This Fall: Sweaters!

This Fall, sweaters are stepping up in a big expensive way.   As I was flipping through my magazines and browsing the world wide web, I kept seeing Intarsia sweaters.  Yes, Intarsia!  The term was not familiar to me, so I looked it up.  Well, Intarsia is a form of knitting resembling a mosaic pattern that is visible on both sides of the fabric.  Just think of those terrible Christmas sweaters.  Ha!   I definitely didn't know that type of knit was called Intarsia.  Well, it's surely a classic knit and it's huge for the upcoming season.  They are a bit heavy on the pockets, but I found a few that were a bit lighter.   Intarsia, embellished, or printed;  the sweater is looking real exciting for Fall!   Nothing like a cozy sweater! 


Here are some of my fav cozies...

Wednesday Style Steal: Sister Swap?

While doing my daily blog reading, I realized something really cute...well, at least to me.  I noticed that Beyonce and Solange have the same yellow suede pumps or one of them is wearing the other sister's shoes.  Check it...

Ankled, Buckled, and Cubed...

A bit of a break from Wednesday Style Steal this week.  It's already been a rough week, but I am pressing on.  Some serious packing going on over here as well as me being a bit under the weather.  Not feeling really energetic this week.  Just ready to be in the new house and skip all the chaos of packing and purging. No fun!

Anyway, lets talk about this ankle, buckle, and cubed heel sandal for Spring.   A bit matronly to me, but it's sort of growing on me.  Great paired with a skinny or palazzo pant with a cute blazer as well as a tunic or shift dress.  My favorites are the black Sam Edelman, cream See by Chloe, and orange/camel Vince Camuto.




 What are your favs? Are you feeling it?
