First official winter piece


I'm holding the purse strings close, but I adore this sweater. Shipping was free, and the coupon was expiring, so I ordered it.

I love the thick-knit, smooshy wool. The quirky, outsize details. The childlike frills and furbelows.

I want to feel like I'm wrapped in a big and warm blanket all winter.

I am trying my darnedest to be more focused and relevant in my purchases. So while I am drawn to and habitually buy dresses and flats and things like that, I hardly ever wear those things. So instead, I'm really trying to fill in the gaps in my wardrobe. That means warm sweaters, cotton tees, and other layer-able tops.
