Sweater

Racing Stripes

by Celina[zilla_likes]

Another balanced spring look today pairing a cozy sweater with a light and bright midi skirt. It’s colorful and fun but keeps that brisk wind at bay. Skirt: TJ Maxx, Sweater: Marshalls, Flats: gifted Tieks, Belt: Goodwill    

Starlit and Studded

For a cozy but still festive holiday look I styled this studded grey sweater with a tulle skirt and matching belt. You could swap the flats with heels for a more upscale ensemble.  Skirt: Le Club Boutique, Portsmouth, NH, Belt: Goodwill, Sweater: Savers, Shoes: Nine West via Macy’s

While in Iceland I picked up one of their famous handmade, Icelandic wool sweaters. My friend Jess recommended I check the Salvation Army, and I found this beauty for only $40. Most new sweaters retail for $200 or more. The climatic need for warm clothing is obvious, but I also learned that sheep are abundant…Read More

Rain, Rain Go Away

by Celina[zilla_likes]

It’s been a dreary start of spring here in Boston, heavy on the rain and light on the sunshine. I’ve been making the sartorial best of it by mixing bright patterns with contrasting textures. These leather pants play on the silk jacket and my knit sweater creating subtle visual interest. This outfit is perfect for…Read More
