I can't believe it's Ash Wednesday! It seems so early in the year still! Wasn't it Christmas just the other day? I wore this to morning mass and work today. Nothing new to see with the outfit, however I wanted to point out how versatile this sweater has been for me. I've had it just since New Year's Day and have already worn it 3 times. There are items I've had for a year that I haven't worn 3 times, so it's definitely a winner for me. I was tempted to buy the burgundy version when it showed up on popback but really, I need to reduce the amount of multiples I buy! Anyway, lately my colorful soul has rather enjoyed wearing more neutral outfits. Of course I'll always prefer color, but I'm definitely learning to appreciate more muted ensembles like this sweater and skirt.
What are you giving up for Lent? I should give up shopping, (snort) but instead I'm giving up bread. I'd rather sacrifice carbs than J.Crew. Of course, I tried to give up bread last year and failed miserably, so let's hope my willpower (Catholic sacrifice power?) is better this year.
Thanks for visiting!
So jealous of this sweater! I keep watching it on pop back but it never comes in my size :( hahaha I have to agree with you on Lent - I should blog the J. Crew website and delete myself off the mailing list :P
ReplyDeleteWell you never know it may still pop back in your size!
DeleteI gave up shopping and put myself back on South Beach. We'll see how long that lasts...
ReplyDeleteLove that sweater!
Very ambitious of you!
DeleteThanks!
i would give up shopping but with london and paris next month that's just not happening. :P i do try to do nicer things and pay it forward during lent.
ReplyDeletetotally kicking myself for not getting this sweater!
I agree, you can't limited shopping when you go to Europe! Nice goal during Lent!
