{ outfitted } Ski Lodge Chic

Old Man Winter and I are looking into a divorce. We were getting along fine for the first 26 years of our relationship, but I've reached the end of my rope this year. Slipping on the ice, cars getting stuck in snow, salt stains on my pants ... well, I'm tired of it. And just when I'm about ready to book a flight to a warm locale, I reconsider my wardrobe. I don't think I could ever retire knits and wool in favor of a bikini (but feel free to twist my arm).

Outfit Notes: Sweater - J.Crew*; Earrings - J.Crew; Bag - Foley & Corinna via a giveaway on MyFDB; Skirt - Max Studios; Tights - Simply Vera by Vera Wang; Bracelet - Melinda Maria**; Shoes - Jeffery Campbell

*If you're considering this sweater, go down a size. I'm wearing an XS and I'm a size 6.
**Carrie at This Free Bird is currently featuring a Melinda Maria coupon code for 30% off. Head to her blog for the details. (And follow her blog because she's all kinds of fabulous.)

  8. great sweater, great cuff! we are having the opposite problem in az — unseasonably warm temps. i have accumulated some great jackets in the past few years, and i'd really like a chance to wear 'em.

  11. I have those earrings from J. Crew (I used to work there until recently) and they are one of my favorites!!


    This is super cute. I agree with you, I prefer warmer weather by far, but I have an easier time dressing for winter weather...so conflicting.

  14. I agree with you on this! I can't stand winter for more than a few weeks, but then I really love warm knits. Your sweater looks especially cozy and pretty at the same time!

  16. that bag is so lovely - what a great giveaway win!

    And it is soo cold. I bought fleece pants. I never thought I'd be a fleece pant owner, but the moment I get in the door after a day at work I make a beeline for them and they are my world of warm and cozy.

    Chic on the Cheap

  21. Jessica that cuff is fantastic on you!! Holy moses I love the entire outfit...the little bag is SO AWESOME. I got one for my sis-in-law for Christmas and scored over 50% off - seeing it on you I wish I would have picked one up for me. Stunning outfit head-to-toe. And why didn't I grab that cuff?? I feel a post-Christmas gift to self coming on...
