The Ralph Lauren Polo Varsity V-Neck Cotton Cardigan = If Summer Never Comes.



Available Online Here: Ralphlauren.Com


CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: The truth is that, as the month of June draws to a close, the last thing that I should be shopping for is a knit cardigan. However, if Y.O.U. live on the East Coast of the US of A, and particularly if Y.O.U. call New York City home, Y.O.U. know that it's been all rain and no sign of Summer for far too long - so, forgive me if my material mind has temporarily wandered elsewhere.

As a man, Summer doesn't offer me much to sport other than fresh kicks and overpriced t-shirts that I-will-wear-for-the-next-few-weeks-and-then-unceremoniously-stuff-into-storage-bins-or-give-to-the-Salvation-Army come September, making it all the more easier for me to fall for this Ralph Lauren Polo Varsity V-Neck Cotton Cardigan.

By no stretch of the imagination does the beautifully detailed Varsity letter "P" that adorns this piece qualify as any member of the coveted "P-Wing" family, but, this new sweater does fit the bill as Ralph Lauren continues to flirt with it's iconic logo laden past. Are there any new bears on the horizon? Maybe a Wall Street banker bear in recognition of the captains of industry that negligently navigated us into this current recession perhaps? LOL. Stop playing.
