After my last post and the Christmas Day outfit post where I was really dressed up, it's nice to get back to casual jeans and comfy sweaters. I bought this raccoon sweater from ASOS before Christmas, so I guess I've finally jumped on the animal-on-my-sweater bandwagon... I couldn't resist.
The birdcage necklace was a Christmas present from my sister - she had it bespoke made locally, it's soooo pretty I think. So two animals today.
I hope you're all easing yourselves into 2013 slowly? Thankfully Friday has come around really quickly: happy weekend everyone!

The sweater looks so good on you, cozy, casual and fun. I don't think could pull off an animal sweater, it would just look....weird. It's the same with any animal print, I just don't look good in them. So i shall live vicariously through you! Huzzah!
ReplyDeleteI like your blog so much! :-)

DeleteHow cute!!! Wish I could find an animal sweater as cute as this before Spring hahaha!!!

That sweater is adorable and I am in love with those shoes.
ReplyDeleteCute, cute, adorable!! xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteI really like this sweater and I love your shoes. A very casual and beautiful outfit.
ReplyDeleteI love your shoes. As for the sweater.... when I was young I had these kind of sweaters. So to me it is a matter of: "done that, been there". That is what you get with age LOL. Is also reminds me a bit of Bridget Jones, although you look a whole lot nicer in it. Very well styled with all the other things. You are a master at that.
ReplyDeleteHi Catherine! I think the animal sweater trend is cute. I have yet to find the one I just can't live without though. This week I'm asking all my favorite bloggers to please try an outfit with a men's tie. I know you could make this look really stylish. I hope you will participate.
ReplyDeleteI saw some really cute animal sweaters - in the kids' department of course, way too small. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the necklace, what a nice present!
That is one of the cutest sweater I've ever seen. Also, I love how you paired it up with those brogues. It's a very well put together outfit!

Usually a lurker, I have to chime in and say how much I love that critter sweater. My goal is to shop secondhand this year, but I don't think a critter sweater is going to show up in thrift stores any time soon. I'll be checking out ASOS!
