Cardigans are one of the cosiest pieces of clothing to ever exist, while also making the person look fashionable if worn accordingly. For a long time now.

Today the pants that are in fashion literally squeeze our legs and make them hurt. It would be a heaven if we can wear pants that are extremely comfortable and can still be called fashionable. 90’s fashion permits one to be fashionable yet be comfortable in their pants because of the trendy cargo pants, wide-legged pants and mom jeans.
