing episode. Prior to this, I had been on the lookout for a sports jacket to add to my wardrobe, but without success.
A cardigan could be better on two counts. First, it takes up less space in a bag (my messenger bag has little space left after my default load of water bottle, umbrella, and DSLR + lenses). Second, it's more "different" as compared to a sports jacket.
I was hoping that In Her Eyes blogged about it, and true enough, there is such a post. Of the photos shown, I like the blue & yellow striped cardigan.

Whiter than white?

I've recently noticed a trend of men wearing white loafers with casual clothes (i.e. paired with bermudas or jeans).

This is a great look. Not sure if I mentioned this before, but a mixed of casual and formal (or in this case, semi-formal) sometimes can work quite well.
