I've pretty much been living in this sweater lately, because it's so warm and comforting, and right now my life really needs some warm and comforting. Half the outfits I wear this sweater with don't include it in the original plan, but it's so darn cold when it's 7 am and it's raining and dark and you have to walk to the bus stop, and I just never end up taking it off. This outfit was meant to include the sweater, and that part worked out splendidly, but the leggings didn't live up to expectations. I think it would have worked better with a pair of thin nylons or some fishnets, the leggings made it feel a bit too covered.
Do you have pieces of clothing that consistently work their way into your outfits despite not being part of the plan?
Love,
Rosie
PS: I'm blaming my absence on caffeine withdrawl. The past week has been plagued with a queasy stomach and an inability to do anything other than watch old episodes of Firefly. I should be back to my usual fully caffeinated but still fairly unreliable self soon.
i love the skirt! and nothing can beat a cosy jumper in the cold winter months :)

Too bad you're not feeling well, but at least you can watch Firefly! Oh, the awesomeness that is Joss Whedon.
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon!
Cheers!

cute skirt
ReplyDeleteI've been sick too, just figured out that I have a sinus infection the other day. Fun stuff! haha hope we both feel better
i think this is one of my favourite outfits - it's exactly that, warm & comforting. hope you're feeling better xx
ReplyDeletefor me it's my 15 year old denim jacket. It still looks "right" over so many outfits that even though I really want a new one, I keep thinking "why?"
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is adorable just the way it is. Keep warm so you don't get sick again!
that skirt is so pretty and i love your retro hairstyle!

ReplyDeleteLove this cosy combo! The pattern on that dress is great. I still dont have a pretty mac yet - still waiting on the insurance company to see if I'm covered! :) x
ReplyDeleteArgh! I tried to cut down on coffee, it did not work very well! I do the same thing with my clothes, I will wear the same darn sweater over and over and over! XX!
ReplyDeleterosie - you look gorgeous! i always find a way to work my favorite black cardigan and/or gold skinny belt into the mix!
ReplyDeleteps: thank you so much for your kind words and condolences <3

Oh no, you have the squeezy stomach too? I hope you get better soon! The sweater looks great on you and perfectly cosy, I think I wouldn't want to take it off either. (I've got one I wear EVERY DAY, too, sometimes it needs a wash and then it's back on again.)
ReplyDeletethe sweater looks so cozy on you! very nice outfit :)
ReplyDeleteThat sweater looks super comfortable, and it is cute with that skirt.
ReplyDeleteby the way, totally get dr martens. they last forever, and SO comfy and they come in all different colours and styles and stuff like that! plus, i got mine for £60 in the sale :') right!? right!?

I like the patterned skirt with your sweater. I'm not a skirt person, so I don't typically think of pairing a sweater with a skirt. I usually have a black sweater or tee that keeps resurfacing regularly because it's easy to pull together and mix with so much stuff. But I don't want to get in a "black outfit" rut, so I try to consciously change it up.
ReplyDeleteIf it's cold out I always end up with a hat of some sort. I should just start including them, why fight them? :D
ReplyDeleteI have two cardigans that have been in almost constant rotation lately! People are probably getting sick of seeing me in them. I think I'm resisting getting the rest of the sweaters out because I don't want to face how cold it's suddenly gotten. Sometimes you just need some comfort!
ReplyDeletevery pretty look. probably the most feminine i've seen u till now. the sweater is perfect belted over the skirt.

I think it looks perfect with the tights, but then again, I'm an old gal! Not one for revealing skin these days ;o)
