I need a couple of new cardigans. Plain, simple, Michelle Obama-ish cardigans with 3/4 sleeves in solid colors to wear with various dresses and tops. Not a shrug (not flattering on me), not a tunic or a duster or anything trendy. Not the open weave - it needs to look summery but be heavy enough to fend off the arctic chill in the office.
Any suggestions? I've tried Talbots, Dress Barn, JC Penney and Target with no luck.
Ideas?

Kohls usually has a table of them folded, lots of colors and resonably priced. At least mine does.

I just saw some at Kohl's by apt 9. I don't remember if they button up or not but I'm sure Kohl's may have some.

I've gotten several from Target-they aren't 3/4 length sleeves, but the material is thin enough that it seems to work well for me.
I have a whole wardrobe of cardigans-JJill, Lands End and a few other places are where I get most of mine. I prefer the very basic, classic cardigan style that can be dressed up and down.

The Loft normally has tons of colors and sleeve lengths. You have to be careful with shrinking though

Talbots would be my first choice....but Loft/Ann Taylor would be a close second.

Have you tried macy's or Kohl's? www.jjill.com has a bunch www.appleseeds.comI googled 3/4 sleeve cardigan. I found lots of websites selling them. I haven't worn a cardigan for 20 years. Before we moved to Medford I had a couple and when I wore them out I didn't buy any more because I didn't need them in Medford. They were too hot to wear. I found some on jjill and appleseed that I like. when I start bringing in money I am going to buy a couple.

I found some at Maurice's they are nice and reasonably priced too. I think they have a coupon code for 30% off right now too.

I got a black one at TJ Maxx. They also had white also. I too, have to have 3/4 length. (I have T Rex arms ) It is fine gauge and very nice. $20.

I usually get mine at Gap Outlet, Old Navy (don't have any currently), Loft or Target. Target does have some now, but they aren't 3/4 sleeves. I just pulled the sleeves up though.

I got a really cute one at Kohl's. They had green, pink, white and black. Very thin. I'll see if I can find a link. ETA: Guess my store was limited on colors because there are several colors online: cardigans

If you're not looking for great quality, WalMart has simple, V-neck cardigans in maybe 20 colors for $8 each. They are thin, but to me, it's a weight that's perfect with a dress or blouse for the office.

I would have suggested Talbots. Me, too. I have a ton of them. They wear for years, so worth the $.

I love the cardigans at Macy's but they aren't 3/4 length sleeves but I just pull them up if I need to. They aren't the typical knit cardigans, they are more like a silky material. Made by Sport & Co. Light weight enough to keep me from glowing (menopausal!) but heavy enough to keep that office artic blast air conditioner off me.

I don't think it has been mentioned yet, but Eddie Bauer has nice cardigans (the various Christine sweaters). And they are in with shop runner now too if you happen to have a membership (or an Amex- I get mine as a free perk of my credit card).
