Cozy cardigan weather has arrived! Whether you’re in desperate need of a comfy cardi to wear at your work from home space or eager to feel warm for an outside walk, today’s post breaks down my honest review of the popular Barefoot Dreams cardigans to help narrow down some choices.

Cozy Cardigans For Fall – Barefoot Dreams + Amazon Dupes

Sharing my honest review of the Barefoot Dreams cardigan in today’s styled outfit post. Have you heard of this brand before? Until recently, I didn’t know anything about the Barefoot Dreams line. At first glance, the brand looked overpriced and boring to me. I didn’t understand the appeal! During the Nordstrom Anniversary sale, a lot of bloggers post about Barefoot Dreams fashion and home finds.

What Are Popular Barefoot Dreams® Items?

Barefoot Dreams® collection features popular blankets and clothing made from soft and luxurious fabric. The fabric chosen by Barefoot Dreams® is 100% polyester microfiber for the softest feel ever.

The Barefoot Dreams blanket sells out during the Nordstrom sale almost immediately. I truly didn’t understand the hype behind such a pricey blanket, to be completely honest. Why would someone spend over $100 bucks on a BLANKET? Upon checking into the brand I noted that their iconic the COZYCHIC® Throw Blanket is nearly $150. Oof.

Another couple of Barefoot Dreams top sellers?

CozyChic cardigans featuring their unique blend of CozyChic yarn. One cardigan that stands out as a best seller is the CozyChic® Lite Long Weekend Cardigan which comes in many neutral colors. Another option that sells for just over $100? The CozyChic Lite® Long Cardigan. These cardigans both look great paired with relaxed boyfriend jeans and a casual tee. The cardigans are meant for lounging around the house or running errands.

What Barefoot Dreams® Cardigan Do I Own?

In full transparency, I need to note that I have an ongoing partnership with QVC. Therefore, I chose to receive a Barefoot Dreams® cardigan during my September delivery to try it out for myself. Although I received this cardigan in a PR package I still want to give my full and honest review of it for potential buyers who want to know if this cardigan lives up to the hype!

The Barefoot Dreams® Cardigan I am wearing sells exclusively on QVC at the moment. The name of my cardigan is the Barefoot Dreams CozyChic Boardwalk Cardigan and I am wearing a size medium. I chose the color “Pearl” (a bright white) for the fall to pair with many potential outfit combinations.

My Honest Review of Barefoot Dreams Cardigans

I am pretty torn about my opinion of this line and the iconic Barefoot Dreams cardigans! I will jot down a pros and cons list to see how I ultimately way when it comes to this Barefoot Dreams cardigan. These are the pros and cons I came up with for this cardigan:

PROS

+ The fabric feels AMAZING. It’s like nothing I’ve ever put on before.

+ This cardigan has pockets.

+ The micro-fringe details elevate this cardigan into a trendy, stylish piece to own.

+ Since the buttery CozyChic fabric feels and looks luxurious, it will last me for years to come.

+ Keeps me feeling warm.

+ Doesn’t itch at all.

+ A great cardigan for working from home in your air-conditioned office space or living room.

+ I won’t need to spend more money on other cardigans because this is THE neutral cardigan for fall/winter 2020.

CONS

+ My top con? The price. At regular price, Barefoot Dreams items will run upward of $150-$200 for one single cardigan.

+ It’s not overtly slimming. The boxy cut of this cardigan can look bulky, but I recommend sizing down to fix this issue.

+ Curved neckline: I don’t personally love this detail, but that’s my personal preference.

Final Thoughts on Barefoot Dreams Cardigans?

Even though the price point of this cardigan feels steep, I do notice more pros than cons. The other day I wanted to shoot some styled content while wearing this cardigan out. I chose to style my summer to fall outfit with a satin cami bodysuit and ripped denim jeans for a cool and casual fall look.

Cozy Cardigans for Fall – Barefoot Dreams and Amazon Dupes

Since this soft Barefoot Dreams cardigan arrived at my home I’ve also enjoyed wearing it around the house. I even ended up sleeping in it one night because it felt warm and snug. Overall, I do recommend it, despite the high price tag. I also can picture people purchasing this cardigan as a holiday present.

Tips To Save Money

To save money on this cardigan I recommend signing up for the Barefoot Dreams e-mail list where you’ll receive a nice 15% off promo code to use! It’s also a smart idea to check out retailers like QVC and Nordstrom for discounts. I would wait to find a cardigan on sale before I went out of my way to purchase another one.
