Who Loves the Sun

 Turtleneck: Take Out via TJMaxx, $10 // Cardigan: Pretty Good via TJMaxx, $13 // Jeans: Guess via TJMaxx, $28 // Boots: Vintage, $16 // Necklace: Fred Flare

This sun-drenched picture was taken over the weekend. At the moment, it's dark, grey and sleeting outside. I have to admit that I'm liking the nasty weather. It's a great excuse to get cozy and festive. As for the outfit, it's pretty simple, but there are a couple of elements I really like about it. For one, my new drapey cardigan. Its voluminous shape makes my oversize cardigans from last year look entirely unappealing. Also, I'm really digging the turtleneck with the short hair (which is rather windblown in this shot).

  20. That short hair really suits you! I always end up wearing my hair up when I wear turlenecks because it just gets so annoying. And mad props for pairing the gold boots with the purple - I probably would have been drawn to black, but it totally works!
