Sweater Weather

Hello All!  Sorry about my extended absence; we were in Paris for just over a week and apparently not all of my scheduled posts actually posted because I am bad at scheduling things.  But, I'm back, and I'll write a Paris post soon (I know, I know, just what you wanted, more pictures of Paris).  And for now, here I am in a sweater.




Knowing that I was going to move to the frozen steppes of Pennsylvania, I tried to find oversized sweaters to help keep me warm this winter.  Unfortunately, when you're built like me, oversized often just ends up being "sized."  But, that's not the case with this Gap sweater.


As you can see, it's truly oversized:



And, truly cozy.  It has everything I like in a sweater; softness, warmth, and the color blue.  So far, the only downside has been that it pills fairly easily.  I'm hoping regular maintenance with a sweater shaver will help with that though.


Even if it doesn't, I'll probably continue to wear the heck out of this sweater this winter.  Of course, I won't be wearing it with boyfriend jeans and flats like I am here:

Sweater: Gap  Jeans: Lucky (similar)  Flats: Old Navy (similar)


No, here in Pittsburgh, I imagine I'll be layering it over a turtleneck or seven with jeans over leggings tucked into snow boots.  Because, I don't know if you know this or not, but Pennsylvania is cold folks.  So very cold.

Happy Tuesday, All!

Quiet Tropics

As it turns out, I am a sucker for a tropical print.  I don't have a huge amount of them, but when I fall for one, I fall hard.  I fell very hard indeed for this shirt:


Gap shirt, Lucky jeans & Cole Haan shoes

The print is just so good.  Instead of a riot of tropical colors, it's printed in shades of green and blue which makes it unlike any of the other tropical prints I have in my closet.  This is more of a quiet tropical print.

Today I paired it with a pair of "boyfriend" jeans, but I think it'll work wonderfully this summer paired with white:



Man, I love tropical prints.

What about you, Reader Friends?  What's your preferred print?

Happy Thursday, All!
