FLOWER POWER

“This has got a classic line to it. It’s a very elegant cardigan, and the satin panels in the front with the digital photo print? Just gorgeous! This is very, very chic. With a pair of skinny black jeans, you can go anywhere with this one.”
A BIT OF PUNK NEVER HURT
ONETEASPOON FROM OUT ON A LIMB, 1755 AVENUE RD., $190
“This is a very funky, fun sweater. Great for the summer. When you think of a beaded sweater, you think of something quite fancy, but it has a great, sporty feel to it. And, I always love a zipper on a sweater.”
THE NATURAL CHOICE
CAMELLIA FROM WANT BOUTIQUE, 9301 BATHURST ST., $141
“I really love the beauty of this sweater. The print is great. It has a certain romance about it, too. It has got great attention to detail. It’s a very feminine sweater, and it would look great over a summer dress, especially during cooler nights.”
MINIMAL CHIC
HALSTON HERITAGE FROM THE BAY, 3401 DUFFERIN ST., $350
“This just has a great sense of elegance to it, yet it’s the kind of sweater you can dress up or down. It’s always great to have a three-quarter-sleeved, boxy-style sweater in your wardrobe.”
LITTLE BLUE RIDING HOOD
LINE KNITWEAR FROM OVER THE RAINBOW, 101 YORKVILLE AVE., $199
“I just love this Navajo-inspired sweater from Line. It has got great little bell sleeves, a wonderful hood and it has got lovely detailing. It would look fantastic with denim, particularly white jeans.”
