This vintage pink sweater is one of many treasures in my Etsy shop. ^___^ It's cozy and roomy. <3 Also, I find that the pastel pink is a fun color to work with for cold weather outfits. It would be so easy to style for Spring. Just add your favorite kind of florals and you're done. Hehe. I think colors such as deep navy, charcoal grey and grass green would pair nicely with the sweater for Fall. Since Winter and XMAS are fast approaching, I decided to show you guys one way to style it for the coming holiday season.

This outfit is something I would totally wear to a holiday party. If they've got a backyard with a chiminea (and some stiff hot toddies...haha), I'd be all set. ;D I've always liked the way pink and red look together and, though the red high waisted shorts are quite bright, I think the navy peacoat helps temper that a bit. I added the neutral tights,
black satchel and understated vintage oxfords to help accentuate the color blocking. I think that adding any more bright colors to the mix would have been distracting.

Picture

To satisfy my incessant need to add complexity to my outfits, I donned a colorful multi-pattern winter hat. Many of the colors in the hat are either represented in the outfit or further compliment the outfit in some way. The hat added just the right amount of whimsicality and it made the outfit more interesting.

Tony! Toni! Tone! - Feels Good

Dancin' all over Winter's face and it feels good. >;D I had a hankerin' for something retro. I already had the hair style. Hehe. I just needed an outfit to match. So, I grabbed this awesome diamond patterned vintage retro sweater and paired it with a pupil shatteringly bright fuchsia coat and voila! <3 <3 <3

Picture

Essentially, I tried to have my cake and eat it, too. By that, I mean that I gave in to the desire to wear dark colors, but I tried to make up for that display of weakness by adding as many bright colors as I could. Also a perfect excuse to wear the zippered and studded blue bag, which hasn't been used in quite some time. I'm picky about how I wear it. >_< I thought I'd regret wearing the high waisted black shorts and ripped polka dot tights, but the weather was quite mild for the first week of December.

Oh and I should mention that those aren't factory rips in the tights. I...kinda...did...that. You see, what happened was, when I put the tights on, I discovered a gnarly rip that started at the left thigh and went all the way down to my ankle. The rest of the tights was fine. I was beyond annoyed. I wondered about what I should do and then I took a pair of scissors and cut random holes into it. Then I went at it with a cheese grater. Haha. After that, I went from looking like I had an unfortunate accident to looking like a trendy fashionista. Thank goodness for the whole 'ripped tights are super edgy' thing. Hehe. ;)

I hope you enjoyed this colorful, quirky, retro ensemble! Happy Tuesday! <3 <3 <3
