This is actually a new-to-me combination, but I figured what could be more me than Layered Handknits?

One of my signature looks is a cropped sweater over a longer lightweight flowy tunic, skinny jeans, and boots (see the last picture for an example). However, the forecast for this week is pretty much arctic, so I knew I wouldn't be able to wear this look without freezing (the cropped sweater + lightweight tunic + mid rise jeans = cold midsection). I decided to switch it up a bit and use a handknit tunic (it's knit in a thinner gauge yarn so is not too bulky but still a lot warmer than the thin woven tunics) and a slightly less cropped pullover on top. I think it works.

Didn't have time to snap a full outerwear picture this morning, but I included a selfie to show my handknit beret and gigantic blanket scarf (which is crucial for super cold commutes!).

Also very "me": teal, pattern mixing (both within the pullover itself and more subtly with the basketweave pattern on the tunic), 90's esque faded black jeans (I know they just look like regular black in the photos though), tall boots, and handknit accessories.
