cardigans mostly......i rarely wear pullovers.

i get too hot all year long and dont want to have to keep putting on or taking off a pullover......and it messes up my hair and makeup. a cardigan is just so much easier, especially when you like to layer.

I own lots of cardigans but only one pullover..and it is very lightweight, Cardigans are more versatile and I used to keep one on my office chair for when they kicked the a/c up to frigid.

I have several merino wool, cashmere, and nylon/plus other fabrics pullover, and I have several button-up and open cardigans. I prefer regular length or crop to long sweaters.


@tototwo

Yeah what she said! LOL if you're referring to cardigans v pullovers as outerwear, or third piece, I don't do either. I prefer the structure of a jacket or blazer.

I own plenty of pullovers and traditional cardigans that I wear buttoned up as pullovers and not as third pieces

I do have one open front but it's a crop length cocoon. Not exactly winter wear! LOL

I prefer pullovers, but l also wear zip-up sweaters/sweatshirts/hoodies. I don't own any cardigans.

I wear more cardigans in the summer.  I like to wear sleeveless tops and dresses but it's always too cold in restaurants, theaters, etc. so I always carry a cardigan.  In the fall and winter I like turtlenecks.

Pullover, but only with a V-neck. Years ago I only wore turtleneck sweaters - now I can't stand anything around my neck (the heat factor!).

Definitely cardigans.

Over a cami, tank or a simple little T.

 

Anywhere from mid hip length to mid calf length. They probably get worn the most. I do have a few too many, longer mid calf ones though, which I wear in the fall and winter.

 

Hahaha...  Sounds like I am the Cardi Queen! ❤️ Yep!

I wear both, but mostly cartigans unless the pullover is very thin. 

 

I did pick up a few lightweight pullovers last spring from Talbots and wanted to wear them every day!!!

I never was a cardigan person. I feel more pulled together in a pullover.

I don't even own a cardigan. My sweaters are all pullovers.

 

To me, cardigans are for layering, and I don't like layers when I'm indoors. For outerwear, I like jackets and coats.
