In my search for long tops to wear with leggings, I tried on everything under the sun except angora/hair because it makes me sneeze. It turns out that Eileen Fisher merino wool jersey doesn't bother me in the slightest, even against bare skin! I'm quite surprised. I found two boyfriend cardigans at NR -- one in gray (hooray, been looking for this for months) and a bright reddish orange. I LOVE orange but know that different shades don't always love me, so I've passed on a few orange tops lately. I think this one is a good fit for me.
I paired it with a VC tube skirt for church, because lately I feel like the tube skirts are a little too va-va-voom on me. The long cardi toned it down.
I also finally chopped these gray bootcut cords into skinnies. While gray bootcuts were a workhorse for me a few years ago, this fall I haven't been reaching for this pair I found over the summer. A few weeks ago, I decided I wanted to add gray skinny jeans to my wardrobe. Then I remembered that I'd used this tutorial to turn straights into skinnies last year, and thought I'd try it again with my cords. I'll wear them this week and take photos with better lighting! But this is the gist of it.
