SFF-DownEast Basics Review and Giveaway!!

I have heard a lot of good reports about DownEast Basics and their beautiful clothing, so I was thrilled when given the opportunity to work with them during my Spring Fashion Fling. I was able to choose an item for review, and after browsing the website I decided on the Infatuation Cardigan, in a lovely Orchid color. I waited anxiously for my cardigan...I wanted to see if it was really as pretty as the picture looked. When I received the package, I was so excited. The cardigan was even prettier in person! The color is called Orchid Hush, and is absolutely stunning. 

I have a few purple floral skirts that this matches perfectly, and it makes for a wonderful Church or dressy outfit. Or, I can pair it with a denim skirt for a casual yet classy look! I appreciated that the cardigan, while very well-made, is a very lightweight material. So, even right now while we're enjoying the warmer weather in Florida, I can wear it and not get too hot. The ruffles down the front give it a dainty, feminine look that I love.
