We are all guilty of wearing that grandma sweater, one too many times in public and even in the work place. As difficulty as it may be to say good bye, to your beloved item of clothing, it is time to let go!

You can replace your favorite sweater with a sassy silk or cotton blazer.  Adding a more structured piece to your ensemble with give you a more professional vibe and show off those “oh-so-sassy” curves!

Not the blazer type? Add a cropped jean, leather or light-weight cotton jacket to your ensemble. Again it will add structure and the mix of textures/fabric will only make your look sassier!

Now for the real challenge, finding cardigans that are not BORING!

The trick is steering away from those basic colors of black, grey and beige. Try to find cardigans with great patterns, such as stripes, floral prints or polka dots. If patterns are not your thing, aim to find cardigans with subtle detailing. Details could range from, unique buttons, a lace back or sleeve lengths.

So how do you stop yourself, from becoming one of those girls?!

We all know what it is like to be in love-there is no one else that you’d rather be with, right? You want to spend all of your time with them, right? But, have they been with you through thick and thin? Have they helped you through those past break-ups?

To say it is important to maintain a relationship with your gal pals while in a relationship is an understatement.

You need to be your own person. So how do you balance it? Easy. Make yourself have one night a week dedicated to just you and your friends time. NO BOYS ALLOWED. Cliché, I know. But it is effective.

On the days that you don’t see your girlfriends, shoot them a text, give them a quick call or even send them an email. It is reassuring to your friends to know that you care about more than just your man.

What do you do to balance?
