Popcorn Sweater

It looks sunny, and quite possibly warm out…but these pictures lie, they lie! It’s below freezing. Lately it’s been hard getting outfit posts. Not that I don’t get dressed… I do… and boy do I! But with the cold, going outdoors without several layers is a bit of a challenge, I get about 10 minutes before hypothermia sets in and there is just no place indoors I like enough to share with you. So here I am, with a backlog of outfits that one day I’ll be able to share. Luckily, my husband gave me a hand to get some pictures done, because me and the remote need about 30 minutes to get set up with a decent shot, and by then, I would have lost a finger, or possibly a toe. Today, I just had to show you one of my recent finds is a hand knit popcorn sweater by Rebecca Taylor. It’s not just that I like to say popcorn sweater and not mean popcorn ON my sweater…because there are a lot of days where there is popcorn on my sweater.

I’ve just been living in chunky knits with lightweight layers underneath. It keeps the bulkiness down and still keeps warm. Here I’m wearing a gauzy cotton v-neck underneath with a bobble chain necklace and a simple pair of skinny jeans, and a surprisingly warm pair of faux-shearling wedges that in the wake of purchasing these crazy snow boots seem to be quite a reasonable for walking around snowy sidewalks without feeling like an Innuit… not that there is anything wrong with that… it’s just that I’m not an Innuit. Popcorn Sweater : Rebeca Taylor • V-neck sweater : Inhabit NY • Jeans : G-Star • Wool Beret : Nordstroms • Sunglasses : Target • Faux Shearling Wedges : Some place in Seoul.

Perfect outfit as always! Your boots and glasses are L O V E L Y and you don’t look like you’re freezing at all. When I freeze my nose turns red :)

Ahhh! There are so many things that look great here! The beret without looking too frenchy, the shades and the sweater! And the boots. Love it all! Bravo.

Adorable pictures. How do you do it? I’m becoming a jellus h8er.

Love the wedges.

Whenever I eat popcorn it ends up in my bra.

I have so much trouble taking pictures when it is cold out. Especially taking decent shots. Today I tromped around in little gold flats in chunky snowy ice. Not. Fun.

I love this popcorn sweater and I LOOOOVE those boots. You look so darling!

A fab find indeed! And these shots remind me that a cuff bracelet can look super cool worn over a long sleeve.

I’m drowning in the stinkin’ humidity so the idea of cooler weather is very appealing. Your boots are aging beautifully.

I always love a look that involves a beret! Those boots are great, they seem really practical without losing the possibility for warmth!

Okay, THANK YOU for noting how difficult it is to take self-portraits, especially outside in the cold! I swear, it takes me an hour to get two decent shots. I was starting (fine, continuing) to think I’m mentally challenged.

Love the outfit, too. The boots are perfect.

Your popcorn sweater is adorable but I am really in love with those boots!! I too have been living in sweaters minus the chilly month in Europe. A wool coat was needed there. Knits are my favorite!!

I am having the same problems with cold and outfit pics. I know they look better outside but I’m afraid, I anot as brave as you and just take my pics inside. The outfit looks great thought. Those wedge boots are amazing.
