Good afternoon, gorgeous. It's Friday and I am super stoked on the weekend. I need it. Assuming you do as well...
As Fashion week(s) came to an end and I processed all the looks for next Spring, I found myself firmly grounded in right here, right now. And though today is not exactly sweater weather, I'm looking forward to a full on Fall moment and living in the present when it comes to fashion.
I'm DYING over the latest sweater shop I'm seeing everywhere from the Gap to APC to Margiela. It's the chunky, oversized turtleneck sweater, most of the time ribbed or roll necked, and all the time fabulous. The newest way to wear this look is with a skirt that's full and somewhat tea length as shown above on this fabulous person at one Fashion Week or another. It was shot by Tommy Ton and it's everything I want for my look this Fall. And then for those a bit more conservative, this type of sweater is amazing with leggings and booties or with a short leather wrap skirt and bare legs, perhaps with a crossbody bag situation to break up the silhouette.
If you want to get in on the action, check out the GAP version as a way to support this trend and not go broke. However, if you want to support this trend and not your mortgage payment, go for this La Garconne version or of course, the Mac Daddy Margiela, which I first spotted in Japan and have dreamt about ever since. Here they are below.
Margiela baby!!
And just for kicks, here's a couple more where those came from from Alice and Olivia and DKNY Pure, just for inspiration...
I love this look and will continue to have Margiela turtleneck inspired dreams. I know. Weird.
Cause that's what's up this cozy and well dressed Friday in the 212- cheers to the weekend. Yours, in fashion. XO
